Guide to Air Washer Unit

In today’s industrial and commercial environments, maintaining optimal air quality and temperature is crucial for productivity, comfort, and energy efficiency. Air Washer Units are the ideal solution for effective air cooling and humidification, especially in regions with hot and dry climates. At Aarco, we specialize in designing and manufacturing high-performance Air Washer Units tailored to meet your specific requirements.

What is an Air Washer Unit?

An Air Washer Unit is an evaporative cooling system that conditions the air by reducing its temperature and increasing humidity through the process of evaporative cooling. These units are widely used in industries, commercial spaces, and even residential applications for cost-effective and eco-friendly cooling.

Key Components of Air Washer Units:

  • Inlet Louvers: Directs and regulates the airflow into the unit.
  • Filter Section: Ensures clean and dust-free air enters the system.
  • Cellulose Media: Specially designed angle flute pads that maximize evaporative cooling efficiency.
  • Water Distribution System: Uniformly distributes water over the cellulose media.
  • Pump: Recirculates water from the sump to the distribution system.
  • Centrifugal Fan: Delivers consistent and efficient airflow.
  • Single or Double Skin Construction: For enhanced durability and thermal insulation.

How Do Air Washer Units Work?

Air Washer Units utilize the principle of evaporative cooling, where warm air passes through water-saturated cellulose pads. As the water evaporates, it absorbs heat from the air, resulting in a temperature drop of 8-10°C. The cooled and humidified air is then distributed into the space through the centrifugal fan.

Special Features of Air Washer Units:

  • Angle Flute Arrangement: Increases the surface area for maximum cooling efficiency.
  • Decay-Resistant Media: The humidification media is impregnated with chemicals that resist decay, ensuring long-lasting performance.
  • Mist Eliminators: Prevents water droplets from entering the airstream, maintaining optimal humidity levels.

Capacity Range and Customization

At Aarco Engineering Projects Pvt. Ltd., we understand that every space has unique cooling requirements. Therefore, our Air Washer Units are available in a wide capacity range from 5000 CMH to 250,000 CMH (Cubic Meters per Hour).

Customization Options Include:

  • Direct Indirect 2-Stage Evaporative Cooling Units: Provides enhanced cooling efficiency by combining direct evaporative cooling with an indirect stage, reducing air temperature without increasing humidity.
  • Cellulose Matrix Type: Efficient cooling media with high saturation efficiency.
  • Single Spray and Double Spray Unitary Type: Offers flexibility in cooling and humidification requirements.

Types of Air Washer Units 

1. Direct Indirect 2-Stage Evaporative Cooling Units

These units utilize a two-stage cooling process to maximize efficiency. In the first stage, the air is pre-cooled indirectly without adding moisture, followed by direct evaporative cooling in the second stage. This approach delivers cooler air while maintaining a comfortable humidity level.

Benefits:

  • Up to 40-50% energy savings compared to conventional air conditioning.
  • Enhanced cooling efficiency with reduced humidity levels.
  • Ideal for large commercial and industrial applications.
 

2. Cellulose Matrix Type Air Washer Units

Equipped with high-efficiency cellulose pads with a unique angle flute design, these units maximize the contact area between air and water, ensuring effective cooling and humidification.

Key Features:

  • High Saturation Efficiency of up to 90%.
  • Decay-resistant media for long-term durability.
  • Uniform cooling with consistent airflow.
 

3. Single Spray and Double Spray Unitary Type

These units offer flexible cooling and humidification options by varying the number of spray stages.

  • Single Spray Type: Ideal for moderate cooling and humidification requirements.
  • Double Spray Type: Offers enhanced cooling capacity for high heat load areas.

Advantages:

  • Precise humidity control with adjustable spray nozzles.
  • Consistent cooling even in large spaces.
  • Low maintenance with easy access to spray nozzles and water distribution systems.

Applications of Air Washer Units

  • Industrial Manufacturing Plants: Effective cooling and humidification for worker comfort and process efficiency.
  • Commercial Spaces: Shopping malls, offices, and public buildings for cost-effective cooling.
  • Agricultural Facilities: Maintaining optimal humidity levels for livestock and greenhouse applications.
  • Residential Spaces: Energy-efficient and eco-friendly cooling solutions for homes.

Aarco Engineering Projects Pvt. Ltd. is a leading manufacturer of advanced Air Washer Units, offering a wide range of customizable options to meet your cooling and humidification needs. Whether you need a Direct Indirect 2-Stage Unit for enhanced cooling efficiency or a Cellulose Matrix Type for high saturation efficiency, we have the right solution for you.
