wet-bulb temperature.
The end result is discharge temperatures near or
even slightly below the wet-bulb temperature.
More importantly, these lower discharge temperatures
translate into customer comfort at a fraction of the cost
of refrigerated air conditioning.
Applications
With its substantial increase in cooling capacity, the
indirect/direct 2-stage Industrial MasterCool can replace
mechanical refrigeration in many applications.
