VENTS OKF series

Direct-expansion duct coolers are designed for cooling of supply air in rectangular ventilation systems and can be used either for supply or supply and exhaust units.

The DX coolers are available in OKF and OKF1 mofications. The OKF1 cooler has a simplified design. The cooler casing is made of galvanized sheet steel, the piping is made of copper tubes and the heat exhange surface is made of aluminium plates. The coolers are available in 3 rows modification and designed for operation with R123, R134а, R152а, R404а, R407с, R410а, R507, R12, R22, R32 cooling agents. It is equipped with a droplet separator and a drain pan for condensate collection and removal.

For OKF and OKF1 models by default the service side is located on the right side from the air stream direction.

The OKF cooler service side location can be changed by coil turning by 180°. The OKF1 modification does not have this option.

• Mounting is effected by means of flange connection. Direct-expansion cooling coils, can be installed horizontally only to enable the condensate draining.
• Installation shall be performed in such a way as to provide the uniform air srteam distribution along the entire cross section.
• The air filter shall be installed at the cooler inlet to ensure the cooler protection against dirt and dusting.
• The cooler can be installed at the fan inlet or outlet. If the cooler is located at the fan outlet the air duct between the cooler and the fan shall be at least 1-1.5 m long to ensure the air stream stabilization.
• To attain the maximum cooling capacity the cooler must be connected on counter-flow basis. All the nomographic charts in the catalogue are valid for such connection.
• The droplet separator is made of polypropylene profile and prevents condensate dripping from the cooling tubes by the cooling air flow. While selecting a cooler type consider that the most suitable speed of the air flow for the efficient droplet separator operation is up to 4 m/s.
• Condensate draining from the cooler shall be performed through the U-trap. The U-trap height depends on the total pressure in the fan. The trap height can be calculated using the figure and the table below.

Н - U-trap height

К - drain height

Р - total pressure in the fan

• To ensure the correct and safe cooler operation use the automation system providing the complex control and automatic regulation of the cooling capacity and air cooling temperature.
