Engineered for the Petroleum, Natural Gas and Geothermal Industries, FANdek features: High Cooling Efficiency Low Pressure Drop Rapid Return on Investment Proven Technology Easy to Retrofit No additional space required Use most types of water Sound Attenuation ISO 9001:2000 Quality Certified With the capability to cool ambient air temperatures up to 40, FANdek increases the performance of air-cooled heat exchangers providing the following benefits: Increase production capacity Eliminate summer time bottlenecks Improve production energy efficiency

FANdek increases capacity of air cooled heat exchangers during hot summer months by lowering the ambient air temperature through the natural process of evaporative cooling.

The Problem
The temperature of the air used to dissipate heat from aircooled heat exchangers greatly impacts the performance of the underlying system. As the temperature of this air rises so do head pressures, resulting in higher energy input and lower capacity output.

How F ANdek W orks FANdek Works

The FANdek system consists of preassembled evaporative coolers attached immediately upstream of the heatexchanger. In operation, a controlled water flow is passed across a specially designed media. As air is drawn through the media, the water absorbs heat and evaporates. This in turn lowers the temperature of the inlet air before it enters the heat exchanger. Due to the fact that the evaporated moisture is in a vapor stage, it will not collect or leave deposits on the surface of the heat exchanger, thereby eliminating the need for chemical treatment.

The Solution
Munters FANdek is a proven, cost-effective evaporative cooling system specifically engineered to maximize the efficiency of air-cooled heat exchangers during periods of high ambient temperatures. By pre-cooling the air before it reaches the heat exchanger, the heat exchanger is able to reject more heat, thereby increasing overall system capacity and efficiency.
