In most industrial buildings, heat buildup is a problem. The temperature is constantly creeping up due to the use of equipment, the lack of air circulation and the presence of manufacturing processes that generate heat.
Cooling these large facilities using traditional types of air conditioning systems is largely ineffective and also extremely cost prohibitive. Not only is the installation a significant cost, but the long-term power use and the continued maintenance of the system are also budget issues to consider.
A Viable Option
A better option and one this incredibly effective and efficient is the use of industrial cooling fans. These fans, which use a combination of air flow and mist, create flash evaporation of the micron sized droplets produced from the misting nozzles. This flash evaporation draws heat energy from the surrounding air.
Without the addition of the extremely fine mist, which is actually more like a fog, the fans just blow around the already hot air. Moving hot air doesn’t add to the temperature control, but pushing the air that is up to 40 degrees cooler from the flash evaporation provides a very significant cooling effect.
Installation and Maintenance
The different manufacturers may have different options for installation, so it is worthwhile making a comparison of systems. The best industrial cooling fans for a simple, low-cost installation can be mounted to existing ceilings or walls and have a deflector plate that allows for precise focus on the fog or a more general dispersion pattern.
Maintenance of the system will be basic. With regular use the best industrial cooling fans will just need infrequent cleaning of the nozzles and, if the system is used daily, this may not be required.
In addition to just cooling the air temperature, these fans can also be very effective in eliminating airborne dust and particulate matter as well as providing the ideal humidification level for any processing, manufacturing or storage space.
