Adconair AdiabaticzeroGWP
LEARNED FROM NATURE FACTS, PLEASE!
When evaporating water cools the human skin, we call this an example of adiabatic cooling. 1st place in the 2nd category
As part of especially energy-efficient technology, this principle has become predominantly accepted
for the climate control of rooms: since additional energy is necessary only for air circulation and for Energy-Efficient Refrigerating and
humidification of the air. On hot and humid summer days, however, adiabatic cooling reaches its
limits, because outdoor can no longer be sufficiently cooled. Room Climate-Control Systems with
Indirect Cooling
Menerga, with its Adconair AdiabaticzeroGWP, has developed a system that uses an additional cooling
stage to sufficiently cool the air on such days – without the use of additional climate-control units.

By adding a second cooling stage to the proven adiabatic cooling system, peak loads are handled
during the few days in the year when this is necessary. The second cooling stage is switched on
i.e. 93 %
when required. It consists of a plate heat exchanger that is integrated in the air handling unit and
that can – in accordance with the principle of dewpoint cooling – cool the air even further, down to
the dewpoint of the outdoor air.
„The development of a system that produces cooled air without the
use of climate-changing refrigerants, is in our view a step in the right
direction. The future demands re-thinking and alternatives to classi-
cal refrigeration.“
