Skawen develops project-specific air handling units for facilities where humidity, chemicals, saline air or process conditions place unusual demands on equipment materials and configuration.
Solution: Industrial & Corrosive Environments
Air Handling for Industrial and Corrosive Environments
The Operating Environment Defines the Equipment
Challenge
Industrial air may contain moisture, salts, chemicals, process contaminants or temperature conditions that accelerate corrosion and affect conventional components.
The initial assessment should consider:
- Contaminants, concentration, temperature and humidity
- Required airflow and pressure, indoor or outdoor installation
- Filtration, separation and exhaust-air properties
- Heat-recovery feasibility and contamination risk
- Material compatibility and cleaning requirements
Composite Construction for Demanding Conditions
Casing platform
Skawen’s composite casing combines corrosion resistance, low weight, modularity and reduced thermal bridging, providing a flexible platform for selecting components and materials according to the operating environment. Material compatibility is always evaluated against the actual contaminants, concentrations and temperatures of the project.
