Discover MITA's air cooling systems (Dry Coolers), the ideal solution for plants that require temperatures close to the outside air in contexts of water scarcity. We offer a series of "table-shape" air coolers for small/medium plants, and "V-shape" coolers for medium or large plants in United Kingdom, European Union and Americas. Contact us for your HVAC, data center, or industrial application.
1. Overcoming Your Industrial & HVAC/R Cooling Challenges
Are you a Production Manager, in Italy or worldwide, aiming for uninterrupted operations? Or a Technical Consultant designing HVAC or industrial process cooling systems? You likely face some challenges.
Rising resource costs: inefficient cooling systems inflate operational expenses.
Water scarcity or complexity in treating it: concerns about availability and treatment costs in some installation areas make wet cooling less feasible.
Reliability and maintenance: plant downtimes are costly, so you need robust, low-maintenance, and long-lasting solutions.
Stringent environmental regulations: compliance with water use and discharge limits in certain areas is essential.
MITA Cooling Technologies understands these challenges deeply. Our range of dry coolers is designed to offer effective and low-energy cooling solutions. We don’t just sell cooling units: we partner with you to select and implement the best system design for your business.
Dry coolers, also known as air coolers or dry cooling systems, are an effective solution for heat dissipation. Their main feature is the exclusive use of ambient air as the cooling medium. The closed-circuit design protects process fluids from external contamination, safeguarding the system’s integrity.
The operation is based on the principle of convection cooling. Outside air, drawn in and pushed by one or more fans, passes through finned coils, which contain the tubes where the fluid to be cooled flows. The tubes themselves are embedded in thin metal plates (the fins) that amplify the heat exchange with the air. The air absorbs the heat from the fluid and is expelled into the environment. It is crucial to know that the outlet temperature of the fluid can never be lower than the dry-bulb temperature of the outside air, making these systems ideal for applications requiring medium-to-high fluid temperatures.
Typical structures include a closed circuit with finned coils, fans driven by high-efficiency electric motors, and a robust frame, often made of galvanized steel, to protect the internal components. There are different configurations to suit plant requirements:
“table-shape” dry coolers, with a horizontal coil and vertical fans, are compact and suitable for small and medium-sized plants.
For greater capacity, “V-shape” dry coolers feature two inclined coils that maximize the heat exchange surface and airflow, offering superior performance.
Some systems can integrate adiabatic pre-cooling devices, improving efficiency in hot conditions and allowing outlet temperatures below the dry-bulb temperature.
As synonyms for “dry cooler”, you might encounter other terms…
air cooler or industrial air cooler,
air-cooled dry cooler,
air cooler or dry air cooler,
finned-coil cooler,
air cooling system or air cooling technology.
3. MITA Dry Coolers: robust and efficient
MITA dry coolers represent a robust and simple cooling solution. By exclusively using ambient air for heat exchange, the circuit is closed and protects process fluids from contamination, preserving the integrity and extending the useful life of the system.
MITA offers two main series to meet different plant needs.
The MDC-F series, characterized by the “flat-bed” coil configuration, is an optimal solution for small and medium-sized plants, offering a compact design and extreme simplicity of use.
For applications requiring greater capacity, the MDC-V series features a “V-shape” coil design that maximizes the heat exchange surface and increases airflow, making it ideal for medium and large-sized plants.
Both types are designed to last, with robust frames made of 1.5 mm press-bent galvanized sheet metal and the use of high-quality materials. Efficiency is a cornerstone: electronically controlled (EC) fans dynamically adjust their speed (from 10 to 100%) based on the thermal load, ensuring significant energy savings and a stable outlet fluid temperature.
All models ensure ease of use and maintenance. A special provision also allows for remote control, monitoring, and data collection. Their scalability allows for future modular expansion.
4. MITA Dry Cooler specifications: designed for high performance and reliability
Our dry coolers are developed with cutting-edge technologies to meet the demands of the Italian and European markets.
Key features include:
High-efficiency heat exchange coils: optimized geometry of fins and tubes for maximum heat transfer with minimal air-side pressure drop.
Advanced fan technology: options with EC motors for energy savings, reduced noise levels, and precise speed control based on load.
Robust construction: press-bent galvanized sheet metal frame to adequately support the weight of the heat exchange coils.
Modular design: flexibility in configuration and scalability to adapt to required capacities and plant layout.
Wide range of capacities: from compact dry coolers for low loads to industrial units for large plants.
Customized solutions: tailor-made selection based on the process fluid, thermal differential, and site environmental conditions.
Adiabatic pre-cooling systems (optional): to improve performance during peak summer temperatures, increasing cooling capacity with very low water usage compared to traditional wet systems. Discover our adiabatic dry coolers.
An industrial equipment integrator with more than 40 years of experience needed to cool resin sand molds for a foundry in New Zealand. MITA Cooling Technologies provided the solution: a combined dry cooler and chiller system ensured high performance even in a high temperature environment. The result of this integration? Reliable, energy-optimized cooling.
MITA Cooling Technologies supplied a Dry Cooler system to a large French group for an oil & gas cooling project in Australia. The system was used to cool synthetic process oil.
Canceling water use, reducing installation space compared to other solutions, support throughout the project-these are the goals of a construction company that chose a dry cooler from MITA Cooling Technologies to cool its process fluids.
