Abstract

Cooling plant for a “cooled” fluid, able to cool and/or dry the fluid by means of cooling substantially to a pre-established temperature, the plant comprising a heat exchanger (17), to cool the fluid, by means of heat exchange with a “cooling” fluid inserted in a cooling unit (11) comprising a cooling circuit (13) able to feed the cooling fluid to the heat exchanger (17), the cooling unit (11) comprising at least a condensation device (15), able to take the cooling fluid to within desired parameters of pressure and/or temperature. The plant also comprises regulation means (19) able to detect the temperature of the fluid to be controlled, and to act on the condensation device (15) in order to vary the parameters of pressure and/or temperature of the cooling fluid.
