Well, since there are not a lot of takers I shall take a stab at it then. The black plastic unit on the left appears to be a portable, industrial 'swamp cooler' evaporative cooler used to assist cooling the white commercial heat exchanger on the right. The heat exchanger probably derives chilled water and/or steam from a municipal provider and would be used to heat/cool a multi-story office building like you would find in downtown Oklahoma City. (Well, I suppose not then, you say no water is involved...ammonia maybe?)

That was a good try for no more than one can see in the pic but you are in left field way out left near the fence This is a trick question (conditioner)

I will wait for one of the commercial guys to come along good try though.

Charlie, Is this a scrubber of some sort. Hard to tell from the picture, can't be water due to the black pipe installation. Oh well, I'll keep thinking. Looks familiar.

Good guess or perhaps not a guess yes it is a screw type Ingersoll rand air compressor. I thought the air drop out traps would of given it away. There are 5 of these compressors in this R&D building providing control air for the pneumatics on the AHU's and to all of the labs. The air is discharged through a set of refrigerated air dryers for final moisture removal.
