An Air Handling Unit, Also Known As an AHU

Edgetech is the top-notch choice when it comes to FCU and AHU manufacturers in India. One can find the highest-quality air handling solutions that meet any application you may have. An air handling unit, also known as an AHU, is made up of components mounted in sizable, easily accessible box-shaped units called modules. These modules contain the necessary ventilation components for cleaning, cooling, or replenishing the indoor air in a structure or location.

 

These are typically mounted on the roof of buildings, and air is circulated to all of the building's rooms by ducts. The AHU manages additional tasks besides ensuring that the inside is properly ventilated with outside air.

 

The indoor air will be filtered and controlled for quality, and depending on how long the air purification filters are retained, the air will be clean. In order to get the appropriate thermal sensation inside, the air temperature is controlled to regulate the air conditioning system in cold or hot conditions. Monitoring relative humidity to improve indoor comfort. The AHU, on the other hand, is designed for spaces like hotel dining rooms, function rooms, restaurants, and conference centres that have restricted natural ventilation due to their high volume of simultaneous visitors. It is also a good solution for locations with strict hygiene regulations, like clean rooms, operating rooms, and laboratories. AHUs can also be utilised to ventilate spaces that, for instance, have underfloor heating or radiators for air conditioning. Energy efficiency is the primary goal of an air handling unit, and the European Ecodesign Regulation 1235/2014 has made it required since 2016.

 

By having heat recovery units, the AHU lowers the amount of energy needed for air conditioning since the exchanger mixes internal and outdoor air, lowering the temperature contrast when the air enters the coil and lowering both the climatic contribution and energy consumption.

 

The fans can operate in accordance with the required flow rate thanks to the equipment's variable regulation, which lowers consumption. The brain of central air conditioning is the air handling unit (AHU). It draws in both outdoor and indoor air, filters out dust and other debris, modifies the temperature and humidity, and then pumps cool, comfortable air into the rooms through ducts. Air handling units and fan coils are used in central air conditioning systems to provide cooling and heating. Heat source equipment (such as a refrigerator, boiler, etc.) is also used. Central air conditioning is also known as centralised air conditioning since all heat source devices are put at one location in the building and chilled or heated water is supplied to the air conditioning units for the cooling or heating of the rooms. In large buildings and facilities, central air conditioning systems are constructed and often used.
