Industrial air curtain
Optimal work climate
Industrial building doors are often open for long periods of time to facilitate transport
in and out of the building. However, open doors can result in a loss of heat to the
outside and the ingress of cold air. This disturbs the climate within the building,
which leads to draughts. Internal transport does not want to be hindered by closed
doors either, the internal doors between production halls and storage spaces for
instance, are open all day long. If there is a difference in temperatures between
these rooms, air will exchange. An air curtain provides for a climate separation that
substantially limits the natural air exchange of warm and cold air through the open
door. It is also an efficient solution in chill rooms. The air curtain is supplied without
a heating battery (ambient), so the climate in the chill room remains constantly low.
The open doors will contribute to safer and faster logistics and easy internal traffic.
As an added benefit, the climate separation between the chill room and adjoining
rooms will have a positive effect on energy usage. The Biddle industrial air curtain,
model IndAC, is highly suitable to handle these kinds of situations. Many years of
experience in combination with scientific research, forms the basis for the IndAC.
The IndAC makes the entrance accessible for transport and prevents cold air
entering the building. Free access, comfortable working conditions and less
absence due to illness are the results.
Energy saving solution
Doorways of industrial buildings are usually faced with direct wind attack, or suffer
from under-pressure, resulting in large air volumes being introduced into the working
area. In order to provide optimum screening, a unit capable of providing large air
volumes is required in most situations.
Therefore, Biddle has optimised the discharge pattern for industrial applications.
The air passes through the curved discharge section with minimal resistance. The
patented Double Rectifier ensures that turbulent air from the fans is bundled into a
laminar air stream, discharging in a straight vertical line to the floor. Additionally, the
homogeneous discharge pattern across the door provides optimum heating of cold
outside air, eliminating draughts in the building and preventing expensive energy
being lost to the outside.
The curved design of the discharge section also means that it is easily installed
close to the door, preventing air leakages. The result is a well screened doorway
with a minimum loss of heat.

During loading and unloading the door
remains open, without the indoor climate
being disturbed.
Model IndAC combines well with overhead
door systems.
