Energy Savings

The rapid development of evaporative cooling in HVAC applications is certainly due to its extremely low energy impact. If we compare the energy cost for Evaporative Cooling with that of other typical air transformation methods (for example air cooling using chillers), we note that the energy savings is significant. Adiabatic humidification is also much more efficient energy-wise when compared to steam emission.  The only energy required is the pressurisation of the water, which is sent to the atomising nozzles by a pump. Consumption is about 4...8 W for every l/h of nebulised water.

• Easy system arrangement
  The control cabinet, the new ventilation heads and the quick-coupling hose kits allow an extremely easy system arrangement, even if the staff is less skilled and has no special tools;
   
• Evaporation
  The spontaneous evaporation of water droplets in the air removes sensible heat from the environment (0.69 kW for each litre of water that evaporates), with only 4 W of electric power per litre of atomised water;
   
• Always fresh and clean water
  Automatic flushing and filling procedures and connections to the water cleaning systems by reverse osmosis always distribute fresh and clean water in the ambient;
   
• Drainage valves
  Drainage valves and flushing cycles to avoid water stagnation;
   
• Cleaning
  Materials used which do not contribute to bacterial growth; can be used with demineralized water, softened water or mains water.

By combining evaporative cooling and adiabatic humidifying, optiMist ensures overall energy savings in the air handling unit. For more information, see 'Benefits'.
