Evaporative Cooling System

Hydor Evaporative Cooling systems are suitable for agricultural, horticultural and a variety of commercial applications.

Originally developed for poultry and cattle, evaporative cooling is a simple but highly effective method of reducing temperature and increasing humidity. The surrounding air is cooled as micron-sized water droplets are emitted from a series of nozzles under high pressure. These are evaporated into the warm environment and air temperature is reduced without causing condensation or damage to any fixtures or fittings.

When encapsulated in an enclosed area such as animal housing, the water droplets are also able to remove small particles from the air, making evaporative cooling systems a very effective method of controlling dust, odour and pollution levels.

Evaporative cooling systems differ from misting systems. Misting or fogging will wet the animal to cool it, which is not suitable for some applications such as poultry. Evaporative cooling systems reduce air temperatures by the process of evaporation. The very fine water droplets change from a liquid to a vapour state reducing the surrounding air temperature in the process.

Further applications where evaporative cooling systems can be used successfully include equine stables and riding arenas, pig housing, store areas, wood, metal and textile manufacturing facilities.
