Energy-saving and environmentally friendly air conditioners—also known as evaporative coolers or direct-current blowers—are evaporative cooling and ventilation units that integrate cooling, ventilation, dust prevention, and odor removal into one compact system. In addition to providing fresh air and lowering temperatures in factory workshops, public spaces, and commercial and recreational venues, these eco-friendly air conditioners boast another crucial feature: energy efficiency and environmental friendliness! This is an entirely new type of environmentally friendly product that requires no compressor, no refrigerant, and no copper piping. The key components of the DC blower—the evaporative wet pad (a multi-layer corrugated fiber composite) and the 1.1-kW main motor—are responsible for consuming only one-eighth the electricity of conventional central air-conditioning systems, enabling substantial energy savings across various industries. These energy-saving and environmentally friendly air conditioners are suitable for both open and semi-open environments, capable of directly delivering natural air as well as cooled air after evaporation. Outdoor fresh air is filtered and cooled by the evaporative cooler within the energy-saving and environmentally friendly air conditioner before being continuously and abundantly delivered indoors. This process effectively removes stale, dusty, hot, and polluted air from the interior, while simultaneously ensuring ventilation, cooling, and increasing the humidity level of the indoor air. They are particularly well-suited for high-temperature environments and areas with dense populations. A water pump continuously draws clean water from a reservoir and evenly distributes it onto the wet pad via a water distributor.
When outdoor air is drawn in by a powerful fan and passed through an evaporative heat exchanger, water-soluble odors and particulate matter in the air are filtered and washed away into a collection tank by the flowing water. The high-speed airflow passing through the wet pad forces the water to evaporate rapidly, absorbing a significant amount of nearby thermal energy in the process. As a result, the air temperature drops dramatically, producing a strong, cool, and fresh airflow. This cool, clean air flow is then pressurized by the high-pressure impeller of a fan and delivered indoors via ductwork. Since cold air is denser than warm air, when the cold air meets the warm air, it quickly sinks, displacing the warm air from its original position. Meanwhile, the continuously incoming cold air keeps occupying the lower levels of the space, ensuring that this area maintains a comfortably inviting temperature, humidity, and supply of fresh air. Environmental air-conditioning units should be installed outdoors and must operate on a make-up-air basis; recirculation mode is strictly prohibited.
With the rapid proliferation of solar water heating projects, complementary products have also emerged. Among these, solar water heating system control equipment has become particularly popular. A solar water heating project control system consists of a controller, a photo-thermal conversion device, temperature and water-level signal acquisition devices, solenoid valves, and other components. As the “brain” of the solar water heating project—the control unit—the controller, being a derivative of the solar water heating industry, like many emerging industries, currently lacks established national standards in terms of regulation. Thus, there is a need for accumulated experience and continuous refinement of industry management. It is against this backdrop that solar water heating system control equipment has come into being. Since DC fan control devices are merely ancillary products in the solar energy sector—and given their relatively low value, as well as the time-consuming and costly nature of after-sales maintenance—few companies have undertaken systematic research into standards for solar control systems. Over the past decade or so of development in solar water heating project control systems, it has become evident that high repair rates have significantly increased companies’ after-sales service costs. The root cause of this issue lies in insufficient electrical clearances and creepage distances within the solar water heating project control systems. Drawing on the experience from the white家电 industry, we have studied national standards, analyzed inspection data, and refined the electrical safety design of solar water heating project control systems. This approach aims to enhance the overall performance of these products, reduce repair rates, and increase market share.
