Specifications and Product Details:

Product Range
CIG makes virtually every type of round tube / plate fin (RTPF) coil and heat exchanger, including water coils, condenser coils, and evaporator coils, for both air conditioning and refrigeration, whether for residential OEM air conditioners or one-off made-to-fit and custom commercial coils. We make transport refrigeration coils, truck and bus air conditioning coils, marine coils, and industrial coils. We make coils. Any kind, any size, we can do it.

Quality Products
We use seamless copper and aluminum tubes mechanically expanded into full collar, aluminum or copper fins. Our three factories are highly automated, with automated fin press machines, hairpin benders, CNC machines, auto-brazing machinery, as well as the latest testing technology.

Coil Capabilities
We can handle almost any coil for both air conditioning and refrigeration: condenser coils, evaporator coils, and fluid coolers.

Tube sizes: 5mm, 1/4 inch, 7mm, 5/16 inch (7.94mm), 3/8 inch (9.52mm), 1/2 inch and 5/8 inch
Tube thickness: we stock a variety of thicknesses for most tube sizes
Tube and fin materials: aluminum, copper, aluminum clad copper, cupro/nickel, and stainless steel

Contract Manufacturing
CIG manufactures a large volume of products under contract for many of the world's major air conditioning and refrigeration companies. We're ISO 9001:2008 certified with three fully-equipped factories and more than 1,000 workers. And we have the capacity to meet heavy OEM demand.

We offer competitive pricing and most-favored-customer pricing, material cost adjustments, productivity cost adjustments, and redundant audits and inspections. For new product development, we work closely with our partners to make prototypes for approval.

Cutom Made Replacement Coils

A substantial part of our business is making one-off replacement coils. This the most demanding product for our engineers - to build a coil that replaces a coil in service, where the coil has to fit perfectly and match the required load. We have more than 30 engineers and draftsman and we use the latest coil selection and rating software.

Leak Testing

We operate four types of leak testing, including water tank testing, helium sniffer testing, fatigue testing and burst testing. Every coil and connecter that we make gets tested for leaks.

Bubble Leak Test . Every coil is subjected to an underwater bubble leak test at a minimum 380 psi. For higher pressure applications, we apply 600 psi up to 1,000 psi, according to our customer specifications. Tests are normally conducted for 10 minutes to identify leaks in brazing, which are then identified, marked and repaired.

Helium Vacuum Chamber Leak Test. Our #2 Factory in Chonburi is also equipped with a helium vacuum chamber to test for leaks per customer specification. A coil is placed in the enclosed vacuum chamber and then filled with helium gas. The leak detection is performed by a helium mass spectrometer that can detect even a few nanograms of escaped helium.

Helium Sniffer Leak Test. Our factories are also equipped with portable helium leak detectors. Specifically, we offer, according to customer specifications, full-time leak testing on the factory line by mass spectrometer leak sniffers that are made specifically for the HVAC industry.

Design and Performance Testing

In addition to the daily leak testing that we offer for each and every coil, we also perform tests on all new designs or specifications, including fatigue testing and burst testing. The industry trend toward smaller aluminum tubes and higher pressure calls for periodic testing to insure confidence in the final product.

Our Factories

We currently operate three factories in the outskirts of Bangkok, Thailand, with a total of more than 30,000 square meters and employing more than 1,000 workers. Factory #1 in Pathumthani produces a variety of copper coils and heat exchangers. Factory #2 in Chonburi concentrates largely on OEM coils for air conditioners and is currently being converted to an all-aluminum coil facility. Factory #3 in Samutprakan is mostly dedicated to manufacturing automotive coils and small refrigeration coils. All of these factories are a short drive from Bangkok, and only a short distance from the ports of Bangkok and Laem Chabang for shipping to Asian and Middle Eastern markets, as well as North America.

Our Capabilities

Our customers can trust their custom designs to CIG's experienced factory-trained engineering staff. CIG prides itself in a wide variety in materials and designs. We have earned the following quality, safety, and performance certifications on selected products: ASME Section VIII, ARI-410, CRN, CSA, CE, PED, UL, and WRAS.
