HIGH ABSORBENCY AND MECHANICAL RESISTANCE

The cooling pad can create the environmental conditions for effective management of the premises, especially in regions with a warm, dry climate. Gigola & Riccardi provides pads of high absorbency made with special “Kraft paper” based on cellulose. The resins used for the manufacture of these technological devices are innovative products recently adopted to guarantee better wear resistance, greater protection against UV rays and a safer environment. Many tests have been carried out to prove the unique qualities of these devices for protection of the environment against algae and bacteria. They are also easy to replace and their operating costs are minimal. The product has a low environmental impact and, being recyclable, represents a green solution.

COOLING WITH PADS

The system is based on the concept of evaporation whereby water lowers the temperature as it evaporates. These pads are generally installed on the wall opposite the extractors and are wetted by water supplied from a tank. When the extractor is in operation, the air enters the cooling pad to cool and humidify the environment, whether in a greenhouse or in a farm or industrial building. The water delivered by the sleeve evaporates, in part, when the air passes through the pad. Another part returns to the pumps through a set of ducts. The folds of the cellulose paper are crucial in ensuring adequate cooling and the waves vary with each sheet to allow for excellent evaporation and a lower pressure drop. It is also worth remembering that these pads require minimal management, far less so than nebulisers with nozzles.

TYPES OF PADS

The Cooling & Darkening evaporative pads are 16% more efficient than conventional products, thanks to the new shape of the waves that make them unique. This type of cooling pad also permits total darkening. The structure of the system guarantees an important benefit: the single device incorporates two functions (cooling and darkening) normally associated with two separate models. A Cooling & Darkening pad serving a dual purpose, therefore, represents a considerably cheaper alternative to the purchase of two different pads (for cooling and darkening). The size, too, never poses a problem: it is possible to order pads of any size to meet any requirement. The standard sizes are 600 mm wide and 150 mm thick, while the height varies from 1000 to 2000 mm. The cooling pads (70/90) are also available in heights of 1000, 1500, 1800 and 2000 mm. A special cover treatment with a specific black glue that increases its strength can be applied on request. In this way, it is easy to perform maintenance on the Cooling pad: it is possible, in fact, to clean using a brush without causing damage to the surface.

No less important are the ducts made of extruded aluminium alloy between 100 to 200 mm in thickness. Convenient caps and special joints are sealed with silicone without the need for screws or other fasteners.

High Performance Cooling & Darkening Pad

The patented design of this new pad is the result of an innovative construction technology and provides with exclusive features:

  •  Increased cooling efficiency (16% higher than traditional cooling
    pads) with a lower pressure drop.
  • Total darkening to sunlight.

The Cooling & Darkening Pad represents a very profitable investment since it is cheaper than a system comprising a Cooling Pad and a Light Trap separated.

Cooling & Darkening Pads

Patented Cooling Efficency

Our “Cooling & Darkening” pad is characterized by a unique and patented “Double Elbow” shape of the channels, conceived in order to achieve higher cooling and humidification properties.

This particular shape provides the panel with both an increased cooling efficiency and a darkening property, since it stops the light passage.

  1. HIGH MECHANICAL RESISTANCE
  2. IDEAL FOR UNCLEAN ENVIRONMENTS
  3. UV – RAYS PROTECTION
  4. HIGH COOLING EFFICIENCY
  5. ALGAE, FUNGI AND BACTERIA PROTECTION
  6. REACH COMPLIANT
  7. VERSATILE AND EASY TO REPLACE

MAIN FEATURES

OVERSIZE PADS

Our oversize pads construction system "OPCS" (patent pending) allows the creation of solid and performing cooling pads that have dimensions that exceed the standard market dimensions (600x200 mm). It is now possible to create your new cooling system without constrains.
The new "OPCS" system works by mean of a set of sticks that are assembled and glued inside the pad to connect two or more pieces together.
Our new OPCS system is available assembled or unassembled.

TOTAL OBSCURATION SPECIAL CUT (OPTIONAL)

Our total obscuration special cut ensures a maximum light reduction by eliminating any little light passage in the small interstices between one pad and another.
It's best indicated for medical cannabis production, where any tiny ray of light may compromise the quality of the crop.
Available upon request.

REGENERATED PADS

Our regenerated pads are obtained from the small pads we have in our factory.
They are a good option to save money and have the same strength and resistance in comparison to our standard pads.
Subject to availability on stock.

MILLING PROCESSING

Our milling processing custom solutions allow the installation of our pads in special machineries.
Let us know your custom dimensions and we'll find the perfect solution for your needs.
