Fantech Air Screen Keeps the Inside In and the Outside Out
Open doors and entryways create drafts, increase energy costs and introduce
pollutants. Installing a Fantech Air Screen over the opening adds a "barrier" in
the opening. Heated units improve the comfort by adding heat and drying up the
entrance area. The additional heat also serves as buffer on very cold days.
Under optimum conditions, the Fantech Air Screen can reduce heat loss by up to
80%, efficiently maintaining a comfortable air temperature and shielding against
insects, dust and other contaminants
Why Fantech Air Screen Makes a Great
Entrance
- Fantech Air Screens are quiet enough not to
disturb occupants, allowing efficient continuous operation in all
installations.
- The seasons in which doors can be left open
are extended with air screens. Customers are attracted to shops with open
doors.
- Heated units give a feeling of welcoming
warmth as the customer enters the space, plus the entrance remains dry.
- The reduction in drafts through the openings
increases the energy efficiency of the building.
- The air velocity is optimized to provide an
effective barrier against insects, pollen and dust, while not disturbing
occupants.
- Fantech Air Screens are elegantly styled and
installation is simple.
- Superior German motor technology ensures
reliable operation and long life span.
AS 4000 and AS 6000 Series...
Quiet comfort for full-height doorways
Fantech Air Screens are mounted internally over
entrances to reduce draft and heat loss while creating a barrier against dust,
insects and pollution. A thin "screen" of air is pushed along the opening by
fans built into the unit. Heating elements increase the temperature of the air
stream. Unheated models are available for air conditioned climates. The Air
Screens can be controlled manually or wired to thermostats and/or door switches
for automated operation.

Air Speed/Distance
The diagram to the right shows the
air speed for the AS 4000 and AS 6000 measured at different distances from
the center of the outlet gap.

Construction
A cross-flow fan and optional heating elements
are mounted in a compact, durable frame made of powder-coated sheet metal.
Fantech's European design and technology provide the optimum combination of low
noise level, airflow with minimal turbulence and a constant indoor air
temperature.
Safety Equipment
Thermal protection is placed in the airflow on
the outlet side.An easily accessible reset button is located behind the front
panel.
Mounting
The Fantech Air Screen is designed for
horizontal, fixed installation. The low height of the appliance and the front
inlet allow mounting close to the ceiling. This saves space and allows the air
screen to be used in places where there is minimal room between the door and the
ceiling. Air screens can be flush-mounted in the lower ceiling or suspended by
wires or threaded rods.
Operation
Fan speed and heat have high and low settings
and are regulated from a built-in control. For your convenience, the control
panel can be removed from the unit and installed remotely. If installed, the
optional door switch shall be wired for the fan to go from low to high speed
when the door is opened. When installed in small spaces an optional two-stage
thermostat is recommended.
