Advanced Cooling Technologies, Inc. is awarded Large Scale International Medical Center Project for AAHX Energy Recovery with Samsung
LANCASTER, Pa., May 15, 2015 – Advanced Cooling Technologies, Inc. (ACT), Lancaster, PA., has been selected to supply twenty, custom air-to-air heat pipe heat exchanger energy recovery systems (AAHXs) for an international medical center project. Ten of the AAHXs are large side-by-side units and nine of the AAHXs are unique, space-saving split and bent design. The remaining AAHX is an innovative, center split, passive loop thermosyphon at over 27 feet long by 12 feet high and will be assembled and charged on-site by an ACT installation team.
During the winter months ACT’s energy recovery AAHX products capture waste heat from the exhaust air streams to pre-heat incoming make-up air. An important biological health safety requirement with hospitals is that the energy is transferred without any cross contamination between the exhaust air and the make-up air. The energy recovery AAHX systems are distributed from the basement to the roof top of the twenty story tall facility. The follow-on stage of the project will look at ACT’s Wrap-Around Heat Pipe Heat Exchangers (WAHXs) for enhanced dehumidification and energy savings during the summer air conditioning season.
ACT was selected over competing technologies for their comprehensive thermal management experience. ACT’s president, Jon Zuo comments, “Our ability to be flexible in design and to customize the energy recovery units to fit the complicated installation environment made all the difference”. The project will be completed in July, 2015 with the final task requiring a group of ACT technicians completing the assembly and charging of the split, passive loop thermosyphon on-site. The total installed system has a calculated payback period of less than 48 months.
