AIRotor Series - R™
The Series–R™ heat wheel is a total energy exchanger that transfers both heat and water vapor between airstreams. Because of its construction, it is highly effective yet causes very little pressure drop. When used for ventilation, it can dramatically reduce both the cost of other necessary heating and cooling equipment as well as the operating cost of the ventilation system.
Applications
The Series–R can be used to improve and control indoor air quality in a wide variety of applications. For example, they have been used for years in:
- Auditoriums
- Child Care Facilities
- Churches
- City Halls and Community Facilities
- Commercial and Military Offices
- Conference Centers
- Controlled Climate Factories
- Correctional Facilities
- Healthcare Facilities, Hospitals, and Clinics
- Hotels
- Industrial Process Facilities
- Laboratories
- Libraries
- Low Humidity Industrial Processes
- Maintenance Facilities
- Museums
- Nursing Homes
- Process Manufacturing Facilities
- Recreational and Fitness Centers
- Schools and Universities
- Welding Areas
- Zoos
Value
Payback for the Series–R begins prior to installation. The ability to recover otherwise-wasted energy from exhaust airstreams reduces the load on other mechanical heating and cooling equipment by up to 85%, allowing smaller and less expensive equipment to be used.
- High energy transfer effectiveness, low pressure drop, minimum maintenance, and value-added features such as factory installed controls make the Series–R a unique product among its competitors.
- Our global experience goes back to 1975 when we first developed and began to manufacture thin-sheet aluminum heat wheels to improve indoor air quality for industrial facilities in Sweden.
- ARI Performance Certification provides you assurance of product performance.
- The Series–R is ETL tested and listed under the Standard for Heating and Cooling Equipment ANSI-UL-1995, CAN/CSA-22.2 No 236-05, 3rd Edition.
- Non-sectioned wheel construction reduces product and field assembly costs while improving overall performance.
- Highly effective seals, purge system, and non-contaminating desiccant means virtually no cross-contamination, as documented by independent testing.
- The Series–R has a demonstrated record of low failure rate and minimum maintenance requirements.
- Water does not condense on the exchanger’s hygroscopic surfaces, so no drain pan is required.
- Series–R can operate up to 150° F.
- The AIRotor team provides highly responsive service and support.
