The explosion-proof modular air handling unit is an air treatment device assembled from various air processing components and does not have its own cold or heat source. It can achieve multiple functions such as explosion-proof cooling, dehumidification, humidification, and heating of air. Air handling units of all specifications are equipped with the following functional sections, which can be combined and selected by design institutes and users according to needs. Meanwhile, non-standard air handling units can be designed and manufactured based on user requirements.
The position of the fresh air/return air section can be set at the end, top, or left/right sides according to design requirements. If it is inconsistent with the layout in this catalog, the specific opening position shall be provided. Explosion-proof control valves can be installed at the fresh air and return air inlets, with two types of actuators (manual or electric) for users to choose from.
It includes two types: primary and medium efficiency filters, equipped with diamond bag filters and four-peak bag filters. The filter material is high-quality polyester non-woven fabric, and the section is also fitted with a quick filter assembly/disassembly mechanism, as well as a differential pressure display and alarm device.
A primary return air valve is installed inside the cabinet of this section. An exhaust air outlet and a fresh air inlet are respectively set on the cabinet top at the front and rear of the valve, and control valves are equipped accordingly. Its functions are as follows: when a return air fan is available, it discharges part of the return air from the air handling unit, enabling the fresh air and primary return air to mix in the required proportion. The air valve can be equipped with manual, electric, or pneumatic actuators, which are optional for users.
This section serves to connect the filter sections and provide lighting for internal maintenance of the unit. Intermediate sections must be installed before the filter section, and before and after the surface cooling section, heating section, and noise reduction section.
It is an intermediate section used to connect the secondary return air duct. A control valve can be installed on the top, equipped with manual, electric, or pneumatic control mechanisms (optional for users). This section can also be integrated into the supply air fan section.
The surface cooler adopts a structure of 4-row, 6-row, or 8-row copper tubes with aluminum fins. The aluminum fins are of double-flanged corrugated type. The large-bend heat exchanger reduces welded elbows by 60%, improving heat exchange efficiency. The advanced mechanical tube expansion method ensures the contact performance of the heat exchanger.
It is a high-efficiency heat exchanger with 1-row, 2-row, or 4-row tubes—either steel tubes with steel fins or copper tubes with aluminum fins. The heat medium used is steam or hot water.
It is equipped with a rotary heat recovery device. By utilizing the energy exchange between the indoor exhaust air and outdoor fresh air, it achieves the goal of energy conservation. In winter, it preheats the fresh air; in summer, it precools the fresh air, with an energy recovery efficiency of approximately 70%.
- Type A and Type S Supply Air Fan Sections: These adopt a horizontal air supply mode. A flexible hose is installed at the fan outlet, and a spring vibration-damping steel frame is set at the bottom, resulting in low vibration. The section can be installed and operated on the floor. The fan of this air handling unit is a high-efficiency double-inlet centrifugal explosion-proof fan.
- Type H Supply Air Fan Section: This is a supply air fan section with a top vertical upward air supply mode. A connecting flange is installed on the top, and the fan is treated with advanced anti-static technology.
Three humidification methods are available for users to choose from: dry steam humidification, high-pressure spray humidification, and wet film humidification.
- Dry Steam Humidifier: It has three control methods: manual (Model SZS), pneumatic (Model QZS), and electric (Model DZS). This humidifier features fast humidification, no water droplets, low operating costs, and good humidification effect, and is suitable for places with a steam source.
- High-Pressure Spray Humidification: It uses a direct-coupled high-pressure pump to pressurize water to 0.35 MPa, making the water flow through a new type of nozzle to spray water mist, thereby achieving the humidification effect. Its characteristics include high atomization efficiency (the average particle size SMD of the mist droplets measured by an MZVCM laser particle analyzer is 38.6 μm), so it has a large humidification capacity and fast humidification speed. Its humidification efficiency is five times higher than that of similar water-spraying chamber humidifiers. It consumes less electricity, is equipped with a built-in water filtration device, and is simple to use and maintain. It is especially suitable for places without a steam source for humidification.
