Challenges
Scientechnic's sheet metal manufacturing factory is located in the Jebel Ali Industrial Area of Dubai,
where the ambient temperatures are higher than 44°C, especially in the summer
In addition to high ambient temperatures, activities such as sheet metal shearing, bending, etc.,
generate a high amount of sensible heat inside the factory
Scientechnic needed a cooling system to provide a comfortable working environment for their workers,
working in a double height factory building spread over an area of 35,000 square feet
Cooling the space with conventional air conditioning (AC) systems was ruled out, as it would entail
high operating cost, and especially because air recirculation is not advised in manufacturing areas
The management at Scientechnic needed a sustainable solution that would provide a comfortable
working environment for the workers and still be economical to operate

Solution
After a detailed study of the plant, ambient conditions, and the heat load, HMX proposed the
installation of IDEC (Indirect Direct Evaporative Cooling) units, which would provide:
100% fresh, cool and filtered air
Continuous removal of dust and fumes
Better IAQ (indoor air quality)
Low operating expenses as compared to a conventional AC system

Result – a happy customer!
HMX IDEC units are supplying air at 19.2°C while the outdoor temperature is around 44°C in summer.
Workstations inside the factory are maintained at a temperature of less than 28°C.
Better Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) as 100% fresh, cool, and filtered air is diffused to the individual working
stations creating a comfortable environment around the workers
Positive pressure ensures a dust free environment
Energy consumption is less than half of conventional air-conditioning systems – a highly cost-effective
solution
Scientechnic is very happy with the performance of the HMX-IDEC units
