Misting Cool System Prevents Heat Hazards for Workers

Share:
The Taiwan Ministry of Labor plans to revise the "Occupational Safety and Health Facility Regulations" in August 2024 to prevent labor from suffering heat-related hazards in high-temperature environments. This revision will mandate that outdoor workplaces be equipped with cooling devices to ensure worker safety. In the near future, employers will face fines if employer fail to implement adequate heat hazard prevention measures and temperatures exceed certain thresholds.
 

Challenges of Heat Hazards and Its Solution

Heat hazards refer to health issues caused by excessive body temperature in high-temperature environments. These issues include heat stroke, dehydration, heat cramps, and heat exhaustion, which can be life-threatening in severe cases. To mitigate these risks, effective cooling, adequate hydration, and frequent rest are essential preventive measures. To mitigate these risks, effective cooling, adequate hydration, and frequent rest are essential preventive measures. The recent legislative amendment focuses on enhancing cooling measures by mandating that future work environments be equipped with three essential cooling devices: portable air conditioners, misting systems, and electric fans.
 

The Importance of Misting (Fogging) Cooling Systems

Since outdoor work environments differ from indoor environments and cannot accommodate traditional air conditioning, the most effective cooling method is mist cooling systems. These systems cool the air by absorbing significant heat through water evaporation. Additionally, combining mist cooling with fans can further expand the cooling range and improve cooling efficiency.
Recommended Misting(Fogging) Cooling Systems:
Air-Cool Series:
The Air-Cool series offers three different models based on the size of the fan: Air-Cool Junior, Air-Cool, and Air-Cool Max. These portable misting fan systems are designed for use in semi-open outdoor spaces and outdoor areas.

Dust Suppression Cannon:
The Dust Suppression Cannon is a high-pressure misting system combined with an axial fan, designed to cover a larger area. Its primary function is industrial dust control, but it also provides cooling effect.

Windmill Fan:
The Windmill Fan combines an extended airflow range with a misting function, making it suitable for installation in open spaces where ceiling fans cannot be hung. It is ideal for locations such as sports venues, livestock farms, and factories.
