How WIHO keeps production cool and machines precise with IntrCooll

WIHO, an Austrian metalworking company, was looking for a sustainable way to cool their production halls. With IntrCooll's comfortable cooling, they provide an optimal environment on the shop floor. Also, the reliability of the precision machines is guaranteed with a maximum temperature tolerance of 2°C. Check out the reference video on WIHO's experience with the IntrCooll.

How to keep flash rust to a minimum

Rust and other oxidizing types of corrosion start when a surface is exposed to higher humidity for more than a day. The corrosion rate is defined in millimetres per year (mm/a); thus, the time a surface is exposed to higher humidity levels is essential. To prevent condensation or high surface humidity, the dew point must be lower than the surface temperature.

Oxycom’s patented dual-stage adiabatic cooling system delivers supply air temperatures that are 4 to 7°C (7–13°F) lower than conventional direct evaporative cooling systems. Because of this deeper cooling effect, up to 30% less airflow is required to maintain comfortable indoor conditions, while moisture input into the building is reduced by up to 70%. This significantly lowers the risk of flash rust, an essential advantage for metal manufacturing environments.

IntrCooll’s programmable thermostat includes an integrated relative humidity sensor. When a preset (adjustable) humidity limit is reached, the system automatically raises the temperature setpoint to keep humidity under control. This ensures stable indoor conditions while protecting metal products, machinery, and processes.

The right indoor climate for every season

In the metal industry, a stable working environment is essential for metal processing and productivity. Our sustainable two-stage adiabatic cooling system provides optimal climate control, combining efficient cooling with continuous ventilation while saving up to 90% energy. In winter, the system can also provide sustainable heating through heat recovery, ensuring an optimal work climate year-round and preventing negative pressure issues.

We deliver excellent climate

Metal processing releases a lot of heat, oil vapors and welding fumes (dust and toxic gases). These conditions negatively affect your employees' comfort and well-being. Therefore, cooling and optimal ventilation are fundamental. IntrCooll cools your factory with fresh, filtered outside air. The steady flow of ventilation refreshes the inside air completely several times an hour.

Only the best for your employees
IntrCooll delivers air with a low temperature and good relative humidity. Fresh, cool air creates comfort and well-being for your valuable employees. The pleasant working climate results in increased productivity and higher output.

Unique two-stage cooling
IntrCooll uses two-stage, indirect/direct adiabatic cooling (IDEC). This natural cooling process cools fresh air in the first indirect step, using cold recirculation water, without water evaporation. The chilled air is cooled even further by direct evaporation with the patented Oxyvap® at this final step. Humidity levels remain low and chances of flash rust are minimized, making IntrCooll a reliable climate control solution for the metal industry.

Year-round profit
Oxycom provides your factory with the perfect climate, even in winter and spring. IntrCooll's Heat Reclaim module reuses indoor heat to warm up fresh outdoor air.

IntrCooll is the perfect fit for all activities within the metal industry:
