Dry Cooler Air Filter Solutions
Permatron's PreVent® air intake filters provide the
first line of defense in preventing debris from entering
dry cooler systems. Cottonwood seeds, leaves, pollen, paper debris,
industrial waste, nesting birds, construction debris and insects
are continuously drawn into air intakes costing thousands of
dollars and man hours on equipment repair downtime and
maintenance. Facilities' utilize dry cooler units to
take the heat load out of buildings and keep vast computer and
other electronic systems running cool. With air intake air
flow rates of 20,000+, airborne debris frequently gets pulled into
the unit, coating fins and coils. Without frequent cleaning,
this causes heat build-up, higher discharge pressure and amp
draws. Reduced air flow causes equipment to run for longer
cycle times, at reduced capacity, decreased life expectancy,
increased filter changes and escalating power costs.
Case Studies
- Jackson National Life Dry Cooler Screens
Every piece of equipment, large or small, stationary or mobile, indoors or outdoors, needs preventative maintenance. Dirt, debris and grease are continually coating and insulating equipment coils, electronic systems, motors, fins and other components that fall in the path of the equipment's air intake. Airflow obstructions of any kind are a costly expense. The Jackson National Life facility utilizes five rooftop mounted Liebert glycol dry cooler units to take the heat load out of the building and keep the vast computer systems running cool. These units were requiring frequent cleaning, which took up a huge block of man hours and equipment downtime.
