Keeping animal sheds, greenhouses, and even warehouses cool, especially in warmer climates, is crucial for productivity and comfort. Evaporative cooling stands out as a proven and highly effective method for achieving this. WASSERCARE introduces its innovative PPpad Plastic Components for Evaporative Coolers, designed for optimal performance and longevity.
What are PPpad Fills?
PPpad fills are specially engineered plastic components mounted within the walls of structures like stables and greenhouses. They are continuously irrigated, allowing an airflow generated by fans to pass through them. As air moves through the wetted fills, it becomes humidified and cooled, creating a comfortable and controlled environment.
The secret to PPpad’s superior performance lies in its material and design. Made from a durable polypropylene compound with a special geometry, these elements are imperishable, UV-resistant, and highly resistant to light. When properly maintained, they provide consistent cooling capacity throughout their lifetime.
Key Features of WASSERCARE PPpad Fills:
- Excellent Cooling Capacity: Designed for maximum heat exchange and cooling efficiency.
- Easy to Clean: Simple maintenance ensures sustained performance.
- Long Service Life: The robust polypropylene material guarantees durability.
- High Light Resistance & UV-Resistant: Built to withstand harsh environmental conditions without degradation.
- Low Pressure Loss: Ensures efficient airflow with minimal energy consumption from fans.
- High Efficiency: Delivers superior cooling results compared to many alternatives.
- Easy Installation: Designed for straightforward setup in various applications.
Technical Specifications (PP 608 Model):
| Type | Applications | Material | Specific surface area (m²/m³) | Max. height (mm) | Max. width (mm) | Depth (mm) |

Maximum tolerances: On all dimensions +/- 25 mm or 2% whichever is the greater. Other tolerances and dimensions by prior agreement.
PP-material: Impact-resistant, environmentally friendly.
Performance Data:
The charts below illustrate the efficiency and pressure drop characteristics of PPpad fills:
Efficiency of PPpad
| Air velocity (m/s) | 0.5 | 1 | 1.5 | 2 | 2.5 |
| :—————– | :—— | :—— | :—— | :—— | :—— |
| PPpad (0.75 m³/mh) | 78.0% | 74.5% | 71.0% | 67.5% | 64.0% |
| PPpad (1.5 m³/mh) | 82.0% | 78.3% | 74.5% | 71.0% | 67.0 % |
| Competitor Plastic pad (1.5 m³/mh) | 78.0 % | 73.5% | 69.0% | 64.5% | 60.0% |
As shown, PPpad fills, especially the 1.5 m³/mh model, consistently outperform competitor plastic pads in cooling efficiency across various air velocities.
The pressure drop graph demonstrates that while cooling capacity is maintained, the pressure loss across the PPpad remains manageable, contributing to energy efficiency.
Why Choose WASSERCARE PPpad?
Compared to traditional cooling pads, PPpad fills offer significant advantages. They are made from an inorganic material, preventing issues like organic growth (algae/mold) that can plague other systems. This means a longer lifespan, less frequent replacement, and a more cost-effective solution overall.
PPpad fills are specifically designed for cooling animal sheds and greenhouses. Their excellent cooling performance at low pressure loss and rugged, long-lasting polypropylene material make them a superior choice. Their ease of cleaning means less regular exchange, offering a big advantage over other products on the market.
