Air Handlers for Special Applications

1. CS3 AL Frame AHU : Unit Types

Available casing thickness: nominal 1 & 2

1. Horizontal
Wide range of sizes

1 Casing: Nom. CFM 1,200 24,000

2 Casing: Nom. CFM 1,200 52,000

2. Vertical

Small footprint for maximum space utilization

1 Casing: Nom. CFM 1,200 15,000
2 Casing: Nom. CFM 1,200 24,000

3. Multi-Zone Blow Through

Dampers blend hot- and cold-deck temperatures to
produce a desired temperature for individual zone
1 Casing: Nom. CFM 2,200 15,000
2 Casing: Nom. CFM 2,200 24,000

1. CS3 AL Frame AHU : Certification

The CS3 range is : AHRI 430 certified for 50Hz & 60Hz models
ETL listed for 60Hz models

2. Casing Structure

Manufactured from extruded aluminium profile with strong nylon corners

Double skin sandwich panel injected with polyurethane foam (PU) of 40kg/m3
density, giving smooth inner surfaces for easy cleaning.

Internal joints are insulated with rigid PVC strip and PE foam to provide air-tight
casing and minimize cold bridging.

External panels are coated with powder paint to provide excellent finish and
corrosion resistance

Aluminium frame results in lighter Unit Casing Weight.

Rigid PVC Strip

2. Casing Structure Modular Design

Total MODULAR design casing gives complete unit arrangement flexibility

Shipping options available of single-piece shipment or shipment in sections

Can also be separated to knock-down form (CKD) for shipment

Sample Unit,
AHD64:
(Mixing Box+ Flat & Bag Filter Sections)
(Coil + Fan Sections)

Module length 1 = 3+3 = 6

Module length 2 = 4+5 = 9

2. Casing Structure Modular Design

Total MODULAR design, 1M = 200mm
Sample calculation of unit size

Unit height = (5 x 200)+ 50 + 100 = 1150mm (includes unit base)

Unit width = (10 x 200)+ 50 = 2050mm

Unit length 1 = (6 x 200)+ 50 = 1250mm
Unit length 2 = (9 x 200)+ 50 = 1850mm

2. Casing Structure - Access

Access panels are easily removable by air tight screwed compression latch.
Lift-up type and hinged-type access doors are also available

3. Blowers and Drives

Two types of DIDW centrifugal fans available which are AMCA certified
Forward Curved Fan
Airfoil Fan
Choice for Class I/II blowers to meet required conditions
Forward Curved Fan

Suitable for low to medium pressure airhandling applications

Advantages: low cost, low speed

Airfoil Fan

Suitable for higher static pressure

applications

Advantages: high efficiency, stronger

structure

3. Blowers and Drives - Assembly

Complete assembly of fan, motor
and drive is mounted on a
common base with internally
mounted vibration isolators
(rubber or spring according to
model size)
Standard TEFC motors with class F
insulation (IEC or Nema)
Fire retardant flexible duct
connector is provided to minimize
transmission of vibration to unit
casing
Rigid shipping brackets installed to
prevent damage during shipping

Flexible connection

All blowers are statically and dynamically

balanced. After complete assembly the
wheel is balanced to the lower vibration
