ABSTRACT:
An evaporative cooler with superimposed pad assemblies adapted to provide for efficient operation of an evaporative cooler having substantially greater elevation and corresponding area, than conventional evaporative coolers of a comparable horizontal cross section, wherein progressive redistribution of water from rearward lower portions of superimposed pad assemblies toward upper inlet sides of the respective pad assemblies provides for great cooling capacity in proportion to the horizontal cross section of a cooler. The disclosure also including details of disposable pad assemblies for superimposed disposition relative to each other in an evaporative cooler in spaced relation to an inlet louver grill thereof. The disclosure being additionally related to the normal operation of superimposed evaporative cooler pad assemblies to prevent thinning of the saturated pad area of evaporative cooler pads near their lower portions in response to air flow from the inlet to the outlet sides of such pad assemblies. Further the disclosure relates to one standard size of evaporative cooler pad for coolers of various CFM capacities.
The disclosure also relates to an evaporative cooler having means for opening the top thereof directly above the evaporative cooler pads and their respective water receiving troughs so as to provide for visual inspection of the flow of water into said troughs whereby proper adjustments may be made so that water is uniformly distributed to the troughs and the various evaporative cooler pads of the evaporative cooler.
