Liebert Air Conditioning – What we Make of It
One prominent forerunner in the HVAC community is Liebert. For years, it has contributed great, practical designs and innovations for the convenience of the world. And now at a time of crisis and global warming, Liebert came up with lots of elegant yet affordable solutions.
The latest Liebert air conditioning systems provide year-round cooling and ‘auto-protection’ from environmental hazards such as dust, temperature and humidity. Sophisticated Liebert innovations include ceiling and wall-mount systems for spot, room and telecom shelter applications, stand-alone, and liquid chilling systems for industrial equipment and medical imaging. Ceiling or wall mount Liebert air conditioning system is a unit designed to be placed in the ceiling or upper part of wall. Strategically, its pumped refrigerant is perfect for use even near electronic equipment because it operates using low pressure in the piping circuit.
Another unique type is the Liebert cooling and humidity control system which can be installed underneath a raised floor (like in data centres) where the flow of configuration combines top air return with bottom air supply to circulate air underneath the floor. Adjustable standard floor stands may be used to install this kind but the use of floor stands are optional. Another model is portable enough to stand on its own, which is called stand-alone. Indeed, there are a variety of Liebert air conditioning models.
Generally, all these types are very strategic to use. With the use of open or closed architecture, water-based or pumped refrigerant-based technology, a complete reliable control of temperature, precise humidity and air flow is guaranteed. The cutting edge technology allows configurations of the traditional window type air conditioners so that air conditioners now can suit space limited areas such as computer and equipment rooms (where sensitive electronics and people share the same space). Liebert units can be placed behind or adjacent to other equipment or against a wall or partition. Their modular frame can be separated into three sections, allowing the unit to fit through tight spaces like small elevators. As a whole, these are space-saving systems.
Moreover, the perfectly assembled Liebert systems which incorporate highly efficient compressors, condensers, and dry-coolers ensure uninterrupted and proper operation of the cooling systems. Such designs provide stable and almost vibration-less platforms for fan and compressor operation. Thus, these result in high energy efficiency systems and low noise models.
Liebert systems virtually encompass temperature, humidity, filtration and airflow in the most sensitive areas like computer rooms. Though it provides maximum energy efficiency, it does not compromise the accuracy and reliability needed by sensitive electronics.
With its autophoretic frame coating, the system is durable enough to be protected against corrosion for years of reliable service. Further, even if the unit is small, all basic components are visibly and accessibly located in front of the unit for easy removal and maintenance. Just like the most essential part compressor, Liebert system has it as a removable part in front of the unit, far from the air stream, for easier maintenance.
