What is the cooling capacity of the SKV?

The SKV cools incoming air to wet-bulb temperature using adiabatic evaporation principle. Up to 12°C of cooling can be achieved in dry and hot conditions. Efficiency varies depending on ambient humidity.

What does the silver ion dosing system do?

Preventing microbiological growth in evaporative systems is critical. Silver ion (Ag+) dosing system prevents bacterial and algae growth in the water reservoir and minimizes Legionella risk. No need for chemical biocides.

Does the SKV require a custom design?

Yes, the SKV is custom-sized and designed for each project. The optimum configuration is determined based on airflow, pressure drop requirements, and space conditions. Our project team works with you during the design process.

SKV Benefits

Evaporative Humidifier

Neptronic's SKV Evaporative Humidifier is a modular system custom-configured using Humidisoft software. Humidity is provided by evaporating water through air passage over wet media, while simultaneously achieving up to 12°C of free cooling.

The SKV integrates easily into existing ventilation systems with its in-duct modular design. It offers precise humidity control with up to 5 staging valves. Extremely efficient with < 1 kW energy consumption.

How Silver Ions Work

Silver ions breaking through the cell wall

Silver ions disrupting respiration of the microbe

Silver ions attaching to the DNA of the microbe to stop cell replication

Evaporation Factors

The SKV offers 4 different evaporation factors depending on application requirements. Higher evaporation factor provides greater humidity and cooling capacity.
