Product catalog summary
Global Company Overview
AAF is a major global company with representation in 66 countries, specializing in air filtration and inlet cooling products. The Power & Industrial Division offers a wide range of products manufactured across three continents, providing both original equipment and retrofit solutions.

Inlet Cooling
Inlet cooling enhances power and thermal efficiency for gas turbines by lowering the ambient air temperature. This is crucial as turbine power output decreases with rising temperatures. AAF offers various cooling solutions, including evaporative and refrigeration methods.

Evaporative Cooling
Evaporative cooling increases air density, improving engine efficiency and reducing nitrogen oxide emissions. The AMER-Kool III Evaporative Cooler is designed for maximum performance with minimal pressure loss, using fluted media for effective air-to-water contact.

Fogging Systems
Fogging systems spray atomized water into the airstream, achieving adiabatic cooling with minimal pressure drop. These systems are ideal for retrofitting, offering low installation downtime and fast payback.

Mechanical Chillers
Mechanical chillers use refrigerant vapor compression to cool inlet air, maintaining design temperatures regardless of ambient conditions. AAF, in partnership with McQuay, provides a range of refrigeration systems, including ammonia and HFC-134a chillers.

Key Benefits
  • Significant power and efficiency improvements
  • Low capital cost and fast payback
  • Minimal impact on existing structures
  • Reliable performance in varying ambient conditions

AmerKool III Evaporative Cooler-3

AMER-Kool III EVAPORATIVE COOLER When evaporative cooling is applied to combustion air intakes, it serves to lower the heat and enhance engine efficiency by increasing the air density. Increased air density has the effect of raising specific mass flow rate through the engine, improving output and fuel efficiency. A further effect is the reduction of emissions of oxides of nitrogen. Evaporative coolers are normally mounted downstream of the filter system, where the media is protected from the ambient contaminant load resulting in long life and stable pressure loss. The AMER-Kool III unit has been...
