Comparison of plastic cooling pads and paper evaporative cooling pads

Compared with paper evaporative cooling pads, plastic evaporative cooling pads have the following differences:
Corrugated structure: The corrugations on plastic pads tend to be U-shaped and much larger than those on traditional paper pads. This affects the way air flows through the pad and the cooling effect.
Water holding capacity: Since plastic pads do not absorb water, more water is required than traditional paper pads to ensure that the entire pad is completely wet. At the same time, plastic pads also take less time to dry.
Dirt impact: The corrugations on plastic pads are larger, and a small amount of dirt has little effect on static pressure. While the corrugations on paper pads are smaller, dirt will quickly increase the static pressure of the tunnel fan and reduce air speed.
Cost and return on investment: Whether the additional cost of plastic evaporative cooling pads has a good return on investment depends on the quality of the water circulating on the pad. The worse the water quality, the more obvious the economy of plastic evaporative cooling pads.
Plastic evaporative cooling pads are energy-saving, environmentally friendly, low-noise, easy to maintain and highly adaptable cooling equipment. When selecting and using them, their characteristics and application scenarios should be fully considered to ensure the best cooling effect.
