The hybrid adiabatic cooling technology used by VIRGA III® and VIRGA X3™ systems was born in Europe in response to widespread regulations aimed at preventing the spread of Legionnaires' disease by replacing traditional evaporative cooling systems, one of the most common breeding grounds for Legionella.
VIRGA III & VIRGA X3 hybrid adiabatic cooling systems eliminate standing water in favor of a fully closed coolant path, and the intermittent use of fresh water to augment the system's cooling capacity only on the hottest days of the year.
Hybrid Adiabatic Cooling provides efficient, natural, and sustainable cooling technology for virtually any application.

Corrosion-Resistant Copper Tubing
The VIRGA hybrid adiabatic cooling system releases a fine water spray into the air prior to the air being pulled over the copper cooling tubes – lowering the air temperature and increasing the heat rejection capacity of the unit. The control system cycles individual fans as process water temperature dictates, and ultimately activates the fine spray of water when required. During the colder months, water spray activation is not required and the unit operates as a dry air cooler — eliminating sump freezing and dangerous ice buildup common with traditional fluid coolers.
