What is Smart Cooling?
Smart Cooling™ is an energy efficiency solution that utilizes adiabatic pre-cooling technology to reduce electricity consumption and increase cooling performance of HVAC systems.
The Smart Cooling™ pre-cooling system is fully customizable for all types of air-cooled chillers and dry-coolers, and does not require any additional space.
MAIN FACTS
MARKET TRENDS
Smart Cooling™ operates in the Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) industry. The HVAC market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 3.9 percent over the next five years, with an estimated projection of over 150 million HVAC units sold by 2024. The company's analysis indicates that air-cooled chillers and package units comprise between 30% to 40% of the total HVAC market in the GCC region.
In the developing economies, increasing urbanization has led to a surge in demand for commercial and retail cooling equipment. The GCC and Middle East regions have a high reliance on HVAC equipment due to the extreme weather conditions, making cooling solutions a necessity. Smart Cooling™ estimates that its products can reach 30% to 35% of the market in energy efficiency retrofit projects in these regions.
In developed economies, such as Europe and North America, there is a strong emphasis on energy efficiency and reducing CO2 emissions. Data centers and telecommunications companies are key target markets for Smart Cooling™ due to the high cooling power required for such facilities.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Smart Cooling™ system is a next-generation intelligent adiabatic chiller booster that uses the adiabatic cooling process, which involves spraying fine mist into the air to lower the temperature of the air entering the cooling unit. This process reduces the amount of energy needed to bring core temperatures to optimal levels.
The Smart Cooling™ system is compatible with all types of cooling units and from all manufacturers, including York, Carrier, Train, Daikin, Lennox, and McQuay. The system has been designed for easy installation, typically accomplished in just a few hours.
The key components of the Smart Cooling™ system include a nozzle panel, a reflective membrane, a UV chiller booster unit, a water treatment system, a control panel, and fittings. The nozzle panel and reflective membrane work to reduce the temperature of the air entering the cooling unit, while the UV chiller booster unit and water treatment system ensure the water used in the system is clean and free of harmful bacteria. The control panel regulates the operation of the Smart Cooling™ system, and the fittings connect and fasten the components together.
By reducing the temperature of the air entering the cooling unit, the Smart Cooling™ system is able to significantly lower the electrical consumption of the unit, leading to significant cost savings. The system has been tested and shown to improve cooling capacity and reduce electrical consumption in hot weather conditions.
The Smart Cooling™ system has been recognized and approved by leading manufacturers in the air-cooling industry, and it is capable of generating the expected results in terms of energy and cost savings. It also comes with a 2-year warranty.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS AND CASE STUDIES
Effectiveness
The Smart Cooling™ system is claimed to significantly reduce electrical consumption, resulting in considerable cost savings. The effectiveness of the system can be seen in data provided by chiller manufacturers, which shows the cooling capacity of a unit under different ambient air temperatures and how much power is used in kW/h. The data shows that the higher the air temperature entering the chiller system, the greater the required cooling capacity and electrical consumption 2 .
A case study with a York chiller showed that by using the Smart Cooling™ system, the temperature of incoming air was reduced to 25°C. Based on this, there was a saving in power consumption of around 21%.
Customer Reviews and Case Studies
With over 1000 adiabatic pre-cooling projects implemented worldwide, Smart Cooling™ boasts an impressive portfolio of global projects in four continents, reflecting its usage across diverse industries and geographical locations. The company's website asserts that many of the world's leading businesses have leveraged the Smart Cooling™ system to enhance energy efficiency and improve the performance of their cooling units. Notable implementations of this technology include the following projects:
PepsiCo
Smart Cooling™ was the natural choice to boost PepsiCo’s cooling equipment efficiency, ensuring more cooling power and lower electric energy consumption. After the installation of the adiabatic Smart Cooling™ system an increase of 18% in cooling capacity and a drop 24% in electricity consumption, on average, were recorded. The cooling equipment now operates under normal load, with shorter compressor operating cycles, even during extreme heat. Smart Cooling™ has ensured safer, cheaper and more sustainable cooling operations at PepsiCo.

Bosch
In 2016, Bosch’s service division equipped their cooling facilities with the intelligent adiabatic Smart Cooling™ system. Smart Cooling™ lowered the air temperature flowing into the chiller, boosting its cooling capacity and significantly reducing its electricity consumption. After the installation of the Smart Cooling™ system, the cooling equipment produced noticeably more cooling capacity: 25% on average. Electricity consumption dropped to around 19% on average.

Vodafone
The intelligent adiabatic Smart Cooling™ system was chosen by Vodafone to ensure its cooling facilities in Portugal deliver efficiency and lower electricity consumption. Installed on the site’s two Trane chillers, Smart Cooling™ ensures a boost on cooling capacity and prevents the cooling units from overloading during heat season.
After the installation of the intelligent adiabatic Smart Cooling™ system the incoming air temperature flowing into Vodafone’s condensers dropped by 12°C, providing a greatly improved heat exchange.
