SK | SideKick | Dry Fluid Cooler

The Hydron Module SideKick Dry Fluid Cooler can function by itself or with a ground loop system. Designed for installation outdoors, the fluid cooler is the solution for closed ground loop systems in cooling-dominant climates and for stand-alone water-source heat pumps. When coupled with a ground loop, the SideKick removes the surplus of heat from the loop fluid for increased efficiencies. The Sidekick can fit a variety of needs for structures such as military bases, residential developments, office buildings, and more.

Capacity	Heat Rejection Capacity¹ BTUH	CAir Temp. into Fluid Cooler²(DB) F	Air ΔT F	Water Flow Rate GPM	Water Temp. into Fluid Cooler F	Water ΔT through fluid cooler F	Approach Temperature³ F
3-ton	37,300	70°	13°	9	90°	8°	11.7
	37,900	90°	13°	9	110°	8°	11.6°

Notes:
* Air flow is set at 2,650 SCFM for the 3-ton
1. DSH is turned off, the heat rejection capacity is the capacity of the fluid cooler. The fluid cooler can mitigate a major proportion of heat load
2. The fluid cooler can handle the heat load at very hot ambient temperature
3. Approach temperature is defined as the temperature difference between leaving water temp and entering air temp of the fluid cooler.
