4. UNIT DESCRIPTION
The new air handling units structure presents a new softer and ergonomic line made of aluminium profi les with both externally and internally rounded edges. It is so possible to avoid internal dust heaps, typical of the sharp edges, with better quality and healthier treated air making also easier the unit cleaning.The FM series includes the following characteristics:- self supporting structure with aluminium framework and fiberglass reinforced nylon;
- unified panels with real thickness of 50 mm, manufactured with the most qualified materials (galvanized sheets, galvanized prepainted sheets, aluminium alloy, stainless steel) and injected poliurethane and rockwool for the insulation panel;- innovat ive systems for a i r humidifi cation with particular care of the air salubrity, to avoid developing of moulds and bacteria, and paying attention to the waste of water;
- all the components are inside the casing and therefore the treated airflow is completely separated from the external weather conditions that could penalize functions and performances of the air handling units;- a wide range of accessories and executions are provided to give to the custom an immediate view and check of all operating conditions of the air handling units.

FRAME
The frame is built of UNI 6060 aluminium alloy profiles connec-ted by fibreglass reinforced with nylon corner pieces; the fastening corners are made of extruded alu-minum and fastening is granted by metric screws M6 with hexagon head cap.These profiles are completely closed and therefore the thermal bridges are reduced at a mini-mum as the air by-passes along the internal components. For heavy operating conditions the frame can be supplied also with thermal cut.
The overall length of the housing is calculated modularly.
1 unit = 640 mm
The frame is also available in ano-dized aluminum UNI 6060 with or without thermal break.
BASE
The base is constant for all sizes and is made of galvanized sheet steel (or other materials on re-quest).
ROOF
If the air handling unit is located outside, it is absolutely necessary to select a protection roof. If re-quired it is carried out as standard pre-painted galvanized sheet me-tal with the same characteristi-cs used for the panels. Different types of material could be reque-sted.

Confi gurations for three-way mixing boxes are as follows:• two upper dampers and one internal recirculation damper;• two front dampers and a horizon-tal internal recirculation damper (for overlapping units);• two internal side dampers and one internal recirculation damper (confi -guration for exhaust and fresh air in-takes without pipes).
AIR INLETS
The dampers are fully in aluminium with aerofoil blade. On request dam-pers can be supplied with sealing ga-skets on both the edge of the blade and the side panels of the frame. In the fi rst execution the leakage is less than 5% at a differential pressure of 1000 Pa; in the second execution the leakage is less than 1%.
When the dampers are external to the casing, they are fi xed to the framework of the AHU. When the dampers are internal to the casing, they are fi xed to the panel.

ROLL FILTERS
The roll fi lters are used as an al-ternative to the cell fi lters to avoid periodic maintenance of the fi lters. Their effi ciency is similar to the syn-thetic cell fi lters.However they have the big advan-tage to renew itself automatically according to the signal (differential pressure switch) which arrange for the rolling up of the dirty part oand placing the clean part in the airfl ow.

The fi lter life, that can’t be reclaimed, strictly depends on the quantity of powder in the air, but guarantees anyway long maintenance intervals with alarm signal which can be sent also to a remote control panel.
The roll fi lter is supplied complete with electric switchboard.

ABSOLUTE FILTERS
The absolute fi lters are generally used to guarantee aseptic air condi-tions and air salubrity.The most common applications are related to AHUs for hospitals (ope-rating theatre and similar), for elec-tronic and chemical industry.
These fi lters must be placed after the supply fan sections and must be preceded by higher effi ciency fi lters (i.e. cell fi lters and soft bag fi lters). It is advisable to provide, as accessory, a differential pressure switch that indicates the fi lter fouling in order to plan its substitution.Particular care is given to the design of the seating de-vices for the cells to avoid air by-pass and to make the maintenance easier.

ELECTROSTATIC FILTERS
The electrostatic fi lters are used when elevate fi ltrating performan-ces are requested, even on very small particles, together with limi-ted pressure drops.The system uses polarised electro-des, positively loaded and fed with
roughly 10.000V tension and me-tallic plates loaded in the opposi-te way. The creation of an intense electrostatic fi eld generates positi-ve ions which capture the polluting particles present in the air.The advantages deriving from the use of electrostatic fi lters are the
The sections are complete with lam-ps, wiring and terminal box for the connection to electric current.
GERMICIDAL LAMPS
They are generally used in series with very high effi ciency fi lters and their use is advisable when bacte-ria and germs, always present in the air, must be controlled on the sup-ply and exhaust air.
The lamps, their power and location have been defi ned by our technical offi ce for most common applica-tions; particular solutions can be studied for special purposes.
OUR TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT CAN VERIFY FURTHER FILTRATION SYSTEMS NOT LISTED ABOVE.
ACTIVATED CARBON FILTERS
The activated carbon fi lters are used for the absorption of odours and toxic substances from the ai-rfl ow both on supply and exhaust air (i.e. human odours, odours from kitchens, some components of smo-ke, idrocarbon vapours diluted in the air etc.).
These fi ltering systems must be be pre-ceded by higher effi ciency fi lters to improve their life and assure the best effi ciency.The sections are perfectly accessible for the maintenance and can be use rechargeble or disposable cells.

