Keeping cool is now a breeze September 1st 2007 Working on the mezzanine floor in
VDC Group's distribution centre in
Park Royal, London, has become a
breeze, following the installation of
the Breezair Evaporative Cooling
System from Seeley International.
Specified and installed by Clean
Air Group, the system has reduced
temperature highs of 38°C into
comfortable working temperatures
of 22°C. Following a site survey, it
was agreed that the mezzanine
would require four Breezair coolers
strategically placed on the outside
of the warehouse and distribution
centre. This enables cool fresh air
to be introduced into the building
via galvanised ducting dropping
vertically down with distribution
ductwork and four-way plenums
directing air within the packaging
area. The Breezair system is
controlled by Seeley International's
Industrial Wall Control (IWC). The
IWC identifies any faulty cooler in a
group and the cooler electronic
module provides comprehensive
fault diagnostics enabling it to be
quickly repaired.
Breezair coolers contain large
high efficiency cooling pads that
are kept wet by a pump and water
distribution system. Air is drawn
through the pads by a powerful fan
and is cooled by the evaporative
process, providing a constant flow
of naturally cooled, fresh air,
without any air being recirculated.
The evaporative process is
particularly good for sealed,
hygienic environments as most
contaminants within the water
supply are scrubbed out within the
air cooler and do not pass through
the cooler into the cooled zones. More articles from Seeley International Ltd: |
