What is air conditioning? Air conditioning systems adjust the temperature, humidity, cleanliness, and air movement of an enclosed space according to human health and comfort. The term air conditioning comes from the English phrase “air condition.” In our language, both the terms *air conditioning* and *climate control* are used. Air conditioners and cooling systems cool the air of the environment, bringing working conditions to optimal levels. The concept of air conditioning generally refers to the process of removing indoor air humidity for cooling or thermal comfort.
The importance of air conditioning
Looking at the history of air conditioning systems, we go back to the years before technology entered our lives. In ancient times, storing food in caves or underground to prevent spoilage also served as a form of air conditioning. With settled life, air conditioning systems were introduced to heat or cool buildings and homes. Initially applied as a necessity, today, with technological advancements, production is carried out for human benefit. Nowadays, air conditioning devices are indispensable in every aspect of life. Air conditioning is used both in summer and winter. In summer, it is used for cooling and maintaining humidity balance, while in winter, it is used for heating. In both seasons, it circulates air and removes dust, dirt, and germs. During installation, an environmentally friendly approach is preferred, which adds value for users.
How air conditioning systems work
Cooling systems operate on the principle of evaporating a liquid refrigerant at a desired temperature under a specific pressure and then converting it back to liquid form. One type of pump used for heating and cooling is the inline pump. Inline pumps, with suction and discharge flanges on the same line, can be directly connected to the system. Inline pumps are used in water treatment systems, industrial applications, and air conditioning systems (heating and cooling). There are two types of inline pumps: wet-rotor and dry-rotor inline pumps.
Wet-rotor inline pumps
Wet-rotor inline pumps are divided into three groups: Modul A series, AX series, and AD Modul A-D series.
- Modul A series: MAS pumps with “Eco Design” label provide up to 80% electricity savings. Replacing old pumps with MAS Modul A pumps pays off quickly. With an EEI ≤ 0.17, Modul A pumps are in the “Best in Class” category, offering over 80% energy and cost efficiency compared to traditional uncontrolled pumps in efficiency class D. The interface module allows integration with all building control systems easily, and the remote adapter has Wi-Fi capability for wireless communication with smartphones.
- AX series: User-friendly pumps with simple control buttons and indicator lights. Equipped with internal motor protection, no external motor protection is needed. They feature fault and operating messages, quiet operation due to durable flat bearings, high-temperature resistance, improved water entry for bearing lubrication, and adjustable power limitation.
- AD Modul A-D series: Provides up to 80% energy savings. With EEI ≤ 0.17, they are highly efficient. Interface module allows simple integration with building control systems, and the remote adapter has Wi-Fi for wireless smartphone communication. Suitable for almost all performance categories and applications in heating circulation.
- Dry-rotor inline pumps: Dry-rotor inline pumps are divided into CSV, INM, Genio INM, and INM Duo series.
- CSV series: Double-suction vertical inline centrifugal pump with two grease-lubricated rolling bearings and mechanical seal for leak prevention. High efficiency with double-sided suction impeller design, compliant with IEC, DIN, VDE, and TSE standards, capable of use with variable frequency drives.
- INM series: Single-stage, non-self-priming inline centrifugal pumps with standard motors and mechanical seals. Flanges comply with DIN 2535 PN 16 pressure class, suction and discharge flanges are identical and on the same axis, equipped with pressure taps. Axial loads are balanced with rear rings and dynamically balanced impellers. Motor coupled to pump via adapter and flange; easy maintenance and installation.
- Genio INM series: Inline pumps with motor-mounted frequency inverters, compact design, compatible with various sensors, quiet and safe operation. Flanges follow DIN 2535 PN 16 pressure class.
- INM Duo series: Twin-mounted inline pumps formed by combining two single-stage non-self-priming pumps. Manufactured with standard motors and mechanical seals. Flanges comply with DIN 2535 PN 16, suction and discharge flanges are identical and aligned, with pressure taps on both flanges.
