Traditional refrigerant A/C |
Evaporative Cooling |
 |
As ambient temperature rises, energy consumption increases, efficiency decreases
|
 |
Temperature dependant upon ambient conditions |
 |
Can guarantee a fixed temperature
|
 |
As ambient temperature rises, energy consumption remains constant, efficiency increases |
 |
Can only operate well in a closed environment |
 |
Needs to operate with ventilation, open environment |
 |
Recirculates approximately 80 – 85% internal stale air |
 |
Operates with 100% fresh air, no recirculation |
 |
Dehydrates the atmosphere within the working environment |
 |
Slightly increases humidity level in the working environment |
 |
Does not filter any air, leaves dust, minerals and bacteria in the air-stream. |
 |
Some filtration of air, removes dust, minerals and bacteria from the air-stream |
