Cabinet cooling solutions get eco-friendly
Following the successful launch of its cool efficiency 1kW cooling unit, Rittal has now added a 2kW unit to the portfolio. The cool efficiency products are said to be up to 45% more economical than conventional cooling units of the same cooling output in both running costs and CO2 emissions. The units have been developed using the latest EC fan technology and incorporate the Rittal nano-coated condenser and condensate management as standard.
The new cool efficiency label from Rittal, in accordance with DIN EN ISO 14021, identifies all cooling systems that make a significant contribution to environmental protection. These new cooling systems are claimed to far exceed the requirements of DIN 3168 and meet all three requirements of the new efficiency label.
In heavily contaminated environ-ments it is vital to keep units clean in order to maintain efficiency. Over time, performance can deteriorate between 30 to 50% if membranes become dirty, leading to an increase in CO2 emissions. RiNano is a thin coating that repels oil, dust and powder particles preventing them from attaching to the condensers. In industrial operations in particular, the air is often so contaminated with dust and dirt particles that the filter mats used in traditional cooling units have to be replaced and disposed of in a short space of time. With Rittal TopTherm PLUS and RiNano technology filter mats become obsolete.
