Heavy-Duty Air Curtain

The Heavy-Duty Air Curtain is an industrial-grade solution engineered for demanding environments where maintaining a strong, consistent air barrier is critical. Designed for large industrial doorways, warehouses, and loading bays, it delivers powerful airflow that effectively separates indoor and outdoor environments without the need for physical doors.

Key Applications

This air curtain is purpose-built for high-traffic industrial settings where open doorways are a necessity. Typical applications include:

• Warehouses and distribution centres with frequent forklift and vehicle access
• Loading bays and dock doors subject to continuous opening cycles
• Large industrial doorways up to 6 metres in height
• Manufacturing facilities requiring separation of production zones
• Cold storage entrances where temperature integrity must be maintained

Technical Highlights

High-Velocity Axial Fan: At the core of this unit is a robust axial fan capable of generating air velocities between 8 and 15 m/s. This ensures a powerful, uninterrupted air barrier across the full width of the doorway, even in challenging outdoor-facing environments.

Wide Coverage Range: Available in widths from 1000 mm to 3000 mm, the unit can be configured or combined to cover virtually any industrial doorway width. It is rated for doorways up to 6 metres in height.

Industrial Power Supply: Operates on a 380V / 3-phase / 50Hz power supply, making it fully compatible with standard industrial electrical infrastructure.

IP54 Weatherproof Rating: The IP54 protection rating ensures reliable operation in dusty, humid, and splash-prone environments typical of industrial and logistics settings.

Flexible Mounting Options: Supports both ceiling mount and above-door mount configurations, allowing straightforward integration into existing building structures without major modifications.

Benefits

Installing a heavy-duty air curtain delivers measurable operational and environmental advantages:

• Energy savings: Significantly reduces heating and cooling losses through open doorways, lowering energy consumption and operational costs.
• Pest and insect barrier: The continuous high-velocity airflow deters flying insects and pests from entering the facility.
• Dust and particulate control: Prevents the ingress of dust, fumes, and airborne contaminants, helping maintain cleaner working conditions.
• Temperature zone separation: Maintains distinct temperature zones on either side of the doorway, critical for cold storage, food processing, and climate-controlled manufacturing.
• Unobstructed access: Allows forklifts, vehicles, and personnel to pass freely without the delays associated with physical doors, improving throughput and operational efficiency.
