Personal Air Conditioners (PAC) use a compressed air supply and vortex tube technology to keep workers comfortable in extremely hot environments. With no moving parts, the vortex tube spins compressed air to force a simple heat exchange that produces cold air to 60° F below the inlet temperature. The small vortex tube, worn on a supplied belt, is connected to the company's Diffuse-Air Vest, which has perforated lining to provide cooled air delivery over the upper body. Temperature is easily adjusted by turning a knob on the vortex tube. The PAC offers consistent, continuous, controllable cooling. The vest can be worn under welding leathers and other protective gear and allows full range of motion with no airflow restrictions. Large and extra-large vests are available, each with a collar that can be unfolded to deliver tempered airflow to the neck and face. PACs that offer cooling and heating are also available.
