It is great to see the Ikon Park project completing through the redevelopment stages.
In 2018 and 2019, the Carlton Football Club was successful in securing State and Federal funding to upgrade the existing facilities at IKON Park to consolidate it as the home of Women’s football and the long-term base of the Carlton Football Club.
This significant redevelopment will allow the opportunity to support the increase in demand to service the Club’s combined football programs and the wider community, with opportunities available to inspire and develop the next generation of female sporting talent.
The Carlton Football Club worked closely with designers, planners and the City of Melbourne during the concept and design phase of the project, with a focus on utilising existing areas and improving connections between IKON Park and Princes Park.
Armcor worked collaboratively with the contractor – PJM Engineering Services Pty Ltd to provide the state-of-the-art equipment for the various stages of the IKON Park Redevelopment project as per the specifications & requirements of the project.
With Armcor’s use of impeccable design, engineering and manufacturing expertise the team provided business solutions with designing and manufacturing various XCM Units, XES units and XEP Units.
Armcor’s multiflow design thinking “XCM units” are compact, horizontal low-profile ceiling mount heat recovery unit designed for installation within a roof space. These units are suitable for any application where there is a requirement for fresh air. Various XCM units were supplied for the world class project.
Fresh & clean air is essential to everyone, especially for the indoor swimming pool area. For the Stage 2 of the redevelopment, Armcor supplied their XES4000P3 with a capacity of 4000l/sec and a compressor capacity of 80kw. Designed with the specific need to overcome condensation and the corrosive nature of the chlorine laden air, the XES unit includes EC Plug Fans, in-built filters and polypropylene plate heat exchange media. The unit configuration suits external rooftop or plant room applications.
For the Stage 3 of the redevelopment, Armcor provided its expert solution by manufacturing the XEP3000P3S and XEP2000P3S units both in the economy cycle. Both these unit’s configuration suited external rooftop or ground level applications and included energy-saving EC Plug Fans and were supplied with the option of sensible heat exchange media. The option of EC Plug Fans makes the units a star achiever in energy savings and controllability. Along with the XEP units, some XCM units were also slotted into the production line.
All the units were assembled and manufactured within the project requirements and delivery timeframes. At Armcor Air Solutions it is our passion & commitment to create reliable and economically happier, healthier environments at a price that reflects the engineering & efficiency of our systems.
