UltraCOIL and UltraDUCT

Due to humidity and hospitable environment microorganisms grows rapidly on cooling coils. These microorganisms produce sticky substances due to which a thick layer of dust sticks to the coil which results into poor heat transfer between coil and air. Poor heat transfer between coil and air leads to greater energy consumption.

Coil Inefficiency Due to Bio-Film

• Bio-film has a heat transfer resistance four times that of scale
• The reduction or elimination of Bio-film results in energy savings due to improved heat transfer

How Does UltraCOIL Save Energy?

Installing a proper UVGI system in front of the coil kills such microorganisms, and hence it does not allow a biofilm to grow. A clean coil decreases the pressure drop across coil which results into the following:

• Increase in the thermal efficiency (sensible loads) of the cooling coil
• Decreasing the load on the chiller hence energy saving on chiller by 10-15%
• Reduction in microbial counts>15 %

Other benefits:

• Increasing the life of coil by avoiding manual cleaning
• Earning IGBC point
• Typical payback period of < 15 months

Airborne transmission of diseases through HVAC systems is actually much more prevalent than previously thought. Hospital acquired infections are costing healthcare providers Lakhs of Rupees per annum and whilst robust cleaning regimes have been adopted, the spread of Tuberculosis, Meningitis, MRSA, Clostridium difficile, Chickenpox, and Influenza (H1N1 and avian), including Aspergillus and Pseudomonas continue to grow. These infections affect between 10 and 20% of patients and in some cases are fatal.

Airborne contamination comes from a variety of sources and circulates through the HVAC system.
