Vortex Tube and Industrial Spot Cooling

Vortex tube and Industrial Spot Cooling Systems systems are a very specialized technology of which there are many suppliers but very few who really understand it.  Nex Flow™ is one of the few that do understand the technology and continually does research in the field.   A vortex tube is a device that takes compressed air and literally splits it up into a hot and cold stream.  The cold stream is used for “spot cooling” or for cooling enclosures of all sorts but especially to cool cabinet enclosures or control panels and also industrial cameras.  Vortex tube technology provided by Nex Flow™ uses compressed air but it can also use other inert gas like nitrogen.  Nex Flow™ has even produced a special size for a project to use natural gas.  Research continues to develop other applications for this unique technology and to improve the efficiency of the products.

Vortex Tubes have the following advantages:

1. Compact
2. No moving parts
3. No electricity
4. Lightweight
5. Portable

Apart from special designs, the vortex tube technology is available in the following configurations under the Nex Flow™ Frigid-X™ trademark as follows:

1. Frigid-X™ Vortex tube unit itself
2. Packaged Frigid-X™ Panel Cooler for cooling control panels
3. Packaged as the Frigid-X™ adjustable spot cooler
4. Packaged as the Frigid-X™ tool cooler or a smaller mini cooler
5. Packaged to cool liquid as the Frigid-X™ mist cooler
