How do water coolers work? Our explanations
Adiabatic air cooler, water-cooled cooler, chiller… all terms that ultimately mean the same thing. But what is a cooler? What are the specifics of the technology used, and how effective is it? FoxAir, the specialist in mobile adiabatic coolers, explains everything and presents its services…
Adiabatic air coolers: a technology as efficient as it is natural
The professional air fresheners we offer work by reproducing the phenomenon of evaporation observed in nature. This technique is as simple as it is environmentally friendly, and has been used around the world for decades.
The principle is as follows: you fill the device’s water tank with fresh water, and plug it into the mains. The cooler then draws in hot, dry air and passes it through a moist pad. The cooled air is then redistributed inside the room.
This transformation process is said to be adiabatic, as it neither contributes heat nor recovers it, unlike other types of appliance such as a fan, which blows hot air.
The cooler operates via its water tank, which incorporates a submersible pump to allow water to trickle down onto the pad. It is then expelled into the room by the unit’s fan, which generates no heat.
Particularly effective when outside temperatures are high and humidity low, this device can, for example, reduce the temperature by 15° if the outside temperature is 36°C and humidity 20°C.
A professional range to cover every need
FoxAir is a specialist in mobile air coolers. Our range is made up of units with different power ratings, to best suit large premises.
With our FoxAir250 model (our entry-level model), for example, it is possible to cool an area of 90m².
Whether you opt for a single unit to air-condition your premises, or for several, you’ll be able to cool several hundred m² with our products.
Their castors make them easy to move around and place near machines or computers.
This makes it the ideal solution for both long-term and short-term air conditioning.
