Combat by Roberts-Gordon IDF-Series Optional Cooling Packages
Evaporative Cooling
COMBAT® by Roberts-Gordon IDF-Series evaporative cooling system is an economical cooling solution. It requires no air-
cooled condenser, no chiller or cooling tower, no chilled water pumps or distribution piping/insulation, no major motor control
center or electrical gear. Operating costs are a fraction of similar-capacity mechanical refrigeration systems.
Evaporative cooling works when warm air passes over specially treated wetted media. The heat passes from the air to the
wetted media, causing the water to evaporate and inside air to cool.
Mechanical Cooling
For situations requiring temperature and humidity levels lower than the performance parameters available with outdoor air
alone or with evaporative cooling, COMBAT® by Roberts-Gordon IDF-Series offer a broad range of cooling options.
Cooling options can be added by simply installing coil sections equipped with the appropriate cooling coils and a condensing
unit or chiller. The versatility afforded by the coil section enables you to utilize DX refrigerant, chilled water or other types of
cooling coils in your system.
