run even more cost-effectively, since the
borehole negates the need for potable
water. The only additional requirement
was a water side stream filtration unit,
which was provided by Water Upington.
This was a crucial addition to remove
any dissolved minerals that may have
shortened the lifespan of the evaporative
condensing unit.
EP needed to
complete the
installation while the
facility remained 100%
operational and, as far
as possible, they would
have to work around
existing equipment.

an eLumac Refrigeration Evaporator project was ensuring that no further
Controller, as well as Danfoss electronic production and stock losses would be
expansion valves and supply air, incurred. EP needed to complete the
return air, evaporating, and suction installation while the facility remained

One interesting advantage with this
project was that the client already had
a borehole on site that was primarily
they would have to work around existing
equipment.
The team decided that the best way
being used to clean floors and other forward would be to plan the installation
components. This meant that the in each individual area around the client’s
evaporative condensers that were production schedules and to determine for
specified for the site could be made to how long each section of the facility could
