Radiant Cooling (Chilled Ceiling)

This is a rapidly growing form of cooling. It provides draft-free comfort with uniform temperature distribution. This system is used widely in Europe and in the Orient. Proving its value in some of the world's most humid climates, such as Singapore, there is little doubt that its popularity will grow in the U.S.

To control humidity and prevent condensation from forming on the chilled surfaces, a dehumidification system must be employed with controls to orchestrate the interaction between the systems.

MSP dehumidifying technology fits very neatly in this application. The dehumidification system can be designed to treat the outdoor air, room air or both. The dehumidification system must remove enough moisture to maintain room humidity and to keep the dew point below the surface temperature of the chilled surfaces. These dehumidification systems typically provide very low airflow and are inexpensive to own and operate.

Data Centers (Computer Rooms)

Electric heaters, in data center cooling units, are used to control humidity during light load conditions and when outdoor air is high in humidity. These heaters result in substantial increases in the size of emergency generators and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS).

Excess humidity in data centers generally comes from two sources--people and ventilation (outdoor) air. Delivering outdoor air, with humidity below the indoor humidity, will ensure control of indoor humidity without the need for reheating.

MSP Dehumidifying Technology is well suited for this application. The MSP dehumidifying coil is used to treat the outdoor air stream and remove moisture before it enters the data center, thereby eliminating the need for reheat.

Ice Skating Rinks

Ice skating rinks present a challenge for a dehumidification system. Humidity must be kept low to prevent condensation on the ice surface and to prevent fog from forming in the indoor climate.

MSP Dehumidifying Technology is well suited for this application. The energy in Ice shavings is harnessed by using near-freezing water for dehumidification. The net results are superior dehumidification with little energy cost and the elimination of ice mounds, melting in the parking lot. The MSP dehumidifying coil, using near-freezing water, is used to treat the outdoor air stream and remove moisture before it enters the rink, thereby eliminating fogging and condensation.
