Jacir announces the commissioning of its first ONYX adiabatic condenser (NH3) in Brive La Gaillarde (France), which will be used in the food industry.
Without water drop into the air flow (confirmed by independent laboratory test), the ONYX range integrates the latest technological innovations for optimal and safe performances while saving 80-95% water compared to a traditional evaporative condenser.
Technical features
The ONYX adiabatic condenser is a heat exchanger designed for NH3 refrigerant fluid as standard. Calories are discharged into the atmosphere. When climatic conditions begin to change, this heat exchanger uses water evaporation. Indeed, in complete safety and without needing any water treatment, it discharges calories in order to condense the gas at a lower temperature than the ambient air. The ONYX adiabatic condenser is the result of the combination of a dry condenser and an adiabatic pre-cooling section: this pre-cooling section lowers the ambient air temperature by evaporating water which passes through humidifying pads (Medias), specially designed for this purpose. ONYX adiabatic condenser is also available in an HYBRID version allowing the same equipment to discharge calories from the water cooling circuit and the chiller compressor.
