Why your Facility need Spot Cooling & Heating Solutions? Industrial Challenges:

In the industrial world, the heat & humidity from process especially during summer months can become both a health consideration and a production concern - especially for production line employees or the welding booth operator who wear the Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) or distribution center workers who work around machinery that generate heat & humidity. Excess heat & humidity in the space results in high temperatures which may lead to: Chronic Absenteeism, Production Declines, Safety Problems, Illnesses, Heat Stroke, Heat Exhaustion, Heat Cramps, High Employee Absence, Low Moral, Heat Breaks etc. Impacts of these can result in: Production Losses, Missing Deadlines, Revenue Losses etc.

Spot Duct Cooler or Warmer Air Curtain

Human body attempts to maintain a constant internal temperature of 37°C at all times. In hot weather, the body produces sweat, which cools the body as it evaporates. As humidity or the moisture content in the air increases, sweat does not evaporate as readily. Sweat evaporation stops entirely when the relative humidity reaches about 90 percent. Under these circumstances, the body temperature rises & may cause illness. Occupational (Industrial) hygienists recommend using the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGTs) & Threshold Limit Values (TLVs) which translated to Humidex level which tells us how hot we feel. Under certain workplace conditions, the humidex may serve as an indicator of discomfort resulting from occupational exposures to heat. The Occupational Health Clinics for Ontario Workers Inc. (OHCOW), humidex above 38 leads to 15 minutes heat breaks. For many years, plant managers & owners have struggled with this problem of how to adequately provide cooling with large conventional systems for their workers to insure peak production and a safe working environment. ABS ESCO Inc. offers Turnkey Solution which will provide cool, comfortable, treated air to Spot Unit employees without having to air-conditioning your entire facility.

How does Spot Solution Work?

& maintain humidex rating around workers within safe zone.

Treat the Worker, Not the Space: In general, Spot solution uses insulated 2" inner diameter supply tubing that carries high velocity, reduce volumes of dehumidified conditioned air to be delivered directly to the factory worker. This conditioned air will create a comfort zone by making an air curtain of cooler or warmer air than stagnate air around worker as shown in Fig. 1. It's a source of effective relief without the expensive undertaking associated with conditioning the entire factory. Due to lower volume of air, our spot solution provides 30% more humidity removal with the superior & efficient design of the cooling coils, creating a comfortable environment, over traditional HVAC systems of same size. Our GEOSpot & REALSpot Solutions are described on page 7 & 8. Our GEOSpot solution is fit best with geothermal technology. Extremely Affordable and Flexible 9500 square feet molding plant where client was going to use 90 tons of conventional system, actually ended up using only 16 tons of Spot Solution, huge cost savings. Spot solution eliminates the need to air condition an entire factory space. It also eliminates the need for costly and space-wasting cool rooms. And, although Spot Solutions offers a permanent solution, it's highly adaptable and flexible. It can easily be reconfigured as workers move within their stations or as the production line is modified. Our geothermal field size is

How does GEOSpot System Work? We Design Build Geothermal field which is 65% smaller than conventional geothermal field, huge savings. Solution 1: Our GEOSpot solution is innovative & is a novel combination of traditional HVAC & Renewable technology (Geothermal). The solution combine hydronic chilled water space air cooling & warm water space heating in one package.

GEOSpot - The Solution which can provide Cooling Energy Efficiency Ratio EER of 25 & Heating Coefficient of Performance COP of 4.5

The Ground - A geothermal system uses the energy of the sun, stored in the earth, ready to provide comfort all year round. Even in the winter, when a blanket of snow covers the ground, the earth's temperature remains approximately 10°C (50°F) at only six feet below the surface. This means that a steady supply of heat is available to provide comfort, even in the depths of the coldest winter. A series of pipes buried in the ground in a vertical fashion. A thermal fluid is circulated through the pipes to make them highly efficient conductors of heat. In the winter, the thermal fluid in the pipes absorbs the heat from the ground and, now warmed up, the fluid is pumped back through the geothermal unit in the mechanical room to deliver heat. In the summer, the heat transfer process takes place in reverse. The fluid in the pipes leaves the plant in a warm state, but after circulating underground, is cooled as the pipes exchange heat with the much cooler earth. Thermal Fluid in pipes.

