United Metal Products’® Wet Bulb Energy Recovery Unit (ERU) works differently than other energy recovery systems by exchanging air at the wet bulb temperature as opposed to the traditional dry bulb or sensible exchangers. These units are perfect for commercial and industrial applications in regions with a high dry bulb temperature and relatively low wet bulb temperature such as the Western U.S. and the Middle East. The Wet Bulb ERU has the environmentally friendly advantage of virtually eliminating the sensible outside air cooling load by providing up to over 100% efficiency in high dry bulb regions without the use of CFC’s. The ERU has helped new builds achieve LEED certification, they are ETL listed/labeled, and are available with a full range of customizable options.
“The key to super efficient energy recovery efficiency in the high dry bulb regions is moving the temperature exchange at the wet bulb temperature as opposed to the dry bulb level when the air exits the unit. When this innovative and unique method is implemented, energy recovery efficiencies of over 100% can be attained. Not only does this translate into a smaller carbon footprint left on the environment, but it also means an increase in an organization’s bottom line. ” —Steve Kinkel, CEO of United Metal Products
