Vortec has updated their online heat load calculator, allowing users to determine cooling requirements for their specific enclosure. The new tool, available at https://www.vortec.com/heatload/calculator allows users to input enclosure dimensions, compressed air inlet temperature and pressure, current cabinet temperatures, worst case ambient…

ProtEX Vortex A/C Enclosure Cooler

ITW Vortec has released an update to its line of enclosure coolers. The ProtEX Vortex A/C enclosure cooler, released in April 2017, has been granted certification for Class I, Division 1, Groups A, B, C and D; Class II, Division 1, Groups F and G; and Class III, after extensive review by Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL).

Electric Vortex AC Quickly Cools Cabinets and Enclosures

Increased ambient temperatures are tough on plant employees and equipment alike, especially sensitive electronics and controls housed within cabinets and enclosures. Vortec introduces Electric Vortex AC models, which are pre-wired, easy-to-install solutions that are operational in minutes to quickly cool sensitive electronics and controls.

Spray Nozzles for Evaporative Cooling

Vortec introduces spray nozzles for ultrafine droplet-sized sprays suitable for evaporative cooling. Spray nozzles atomize the liquid stream by high-velocity compressed air to create a range of 20-200 micron-size spray droplets, resulting in greater surface coverage than conventional nozzles.

Dual-Action Personal Air Conditioners

Working in extreme environments can take a toll on workers, but dual-action Personal Air Conditioners (PACs) from Vortec keep workers comfortable and productive in either hot or cold working conditions. PACs minimize heat stress and fatigue in elevated temperatures, or with simple adjustment, they raise vest and body temperatures to ward off the…

Dual Force Vac Drum Pump

The Dual Force Vac Drum Pump from Vortec is a convenient and versatile solution for liquid material handling and spill clean-up. Using Vortec technology, this two-way, air-powered drum pump can fill or discharge a 55-gallon drum in just 2 minutes with no moving parts and no shock hazard.

Enclosure Coolers

Increased temperatures which signal the start of spring are welcomed by workers—but can wreak havoc with sensitive electronics. As ambient temperatures rise, so does the temperature inside of electrical enclosures, causing problems for sensitive components like sensors, solenoids, relays and PLCs . Vortec enclosure coolers keep electrical and…

Cold Air Guns

Vortec cold air guns use vortex tube technology and filtered compressed air to produce sub-freezing air as low as -30 deg F (-34 deg C) for numerous industrial spot cooling applications. With no moving parts to wear out, cold air guns require no electricity at the target, just a compressed air source.

Dual Action Personal Air Conditioner

Vortec's new Dual Action Personal Air Conditioner (PAC) is meant for employees working in extreme temperatures, and is said to result in increased productivity, according to a news release from ITW Vortec.
