SKVF Benefits

Evaporative Cooler

Neptronic's SKVF Evaporative Cooler is engineered and built to offer maximum comfort in large scale applications by providing adequate humidification and cooling. In hot applications, this cooling can greatly contribute to process efficiency by enhancing worker productivity, contributing to product quality and reducing energy consumption.

The SKVF uses energy-efficient and modulating fans to circulate outdoor fresh air or indoor recirculated air. It warms dry air when it passes through the wet media to make the water evaporate, which then raises the humidity level. Moreover, our unit can cool the air due to the energy transfer generated by the water evaporation.

How Silver Ions Work

Silver ion technology
1
Silver ions breaking through the cell wall
2
Silver ions disrupting respiration of the microbe
3
Silver ions attaching to the DNA of the microbe to stop cell replication
Easy Maintenance

Easy Maintenance

The SKVF has been designed to facilitate access to the evaporative module components for easier maintenance. Remove the media cassette in two easy steps:

Step 1
1
Use the access key to unlock the media cassette panel
Step 2
2
Remove the media cassette from the SKVF
