The problem: A maxed-out air conditioner is not a happy one. Air conditioners are working harder these days. Many AC plants that were
adequate for their rated loads twenty years ago are now operating at maximum too much of the time. Increased
loads have been brought about by increased use of computers, increased density of personnel, and
for all we know, global warming. As such, air conditioners have longer run cycles, not just on
the hottest, muggiest summer days, but often from May into September.
In extreme heat, many conventional air conditioners will increase energy
consumption, be shut down or will fail due to excessive ambient loads on the condensing coil. Engineers have
attempted to solve this problem by spraying the coil with city water only to find out that this causes
calcification and deterioration of the coil. Calcification reduces the heat transfer efficiency
and increases operating costs.
The solution: Let NY Mist take a load off. The answer is a hi-tech, state-of-the-art precooling system from NY Mist.
The system, driven by 1,000 pounds per square inch of pressure, produces billions of water droplets as small as 10 microns (that’s very small, 10 millionths of a meter) in diameter.
These microscopic water droplets then 'flash evaporate' reducing the ambient temperature in the
immediate area.
This process, known as thermal dynamics, is effective because water requires
energy to evaporate (600 calories of heat is needed to evaporate I gram of water).
Experience has shown that the system is an energy saving device that can reduce
electrical consumption and not damage the condenser coils.
NY Mist systems offer simplicity and convenience in one piece of equipment. The
single-unit design, combines a high-pressure water mist pump, a state of the
art reverse osmosis
unit, a temperature controller and a final water sterilizing UV purifier, as well as all necessary
controls. These comprise indication gauges and electronically controlled sensors including timers, humidistats and thermostats allowing for effective pre-cooling without excessive moisture. Single
connections for power, water and drainage allow this equipment to be easily and quickly installed with a minimum
of effort and time.
To increase power output and efficiency in air-cooled condensers, NY Mist
high-pressure fog is applied at the condenser coil air inlet. By reducing this cooling air
temperature by up to 35°F (18°C), the efficiency can increase by as much as 40%.
This is accomplished because the cooler air intake reduces the compressor load,
the head pressure unit cycling and the resulting energy required to operate the unit. Added benefits
include increased equipment life and reduced operating costs. High head pressure “shut downs” are
virtually eliminated.
By using an integrated reverse osmosis and UV water treatment unit, deposits and
corrosion are eliminated at the coil face. Sensors and relays ensure that the NY Mist system
only operates when required, minimizing water usage and operation time.
In addition, the cooler air from the fog system will extend the time delays
between start up thereby prolong the operational life of the unit. And, by coupling the system to the condenser coil unit, the system will only
turn on when the A/C unit is under heavy ambient loads.
