  • Page 3: General Description

    GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Oceanaire AQUACOOLER is a portable water-cooled air condi- tioner designed for permanent or temporary spot cooling applica- tions. The entire air conditioning unit has been built in an attractive sheet metal cabinet, equipped with heavy-duty casters for mobility.
  • Page 5: Standard Features

    STANDARD FEATURES CABINET The OWC-Series cabinet is constructed of 18 gauge steel with a gray polyester powder coated finish that will compliment any decor. The entire cabinet is insulated with a sound- absorbing insulation for cool, quiet comfort. All units come equipped with swivel casters for portability and convenient set-up.
  • Page 6: Applications / Operation

    APPLICATIONS SPOT COOLER The AQUACOOLER can be used in an open environment to cool specific objects or "spots". Spot Cooling is a convenient and economical way to provide air conditioning where cooling the entire space is impractical. Cool air is discharged from the unit and is directed where it is needed. Nozzle kits can be used to improve direction of the cooling airflow.

  • Page 11 ACCESSORIES DISCHARGE AIR NOZZLE KIT ASSEMBLY (NK, 2NK) The optional discharge nozzle kits are used to direct the conditioned air to a specific tar- get area. By concentrating the airflow, the nozzles increase the air velocity towards production lines to cool personnel or equipment. In server rooms, the nozzles can be used to induce airflow through the rack to remove the hot air from the area of the equip- ment.
  • Page 12 ACCESSORIES EVAPORATOR RETURN AIR PLENUM, DEP Evaporator return air plenums are available for installations where it is required to duct air to the inlet of the evaporator. The evaporator return air plenums allow the user to connect round duct (flexible or rigid) to the return air intake to reduce air noise and increase the number of options for solving difficult cooling problems.
  • Page 13 ACCESSORIES Discharge Duct Adapter, DDA Discharge duct adapters are available for applications where ducted evaporator discharge is required. The adapters can be easily installed on the unit without fasteners, and be installed for either vertical or horizontal ducting. The standard discharge grille is removed and the DDA is attached in the grill opening.
