Industrial Applications: Humidification Overview

Humidification with MicroCool high-pressure fog is applicable for every application, be it; open space, room humidification or in-duct. The flexibility of the controls and the system allows it to be used in every application for considerably less investment than “conventional” methods.

MicroCool fog nozzles each deliver 12.00 lb / 5.50 kg of water per hour in the form of billions of water droplets that quickly evaporate in the air. The standard design of a MicroCool humidification system is to evenly distribute the nozzles through the space to ensure that the control and delivery is even throughout the building.

As the MicroCool precision nozzles are a fraction of the price of air/water nozzles, extra nozzles can be used for distribution without incurring substantial cost. In general, MicroCool high-pressure fog systems are 60% less in capital cost and up to 90% less in operating costs (no compressor) and can significantly affect the return on investment without sacrificing quality.

Systems consist of a grid of nozzles through the building with a simple manifold connecting each one. Zones can be controlled through special sectioning controllers and valves to deliver the humidification only where it is needed.

Control systems are equally important in humidification systems as they need to respond quickly to the fog delivery and keep the humidification level as close to the setpoint as possible. MicroCool has invested time in researching the best controls possible to work with our systems and integrate with the pumps and RO units.

The pump units respond to changes in demand by increasing or decreasing speed, saving energy where necessary and reducing the water usage. We STRONGLY recommend the use of reverse osmosis water where possible as this eliminates dusting (calcium deposits) and significantly increases nozzle life. Matched RO units from MicroCool can easily be incorporated into the design and installation at advantageous prices.
