Note whether fan blades are broken or if cone set screw is loose. Check fan blades and pump cone, rotating by hand. Check filter for mineral/salt deposits that can cause the filter to perform very poorly.ġ. Refer to Item 5, "Adjustment Procedures" on to reset.Ħ. If water depth is less than 3/4" - 1" depress float and observe if water is flowing thru the valve. Check to see pump cone tip is submerged in water and check 1/2 - 3/4" clearance between end of pump cone and bottom of circular waterpan.ĥ. If dirty, clean as directed under maintenance.Ĥ. Check water level, water supply lines and valve.ģ. If no air flow, check above items 1 thru 5.Ģ. Check for mineral/salt deposits in and around mechanical parts such as fan blade, spin-spray pump and water cup.ġ. Rotate fan by hand to check for interference with venturi opening, filter, pump rubbing on bottom of baffle or motor frozen.Ħ. With speed switch in OFF position, remove hood. If installed on trailer and operated on vehicle battery, check if inner connection correct.ĥ. Check fuse and charge level of battery.Ĥ. Check wire connections at switches, resistors, at wire nuts and at power supply.ģ. Try switches at all speeds in both directions.Ģ. Great for use on: RVs / Campers / Caravans,ġ. Manufacturer 1 year warranty on all parts.Does not include vent frame, water filter, mounting gusset, accumulator tank, 3 gallon water tank or 15 gallon water tank.Easy installation with simple hand tools.Fits all standard 14" x 14" roof vent openings.Consumes approximately 3 gallons of water a day.Temperature reduction is usually between 20 - 30 degrees.Amp draw: High: 4.6 amps Med: 3.2 amps Low: 2.2 amps.Operates with a solar panel and/or on a standard 12-volt system.Dry-camping is finally a real pleasure.Pump can not be damaged if run without water.Body and hood are UV protected to prevent cracking, discoloration and fading.Unit can also be used as an exhaust fan.Individually adjustable louvres for air distribution the way you direct it.

#Vintage swamp cooler for car generator
No generator or 110v power needed to run TurboKOOL.Converts hot, stuffy and dirty air to cool, clean air.SPIN-SPRAY action literally washes dust, pollen and impurities from the air & filter.TurboKOOL can be adapted to nearly any remote, stand-alone cooling requirement.Non-organic industrial foam filter element - no bacterial growth or foul odors.Much more efficient than dripping water over a filter. Spraying water over entire surface of filter ensures peak cooling and filtering.No bearings or motors exposed to wet air.Dry air used to cool motor for longer motor life."Spin-Spray" pump cannot wear out or burn out.Cool air without the expense, noise & fumes of an A/C / generator combination.Hot, dirty air becomes clean, cool air as the spin-spray action washes out dust, pollen and impurities. The TurboKOOL’s three-speed, exceptionally quiet, air cooled reversible motor cools down the inside of your RV and you can also use this as an exhaust fan. As I heard it from someone who researched it heavily, even that system could not exceed the 35 degree temperature drop.The TurboKOOL RV Evaporative Air Swamp Cooler is the first successful, trouble-free and economical solar or 12-volt evaporative cooling system of its type for recreational vehicles. The cool water in the reservoir is circulated through a heat exchanger which precools the incoming air prior to the direct evaporative cooling process.
As the non-evaporated portion of the water returns to the reservoir, it has been cooled by the evaporation of other water, just as the air has. There are evaporative cooler systems (I think MasterCool makes/made one) that employs a heat exchanger in a different manner. The temperature drop just isn't enough to make it act like a traditional A/C system (35 degree drop in very dry air is the best I've ever achieved). I've never seen a system that employs a heat exchanger as described. Effective evaporative cooling requires a very large surface area and, generally, fairly large volumes of air. I don't quite understand the proposed design.
I've also seen more traditional, fan-driven evaporative coolers built for automobiles. Yep, a big cylinder hanging on the window.
