Armcor Air Solutions collaborated with the mechanical contractor to provide the most energy efficient fresh air, Australian made solution for CSIRO Energy Gas Labs, NSW. Armcor used its design, engineering, and manufacturing expertise for providing their Air Handling Unit (AHU) which is used to condition and circulate air as part of a heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system.
The AHU2000P3 and AHU3000P3 units were selected ranging from 2000 l/sec to 3000 l/sec capacity. The design included hot water and chilled water coils, EC Plug fans and stainless-steel drain trays. These unit designs suit rooftop or plant room applications. They are fully factory assembled and internally wired, and fitted with large access doors allowing for service, cleaning, and maintenance.
Owing to the specific requirement, the units were supplied and delivered split. Armcor Air Solutions accomplished the project specific needs of manufacturing and delivery by imparting a hassle-free project within the set timelines.
