Advantages of the use of evaporative cooling

The Group of Manufacturers of Evaporative Cooling of AEFYT (Spanish Association of the Cold and his Technologies) calls to engineering and installers so that they value the advantages provided by the teams of evaporative cooling, bet for its use and recommend its use in those projects in that turns out to be the most efficient technology.

AEFYT has noted how, often, priority is given to other less efficient technologies from the energy point of view compared to water condensation systems – cooling towers and evaporative condensers – which can offer savings in consumption up to 45% in relation to certain alternatives, such as air condensation.

For this reason, the Group of Manufacturers of Evaporative Cooling has considered opportune to make an appeal to engineers and installers. Why should these professionals recommend the use of evaporative cooling? In the opinion of Manuel Lamúa, manager of AEFYT, “the criteria of technological neutrality that guarantee reliability, energy efficiency and cost-quality ratio, play in favor of evaporative cooling. Betting on this technology benefits the whole industry. ”

Indeed, evaporative cooling offers important advantages in each of these three aspects, as it constitutes one of the most efficient alternatives in the field of industrial refrigeration, uses a technology that respects the environment, requires an investment lower than the one demanded by similar solutions and, above all, it is safe for human health.

In this last aspect, a simple and economic maintenance of the equipment is sufficient to guarantee the safety, the bacteriological control and the correct functioning of the equipment. The control of the facilities will help maintain thermal performance and prevent the growth of potentially harmful micro-organisms, such as Legionella. In this sense, it is enough to remember that for more than two years there has been no outbreak of legionellosis linked to cooling towers.

On the other hand, currently the design of evaporative cooling equipment includes numerous improvements designed to facilitate maintenance tasks and to eliminate conditions that favor the multiplication of bacteria and to minimize the dragging of water aerosols in the discharge of air from equipment. Among them, it is worth mentioning the low pressure sprayers that minimize the water drag, the water distribution systems without spraying (by gravity), the removable and anti-legionella fillers, the high efficiency and anti-Legionella drop removers, the combined action filters and improvements in the accessibility of the towers to perform a better cleaning, among others.

Regarding the economic aspect, the evaporative cooling favors the reduction of the consumed electrical energy, as well as the decrease of the water consumption. The initial average investment is lower than other systems and allows a quick return.

The value of the installers in the cold industry is indisputable, it is the link between the manufacturers of evaporative cooling equipment -torres and condensers- and the end users. Its work, linked to the design, installation and maintenance of equipment, is a priority for the proper functioning of the chain. Its effort and its commitment to control, maintenance and inspection, over the last few years, has contributed to increase the safety of this technology, as well as the expansion of its use.

For more information, do not hesitate to contact Control y Ventilación, S.L. manufacturer of cooling towers NUCLEOS, and evaporative cooling, HUMIBAT, using in both lines as filler and separator of drops of high efficiency, PANAL C&V and SEPARADOR C&V, both made of high density polyethylene, flexible plastic easy to clean and maintenance , as well as easy replacement, and with high maximized and constant yields.
