Prevent your cooling system from shutting down

Even in temperate climates, such as the Netherlands, regular heat waves nowadays cause temperatures to rise above 30°C. This creates a need for adaptive and flexible cooling that is also energy efficient.

Standard mechanical cooling systems are often unavailable or expensive because they require extensive piping and large cooling installations. Fot the average of approximately 60 peak days per year, a simple, flexible and relatively inexpensive solution is therefore needed.

Our adiabatic cooling can offer this solution, by atomising and evaporising.

Cumulus® systems are smart and practical: the drinking water is treated using water treatment and fed to the high-pressure nozzles via the high-pressure pump. The fine water mist evaporates and provides adiabatic cooling. The cooler outside air allows the condensers to dissipate their heat more effectively and prevents the pressure in the cooling system from rising too high. This prevents condenser failure.

The finely tunes components are the core of the  Cumulus® system, and the simple design guarantees flexible and easy use. All parts are low-maintenance, durable and highly reliable.

Cumulus® saves energy and increases your cooling capacity without propellants, refrigerants or solvents.

The integrated automatic control switches the system on based on the outside temperature or the pressure on the cooling system. Based on numerous experiences, the system will be in operation for approximately 60 days per year in the Netherlands and Belgium. In warmer areas, this will be even more.

The droplets from the high-pressure nozzles are so fine that they turn into gas. The energy needed for this forced evaporation comes from the atmosphere and cools the air (called adiabatic cooling).

Depreciation as a result of lower energy consumption. Thanks to their increased efficiency, the condensers consume significantly less energy while maintaining the same power output.

With 2 kW, you can generate approx. 275 kW of cooling capacity!

Every litre water evaporated results in 0.68 kW of cooling!

The payback period for the installation is often less than a year!

We were recently asked to visit a factory that was equipped with a cooling system from another supplier. It was not working properly and it was thought that the nozzles might be clogged. A water softener has been installed, but no reverse osmosis system.

We observed:

• Large puddles of collected water on the roof.
• Water was being sprayed directly onto the fins.
• Algae and other organic material growing on the cooler.
• The constant flow of water sprayed onto the fins had caused considerable damage, and the fins were covered in corrosion.
• The unit was covered with a white layer of minerals and salts from the unfiltered water.
• The nozzles were full of limescale.

A Cumulus® system includes the right water treatment. Reverse osmosis removes minerals and bacteria, including Legionella, from the water for safe and problem-free humidification. The droplets of the high-pressure nozzles are so fine that they turn into a gaseous state, which prevents the formation of puddles, among other things. All this ensures enormous controllability and water savings. The atomisation is Legionella safe.
