Air Blast Coolers

Achieving up to 100% free cooling, our innovative air blast coolers provide significant energy, cost and carbon savings, and all at a competitive price.

Air blast coolers, such as the DCOOLER, work by providing a cooling source during times of the year when the ambient temperature is below that required by the cooling system. Air blast cooling utilises fans to draw in ambient air, using this to pre-cool process fluid before it reaches the chiller. Our air blast cooling solutions make for a clean and reliable system that enhances the energy efficiency of your business.

Advantages of air blast coolers:

• Achieves up to 100% free cooling
• ROI typically 12-30 months
• Easily retrofitted to existing cooling system
• Modular stainless steel construction
• Suitable for outside installation
• Fitted with removable panels
• Temperature and fan speed control
• Optional spray kit to optimise performance
• Cooling capacity from 63 kW to 920 kW

Comprehensive air blast cooler services

Our air blast cooling units can be easily retrofitted onto an existing system with minimal disruption and can achieve energy savings immediately. Through our bespoke cooling system design service and expertise in installation, we can ensure that your air blast cooler is easily integrated into your cooling system. Most of our Air Blast Coolers have a return on investment schedule of 12 months – 2.5 years.

To further improve the performance of the DCOOLER, units can be retrofitted with a spray kit to achieve close to wet bulb temperatures. Our cooling system maintenance service means that we can ensure the longevity of your entire cooling system.

RESULTS OUR CLIENTS HAVE ACHIEVED WITH AIR BLAST FREE COOLING:

“We used to have the chillers running all year round. Now, as soon as the temperature is below 16°C, the cooling tower and plate heat exchanger kick in and offload the compressors. Below 10°C we run on 100% free cooling so when the temperature drops, so do our running costs – it’s fantastic.”

Steve Ellis, Operations Director, Alma Products

“Below 18°C we operate at partial free cooling, however, the chillers switch off below 12°C. Last winter we were able to switch the chillers off completely, and from September we’ve been running on partial free cooling.”

Ian Renshaw, Operations Manager, RPC Containers

“We were asked to look out for investments that would benefit the company, and IsoCool, who run the maintenance contract on our chilled water system, suggested that an air blast cooler would provide an excellent ROI by lowering costs. Nigel took me to another site where they’d installed free cooling and the company were kind enough to print off their energy savings for me, which were phenomenal. Considering our chiller had been working really hard throughout the previous winter, it was really a no brainer to invest in an air blast cooler.”

Steve Cadman, Injection Mould Manager at Gratnells
