Comparison Chart
Three ethanol chillers, one production-class decision.
| Spec / Fit | BLAST 60/45 | BLAST 150/45 | BLAST 240/45 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ethanol capacity | 60 gallons | 150 gallons | 240 gallons |
| Pull-down target | Room temperature to −40 °C | Room temperature to −40 °C | Room temperature to −40 °C |
| Target timing | 45 minutes | 45 minutes | 45 minutes |
| Flash-chilling rate | 1.33 GPM | 3.33 GPM | 6.0 GPM |
| Best production fit | Compact production | Mid-scale production | Large process class |
| Workflow match | 30-gallon centrifuge or 2x 15-gallon workflow | Growing commercial extraction schedules | Higher-volume extraction schedules |
| System architecture | Dual-stage cascade design | Direct refrigerant chilling | Direct refrigerant chilling |
| Controls | PLC/HMI visibility | PLC/HMI visibility | PLC/HMI visibility |
| Facility integration | Outdoor condenser units | HVAC condenser integration | HVAC condenser integration |
Quick Recommendation
Use the chiller size that matches the bottleneck you are solving.
Choose 60/45 for compact speed
Best when the workflow centers on a 30-gallon centrifuge class and the facility wants a serviceable, lower-temperature cascade design.
Choose 150/45 for the middle lane
Best when production has moved past pilot scale and needs more chilling capacity without stepping into the largest process class.
Choose 240/45 for volume
Best when the operation needs the largest BLAST ethanol capacity, faster schedule support, and room for higher production volume.
