Why do Vehicles Require Air Conditioning

Over the last few years air conditioning has become a familiar feature on many types of vehicle. Today nearly all medium and large cars have air conditioning as standard equipment and it is becoming increasingly popular on many other types of commercial vehicle.

Many people used to believe that air conditioning was only required in tropical, or at least Mediterranean climates. This is no longer the belief as more and more people realise the benefits of air conditioning vehicles here in the U.K.

Whether our summers are actually getting warmer or not is open to debate, but what is certain is that today's congested roads and lifestyle means that people are spending much more time in vehicles. Air conditioning not only reduces the general temperature on extremely hot days but also makes the general environment within the vehicle much more comfortable even on average days.

On a sunny spring or autumn day where the outside temperature is
only 15 degrees, the interior temperature can reach over 30 degrees. In addition air conditioning can reduce uncomfortable levels of humidity and pollution within the vehicle.

 

Difference between A/C and Climate Control

Eberspacher are especially qualifified to offer fully automatic climate control units combining the benefits of Eberspacher's range of independent fuel fired heaters and Diavia's air conditioning equipment.

More and more customers are now specifying Climate Control units, especially for vehicles operating in busy urban areas.

A lot of people appreciate the benefits of air conditioning, but the benefits of Climate control are only just beginning to become more widely appreciated. Whereas air conditioning is usually only used on warm days, climate control systems give benefits all year round.

Climate control systems have an air conditioning unit combined with an Eberspacher Hydronic water heater, providing air to both driver and saloon passengers at any user selected temperature between 18 and 28 degrees Centigrade.

This temperature is regulated and remains constant whether night or day, winter or summer. The fan speeds are also automatically regulated.

This system thus provides dehumidified warm air on wet winter days as well as cool dry air in summer. The windows of the vehicle are kept free of condensation and the driver and passenger feel more comfortable all year round. Since there is no need for a separate air heater in climate systems, customers do not have a problem locating the air heater in a vehicle with flexible seating.

Eberspacher Climate Control systems are fitted as standard equipment on the Optare Alero and are optional on many other manufacturers minibuses as well as an increasing number of specialist applications.

Evapourative Cooling Systems from Viesa

ViesaViesa1

 

 

 

VIESA is a totally ecological climate control system. It cools the truck's cabin, even with the engine stopped.

 
VIESA does not harm the engine. Viesa uses its own self-contained motor, without the need for a compressor. Because it works with the engine stopped, it decreases wear and tear on the cylinders and other engine parts.

VIESA does not consume fuel. The driver does not need to keep the engine running while resting in the cabin.

 VIESA increases the mental and physical output of the driver. It enables the driver to travel in comfortable conditions, avoiding fatigue and reducing the risk of accidents.

VIESA keeps the cabin cool on short stopovers.
Whether the driver needs to stop for a delivery, lunch or refuel the engine, Viesa will keep the cabin cool and comfortable without idling.

VIESA is completely ecological.
It only consumes water. During operation, it makes no use of internal combustion engines, nor does it use chemical coolants, emitting gases into the atmosphere. Thus, it does not contaminate the environment.
