Water


It doesn't take an ocean to deliver efficient and effective cooling solutions, but a responsible cooling solution could save an ocean's worth of water. NIMBUS® Advanced Process Cooling is dedicated to providing smart cooling solutions to facilities and operations ready to BE BLUE by reducing water consumption and protecting the world's most precious resource. NIMBUS' cooling systems only introduce a conservative amount of fresh water into the cooling process when necessary, and eliminate the need for chemically treated water, costly maintenance programs, and the health risks associated with standing water, including Legionnaires' disease. The water we have now is all that has ever been and all that will ever be. Let's use it wisely.

Hybrid Adiabatic Cooling

Hybrid Adiabatic Cooling


VIRGA X3® and VIRGA III® by NIMBUS are hybrid adiabatic cooling systems born out of years of research, development, rigorous testing, and innovative engineering. NIMBUS' VIRGA cooling technology operates on a fully closed coolant path and help facilities cross the divide between traditional fluid and dry air coolers to eliminate seasonal freezing and overheating problems while preserving water, health, and energy. Every VIRGA hybrid adiabatic cooling system is manufactured in the USA and custom-engineered for the specific customer and cooling application.
