This article describes the development of the SolabCool®. The SolabCool® is an air-conditioning unit for one family dwellings and or small offices. It is based on solar or waste heat driven adsorption cooling. The process is intermittent, so 2 tanks with silica gel at reduced pressures are used. To make the machine cost-effective and easy to use, two completely new valves were developed, patented and implemented, in combination with an advanced control unit. A pilot manufacturing plant is in operation since end of 2013. The first modules were produced and tested. The maximum so-called cold factor for the SolabCool® is 0.55. The cold factor is rather stable at a large variety of operation conditions, i.e. climate conditions. This is a very good result compared to other semi-intermittent air-conditioners. Demonstration in the market in The Netherlands started in 2014. The design freeze of the SolabCool® is carried out in the summer of 2014 and the pilot production will start.
