A condenser, a type of heat exchanger, condenses refrigerant vapor into liquid by removing heat.
Water-cooled condensers utilize circulating water for heat absorption, with types such as double tube, shell and coil, and shell and tube.
An evaporative condenser distinguishes itself by employing both air and water for cooling.
In an evaporative condenser, refrigerant cooling is achieved through water evaporation and airflow, not solely by water circulation.
Consequently, an evaporative condenser is not exclusively water-cooled, making it the accurate choice.
