Ecodry MDK line offers efficient cooling

Dec. 21, 2022
Frigel says the MDK series consumes up to 15 percent less energy, and provides up to a 95 percent savings in water consumption compared to traditional cooling towers.

Ecodry MDK Frigel’s Ecodry MDK range expands its adiabatic cooling system family, borrowing some of the technological advances introduced in the company’s larger LDK range, such as a high-efficiency humidification system, electronically commutated fans and a compact, modular design. Units are available with single- and dual-fan row designs, with one to 10 fans per row, and all fans are equipped with safety switches. These heavy-duty units are built from 304L stainless steel. 

What’s new? The Ecodry MDK series, which debuted at the K Show.  

Benefits Efficient, resource-conserving cooling. Frigel said the MDK series consumes up to 15 percent less energy, and provides up to a 95 percent savings in water consumption compared to traditional cooling towers. Its modular design allows for easy on-site assembly and capacity expansion, simplifying the addition of more units to run in parallel. A single unit offers cooling capacity of 1.4 megawatts as an adiabatic cooler, and up to 700 kilowatts as a dry cooler. The units provide easy access, simplifying maintenance procedures. The MDK series’ patented CoolPad adiabatic chamber provides exceptional cooling and humidification rates, and is Greenguard Gold-certified.
