The Nivis snow lances equipped with the patented Nivis injection system and need neither compressed air nor their own compressor unit. The injector patented by Nivis aspirates ambient air and creates a water-air mixture which is pulverized directly through the nozzle head. For this process is no electrical energy needed what allows a significant saving of energy costs for the snowmaking system.
The Nivis snowmaking lance Ecostick is equipped with up to 3 specially developed injectors for optimal performance under all weather conditions.
The models MONO, DUO, TRIO are available as manual or automatic versions. The manual versions need no power supply. The automatic versions need it just to command valves and measure temperature and pressure.
Nivis Ecostick snowmaking system without compressor has the following advantages:
- Extremely low operational costs for energy, as no pressurized air (usually about 4 kW/5.44 HP per lance) is needed
- Low acquisition costs
- No maintenance costs for compressors
- Conservation of nature and natural resources
- It’s easily possible to add or retool any existing snow making plant of any kind (e.g. fan guns) with Ecostick lances. This makes the Nivis system compatible to any kind of plant
- It’s easy to construct an extremely effective snow making plant for marginal temperatures
- Very simple handling especially the manual version
- The most efficient, most sustainable and most innovative way to make snow. The Nivis system efects an economy of energy, weight, materials and reduces maintenance and noise
