Water cooler categories, categories for your convenience
Water cooler is one of the most popular systems for cooling different residential, office and industrial environments. Currently, the water cooler is the most common and most used cooling equipment used by Iranians. Of course, the water cooler is designed and produced in different types according to the needs and tastes, along with its various applications and designs.
When you buy a water cooler, you will probably come across a wide range of different designs and styles. If you go to the market to buy a water cooler with a simple and classic attitude, you will probably buy the same simple and familiar type. But can the same technology designed a few decades ago meet the different needs of today’s world? Do we all have the same expectations from the water cooler? The existence of these different needs along with innovative methods and technologies has caused water coolers to be produced in various categories and sent to the markets today. In order not to get confused in this diverse market when buying a water cooler, it is enough to know what type of cooler you intend to buy and for what purpose. Stay with us to learn more about water cooler categories.
Classification of water coolers
When we are going to categorize water coolers, we should actually study and classify this equipment from different perspectives. Things like: the way of operation, usage, mechanical structure, electromechanical structure, etc. are in the path of this study. From this point of view, water coolers can be classified into several general categories.
– Water coolers based on the type of cooler
– Water coolers based on capacity and dimensions
– Water coolers based on the fan used in it
– Water coolers based on the evaporative interface structure
Classification based on the type of cooler: When we talk about the type of water cooler, we are basically referring to the design of the cooler based on the need for which it was designed. When buying a water cooler, it will be very important to know the expected conditions. Because it is our expected conditions that lead us to the ideal type of water cooler. Types of water coolers are divided into fixed and mobile types in a general view. The fixed type, which is the same as the model installed outside, and is produced in a fixed form in ceiling, balcony and courtyard models. The mobile model is slightly smaller, without the need to install channels and water supply system, and they are often used in a mobile form in home or office environments and generally in stores.
Classification based on capacity and dimensions: The cooling power of a water cooler is one of the most important criteria in buying a water cooler. The cooling power in the water cooler is defined by a factor called the capacity of the water cooler, which is also defined based on a criterion called the ventilation power. The aeration power unit in the water cooler is referred to as CFM. The larger this CFM number is, we are necessarily dealing with a more powerful cooler with a higher blowing power. On the other hand, more power and higher ventilation makes the overall dimensions of the water cooler bigger. In another classification, water coolers under 10,000 CFM are called household coolers and those with a high capacity of 10,000 CFM are called industrial coolers.
Classification based on the type of evaporative medium: when we talk about the evaporative medium, it is actually the fans installed on the walls of the water cooler in which the water is cooled by evaporation during circulation and together with the air that is reduced The pressure caused by the propeller accumulates in the cooler environment, they will go to domestic or industrial environments. Pushals are a classic but familiar idea in the construction of these evaporative interfaces. In recent years, with the innovations, another type of evaporative medium has been invented, which is called cellulose evaporative medium.
So, consider this category when buying a water cooler:
– Poshali water cooler
– Cellulose water cooler
Although the cellulose type is more expensive, its higher cooling power, lower electricity consumption, along with better water management and the cleaner air it produces, can be an attractive option for buying a water cooler.
Classification based on the type of fan: In the type of fan used in the water cooler, two general types can be classified:
– Centrifugal water coolers
– Axial water coolers
The axial type is the same as the familiar types of our homes, which, if they can have a high volume of aeration, but they are not effective in producing high pressure wind. Centrifugal water cooler is also a special type of cooler that can produce a very high volume of aeration under high pressure by using a powerful fan with industrial dimensions. Although the centrifugal type is much more expensive, it can be much more favorable for industrial environments due to the production of high pressure aeration. It is not recommended to use a centrifugal water cooler for residential environments that generally have a limited volume in various spaces. Because the centrifugal type by producing high-pressure wind in high volume can easily affect all the spaces of the house with its powerful function. A condition that will definitely be an annoying condition for life.
The production of gentle wind with optimal pressure in axial coolers makes this type of cooler perfectly suitable for residential environments and as a result of their high popularity, they are very familiar to all of us. As far as when talking about coolers, we will unconsciously remember this type of water cooler.
