An air curtain is a device used for separating two spaces
from each other.
It usually happens at the exterior
entrance. The most common configuration for air curtains is a downward facing fan mounted over
an opening. Normally this opening is an entrance to a building and the air curtain is
intended to help keep outside air out and avoid cold draught by mixing in warm air from the
air curtain. The fan must be powerful enough to generate a jet that can reach the
floor.
Air curtains can be used
to save energy by reducing the energy transfer between two spaces, although a closed and well
sealed physical door is much more effective. Or a combination can be utilized; when the door is
opened air curtain turns on, minimizing air flow from inside to outside and vice versa. For
example:
Air Curtains are the perfect way to provide your
premises with a comfortable, clean and hygienic environment while saving energy.
These latest units represent a complete model
change and incorporate technical innovations like the compact ExtraFan and the powerful Twin
Nozzle that make them quieter, more efficient and more powerful.
Not only are they ideal in conventional
applications in offices and stores but they are also highly effective in circulatory and zoning
applications in a wide range of open spaces, such as gymnasiums, bowling alleys, halls and
lobbies.
