ITW Air Management - Worker Comfort in Hot or Cold Environments

Print Print
See Product Details

Personal Air Conditioners (PACs) use filtered compressed air and vortex tube technology to keep workers comfortable in extremely hot or cold areas. PACs use the Model 855 or 857 Diffuse Air Vest to distribute cooled or heated air over the upper body

Applications:

Unlike "ice pack" type vests, the PAC offers consistent and continuous cooling to minimize heat stress and increase worker productivity in hot surroundings. The vest allows full range of motion with no airflow restrictions and can be worn under welding leathers or protective clothing. The vortex tube unit, worn on a supplied belt, cools or heats inlet temperature by ±60°F Vortec PAC's provide effective cooling or heating, and are especially popular for workers operating in or near:
