Industry 4.0. Possibility of control, monitoring and data collection on company management system.
How it Works
Alchemist combines the adiabatic cooling principle with refrigerant fluid subcooling to increase system efficiency. It is installed downstream of the condenser and/or gas cooler.
- Dry operation: external air is drawn in and conveyed onto the finned coils. The humidification process is deactivated, no water is present and the humidifier pack is dry.
The subcooling readings by temperature probes modulate fan speed to optimise power use. - Adiabatic operation: external air is drawn in and passed through the humidifier pack (protected inside the machine). The adiabatically cooled air (therefore at a lower temperature than the external air) is conveyed to the finned coils thus increasing the frigorific fluid subcooling. The subcooling readings by temperature probes modulate fan speed and adiabatic cycles to minimise power/water use.
Patent MITA 17194148.7.

Environmental and economic sustainability of each MITA adiabatic subcooler
- Minimal use of water (only for adiabatic operation), useful for facilitating heat transfer (i.e., cooling of the process fluid).
- Optimized energy use (higher efficiency due to adiabatic supply).
- Falls within the product categories that MITA is able to regenerate.
- Indication of “carbon footprint” from the MITA team.
