HOW EVAPORATIVE AIR COOLERS WORK
The air cooler cools the air by means of evaporation. When water evaporates into the air,
the result is a mixture of air and water molecules. This chemical change requires heat
which is taken from the water molecules, resulting in a spot cooling effect.
- The recommended relative humidity for optimal operation is 60% or less.
A drier climate allows for more noticeable cooling.
- The evaporative air cooler should not be used in enclosed or sealed spaces.
Nor in spaces with everything open with too much ventilation.
- As shown in the valid figure,
The cooler should be located near a single open window and everything else
closed. The opening of the window must be just enough to channel the air that enters
from the outside towards the appliance, as far as possible.
- In view of the above, the effectiveness of the device will depend on the temperature of the
outside air.
Greater effectiveness will be noticed on days when there is no air or with slightly warm air.
On days with very hot off-road air, the device will be less effective.
- There should always be water in the tank while it is in operation.
- When the product is used for the first time, the Honeycomb cooling media
will have an odour, this should dissipate after a week of use.