Spot Cooling & Heating With Geothermal

The Mechanical Room - Central water to water heat pumps, thermal fluid, circulating pumps, piping, insulation, & controls located in a relatively smaller mechanical room. Depending on the seasons, the entire system either produces chilled or warm thermal fluid which will deliver to indoor spot units & new coils of existing fresh air units . Indoor Spot System - The indoor spot system is an innovative & unique system which operates differently from conventional HVAC system. This System uses an approach whereby the new breed of air handlers (Low Air Volume) connected to insulated piping system which can deliver maximum cooling and heating via insulated small high velocity duct system including 2" branch supply tubing that carries high velocity, reduce volumes of conditioned air to be delivered directly to the factory worker. The system as a whole is much quieter than a typical furnace or air handler and duct system that you find in a regular industrial space. Due to lower volume of air, our spot solution provides 30% more humidity removal with the superior & efficient design of the cooling coils, creating a comfortable environment, over traditional HVAC systems of same size. Recognizing this, U.S. Department of Energy has created a separate test standards & efficiency rating of this product. The existing ventilation system, if any, may needed to be upgraded by adding cooling coils sections to suit 50% of the total fresh air in selective units which will function as heating coils in winter to temper fresh air and save natural gas.

Our Solutions Benefits

Government Supports Geothermal Technology - Both the US and Canadian governments offer generous incentives to businesses that upgrade to: Geothermal Heating and Cooling systems in new builds and retrofits. System Longevity - Geothermal systems have a longer life cycle:

25 years for the mechanical equipment. 50+ years for the ground loop. Improved Comfort & Indoor Air Quality - Our system targets the worker, not the workplace, which allows the system to decrease humidity levels more by 30% and maintain temperature levels below Humidex 38 level to provide comfort to the workers. Also, Geothermal systems provide heating and cooling more evenly than conventional equipment resulting in a significant increase in comfort. Flexible - Customized for each facility's specific needs - Below numbers are based on 90,000 square feet molding plant where client was going to use 90 tons of conventional system, and ended up using 16 tons of Spot Solution, huge cost savings. Easy to install, economical to purchase - Our system is size to provide comfort to the worker rather than whole plant so the system size is much smaller as compare to large conventional system which means lower Capital, operating & maintenance cost.

Lower maintenance Cost - Geothermal systems have a longer life cycle compared to 15 to 20 year life expectancy for traditional HVAC equipment. With zero combustion and less moving parts, our GeoSpot system require less maintenance and cost when compare to RealSpot and Conventional system.

Lower Operating Cost - Because 100% of geothermal energy is free, and GeoSpot system runs at maximum efficiency. Our system EER is around 25 compared to EER values of around 15 for a conventional GSHP geothermal installation, the GeoSpot is extremely efficient and offer lower operating cost when compare to RealSpot and Conventional System.

Increased Safety - GeoSpot and RealSpot equipment are installed indoors except air to water heat pump. This improves longevity of equipment and provides a safe environment for maintenance staff. Workers are not exposed to the dangers of servicing equipment on rooftops. Environmentally Friendly - Reduce overall Green House Gas Emissions. In fact GeoSpot systems produce no GHG emissions on site. Due to the high efficiency and reduced use of electricity, GeoSpot systems also produce less GHG emissions from offsite sources. Also, GeoSpot and Real Spot use R410A refrigerants, which have an ozone depletion potential of zero which helps to preserve the ozone layer, R410A boosts the operational efficiency of the air-conditioning system.

Corporate Marketing - Generate message of your commitment to environmental responsibility through the use of sustainable and renewable energy. ABS Group experts can assist you with delivering that message with the local community. Esthetics/Architectural Advantage - No large outdoor condensing units or cooling towers on roof or ground provide architectural freedom and less structural concerns from the weights of roof-top equipment.
