Racing Ahead In Dubai
Aqua Cooling have been instrumental in the installation of two equestrian walkers at a state of the art equestrian centre in the Dubai desert.
The 18 metre diameter walkers are used in the advanced training of racing and endurance horses. By using specially cooled water to excercise the animals, their heart beats are raised to aerobic level which in turn improves their stamina and muscle condition. In addition, by using cooled sea water, the walkers can be crucial in aiding the recovery of injured horses.
Aqua were responsible for the complete installation of the chiller units and complex pumping and filtration systems. Each chiller is capable of 130kW output and has extremely low noise emmitance. The filtration systems had to go down to just 1 micron to allow for the walkers switching between conventional water and sea water.
