Personal Air Conditioners (PACs) use filtered compressed air and vortex tube technology to keep workers comfortable in extremely hot or cold areas. PACs use the Model 855 or 857 Diffuse Air Vest to distribute cooled or heated air over the upper body.

A forging plant reported more than 30% increase in productivity using model 22825 PAC's with vests, eliminating an average of four daily cool-down periods for their workers.

Leading manufacturers of welding hoods, respirators and breathing apparatus incorporate ITW Vortec Personal Air Conditioners into their products as a cooling option.

Unbearable summer heat in a metal plating and finishing facility prompted the owner to equip his workers with model 22815 PAC's.