This section is equipped with two types of silencers: impedance composite sheet silencers and metal micro-perforated plate silencers. Among them, the metal micro-perforated plate silencer has the advantages of high-temperature resistance, moisture resistance, and no dust generation, and users can choose according to their needs.
It uses advanced PTC electric heating elements to heat air and is used when there is no heat source such as hot water or steam.
It adopts a diffuser plate for air distribution, which has a good air distribution effect and low air resistance. This section is installed after the fan section to evenly distribute the air velocity across the cross-section of the unit.
The position of the air outlet can be set at the end, top, or left/right sides according to design requirements. If it is inconsistent with the layout in the catalog, the specific opening position shall be provided. A control valve is installed at the air outlet, and manual, electric, or pneumatic actuators can be equipped (optional for users).
According to the layout requirements of the unit sections, this section is equipped with maintenance doors for overhaul, including two types: negative pressure doors and positive pressure doors. The frame of the maintenance door is made of plastic-steel section steel, which has good sealing performance, is easy to open and close, and saves space.
Explosion-Proof PerformanceAdvanced explosion-proof technology is adopted to ensure safer and more reliable explosion-proof performance. The explosion-proof marks are Exdibmb II BT4 Gb and Exdibmb II CT4 Gb.
Modular StructureThe unit adopts a popular panel structure in appearance, with panels being modular double-layer sandwich panels and the core material being polyurethane. The cross-section of the unit can be made into various types according to design needs, meeting the application requirements of different occasions. Due to the adoption of a buckle locking structure, all panels are flush-connected, with a continuous and flat surface, and the appearance is smooth and seamless.
High Air TightnessHigh-elastic sealing strips are used for surface sealing between panels and frames, as well as between other connecting parts. This ensures that the air leakage rate of the cabinet meets the requirements specified for clean air conditioners in the GB/T 14294-1993 standard. It has good thermal insulation performance and prevents condensation.
Good Corrosion ResistanceHigh-quality color-coated steel plates, galvanized steel plates, cold-rolled steel plates, and section steels are used, which undergo phosphating and electrostatic painting treatments. Fasteners such as bolts, nuts, and self-tapping screws are all treated for corrosion resistance.
Diversified Heat Exchanger DesignsDiversified designs of heat exchangers in terms of fin type, fin pitch, circuit, and number of rows can meet the thermal performance requirements of different occasions.
Dry Water PanThe water pan is sloped in shape, ensuring smooth discharge of condensed water and keeping the water pan in a dry state at all times. This minimizes factors harmful to health.
Low-Noise and Energy-Saving TypeHigh-efficiency, low-noise double-inlet centrifugal explosion-proof fans are adopted. All fans undergo strict dynamic and static balance tests, with types including forward-curved multi-blade type, backward-curved arc type, and backward-curved airfoil type. The fan type is selected reasonably based on parameters such as air volume, air pressure, noise, and power. Additionally, the fans are treated with advanced anti-static technology.
Easy InstallationAll functional sections are connected on-site using clamping devices and bolts, which reduces assembly time. Moreover, they can be assembled on-site from scattered parts according to user requirements.
Easy MaintenanceEach functional section of the cabinet is equipped with specially designed plastic-steel maintenance doors with good air tightness. Meanwhile, the buckle locking structure is adopted, making opening and closing very convenient for the maintenance of internal components of the unit.
Special-Purpose UnitsAccording to engineering requirements, the unit can be made into special-purpose units for outdoor use, clean workshops, pharmaceutical factories, hospital operating rooms, and microelectronics rooms.
Mechatronics IntegrationFrequency converters, fan starters, and automatic control devices can be added as required to realize energy-saving operation of the unit throughout the year. Additionally, a communication interface is provided for connection with the building automation system to achieve network group control.
