AQX H: the new air handling units for applications with high hygiene standards

The air handling units of the AQX H series are designed to satisfy every type of design requirement in applications requiring high hygiene standards such as hospitals, the food industry, pharmaceuticals and microelectronics.

Easy cleaning and sanitisation

Both the technical and construction characteristics of the product make cleaning and sanitisation particularly easy:

  • Internal panels made of antibacterial material such as aluminium or stainless steel
  • No risk of microbial contamination from internal components
  • Smooth, disinfectant-resistant internal surfaces without recesses
  • Components accessible upstream and downstream through inspection doors easily removable
  • Porthole and lighting systems for fans, filters, cold coils and humidifiers
  • Plug fans without scrolls
  • Upstream and downstream condensate trays for inspection and cleaning

Air sanitisation

Available with multiple filter stages with minimum final filtration class ISO 16890 ePM1 85%. To ensure maximum indoor air quality and human health, AQX H air handling units can be equipped with UV-C lamps or photocatalytic oxidation modules.

They can be adapted to your space, and they are easy to install on site

The Clivet AQX H series is available in 32 standard sizes able to cover capacities from 1,500 to 100,000 m3/h (considering a speed of 2.5 m/s on the exchangers), but it is also designed to adapt to any architectural or design constraint. In this regard, the height and width can be varied as required in 50 mm increments, making a large number of combinations available to meet all requirements.

The modular structure makes it possible to create a fully customisable product. In the case of single-flow units, it is possible to have a completely in-line configuration or in-line configuration with partial vertical development; in the case of double-flow units the in-line, overlapping or side-by-side configurations are also available.

All sections are connected to each other through a coupling system that guarantees maximum precision and rapid assembly even on site.

Strength and lightness

The supporting structure of the AQX H series units consists of cold extruded aluminium profiles and sandwich panels to ensure maximum rigidity and lightness. The casing is designed to achieve high noise reduction and extremely low pressure/depression deformation.

Certifications

The units comply with the Ecodesign regulation 1253 and 1254. Mechanical and component performances are specified and classified according to EN 1886 and EN 13053.

The hygienic performance is certified by TÜV SÜD according to the requirements of DIN 1946-4, VDI 6022-1, VDI 3803-1 and ISO 846/2019.

Eurovent certifies Model Boxes PU60 and RW60 with the following performances:

  • Enclosure resistance D1
  • Enclosure losses L1
  • Bypass losses on filters F9
  • Casing thermal transmittance T2
  • Casing thermal bridge factor TB2