AIR WASHER
The system is made up by two opposi-te ramps, on which nebulizing nozzles are placed, included in a waterproof aluminium alloy (standard) or stain-less steel chamber internal to the ca-sing of the air-handling unit. The sy-stem is complete with connections and pump/s and main pan (400 mm high) with drain hole, overfl ow hole, fi lter, fl oating valve, drop eliminators before and after the ramps. It is possible also to provide a model with 2 nozzle ramps and one recirculation pump, or 2 noz-zle ramps and 2 recirculation pumps.
WATER/AIR COMPRESSED AIR HUMIDI-FICATION
The system is made up of special ato-mised nozzles, fed with compressed water and air in separate lines. An accurate installation and the respect of the minimum distances with the following components in the air fl ow allow for a nebulization of the water in extremely small droplets, thus avoi-ding the risk of condensation. In this way very elevate effi ciencies are ob-tained and, thanks to the automatic cleaning of the nebulizing heads, are low maintenance costs.The system is supplied complete with all necessary components mounted for the correct operation (ramp, self-clea-ning nozzles, pipes and feeding cabinet with modulating control).
ULTRASOUND HUMIDIFICATION
The humidifi cation system with ultra-sounds provides for the use of a high-frequency piezoelectric transducer which, vibrating at extremely high frequency generates the cavitation of the water with its subsequent nebu-lization. The main advantages of this system are: high effi ciency, low ener-getic consumption, reduced water con-sumption, long duration, installation easiness and safety of usage.For further information please contact our Technical Department.
The humidifi cation is a very important tre-atment to obtain an optimum indoor air quality. The humidifi yng system described below shall be selected in conformity to their use and to the available fl uid.It is obvious that the fact that moulds and bacteria fi nd a favourable ambient on hu-mid surfaces and in stagnant water must be taken in account: therefore FAST pro-vides drainable pans and small pump traps to limit the quantity of water in the sy-stem.The evaporating decks are of the anti-mould type and can be also equipped with humidity sensor to stop the waterfl ow as soon as the evaporating deck is wet, limi-ting the water consumption and maintai-ning the drain pan almost dry.The steam system with centralized steam production are particularly indicated for small fl ows and for applications where the air healthiness is very important (i.e. ho-spitals).
EVAPORATING DECK HUMIDIFICATION
The following constructive types may be provided for:
a - paper evaporating deck thick 100 mm and water;b - paper evaporating deck thick 200 mm and water;c - paper evaporating deck thick 100 mm and recirculating pump;d - paper evaporating deck thick 200 mm and recirculating pump;e - PVC evaporating deck thick 100 mm and recirculating pump;f - PVC evaporating deck thick 200 mm and recirculating pump;g - paper evaporating deck thick 100 mm and water control through humidity sensor at evaporating deck and solenoid valve;h - paper evaporating deck thick 200 mm and water control through humidity sensor at evaporating deck and solenoid valve;

20 å æSelection, installation, use and maintenance manual
-Sizes:fan sizes are selected according to the required capacity and pressure. The si-zes are shown in the following table for each size of air handling unit, with re-ference to the outside diameter of the wheel in mm.
-Orientation:available fan orientations are shown in the following table. An even fi nal number means right orien-tation; an odd fi nal number refers to left orientation.The choice of the orientation depends on the real plant confi guration of the AHU and shall consider more than the inspection side of the AHU also the la-yout of the supply ducts to minimize the pressure drop at the AHU-duct junction.
FANS
The fans are the most important compo-nents in the air handling units since the fan-motor assembly is the only moving part and therefore subject to possible problems of wear, noise, manitenance, safety. A correct selection for size and models together with a careful selection of the supplier assures an optimum per-formance for the AHU’s life.FAST provides for each size of AHU dif-ferent fan sizes and models to better match the plant requirements in terms of effi ciency, noise level and operating fl exibility.
- Series:all fan units are in complieance with se-ries DIN 323 R20 (square outlet) of the following types:- forward curved blades;- backward curved blades;- backward curved blades with air foil profi le.

WARNINGS AND SAFETY REGULATIONS
18. INSTALLATION
The following regulations when in-stalling, starting up, using and ser-vicing the air handling units must be taken into account:
When lifting, bear in mind that the centre of gravity of the unit may be off-centre.
Make sure that ropes and hooks are correctly fi xed.
Make sure that the unit and all its electric parts have been correctly earthed prior to starting up the unit.
Make sure that the fan opening vent has been connected to ducting or is covered by a protective grille prior to starting up the unit.
Never use the unit to support other equipment.
STOCKING AT SITE
The air handling units without roof must be stocked inside the building.The supply/exhaust openings must be pro-tected to avoid materials, powder or lit-tle animals entering the sections, and the dampers must be closed (and sealed with nylon fi lms if stocked outside the building)until the air handling units are connected to the ducts of the plant.The air handling units supplied in more sections shall be placed near to the other to avoid entering of external materials.
Do not use the station as a walkway or scaffold; if it is necessary to climb on the roof of the air handling unit it is required:1) to use all PPE necessary to avert the dangers encountered during the analy-sis phase of the residual risks;2) to prepare a proper weight distri-bution to prevent the breakthrough of the sheet metal roof (by leaning remo-vable supporting beams on very large surfaces).
Never stack tools, spare parts, etc. on top of the unit.
Before opening the unit, make sure that all electrical parts have been switched off. In particular, make sure that the fan is off and cannot be star-ted prior to opening inspection doors.
Do not open inspection panels when the fan is operating (especially sec-tions under pressure of the unit).
Always fi t the protective carter over the fan section before starting up the unit.
Make sure that all panels and hatches are properly closed.
Beware of sharp edges inside the unit.
Beware of roof corners of the outdoor units.
Beware of the heat exchange coils: dan-ger of burning.
Beware of the potential danger of burning deriving from steam humidifi ers.
Beware of the self-controlled dampers, which could close suddenly.
- And 'well, after installation, remove all traces of protective material applied to the surface of the side panels and top of the unit.
- Pay attention to the holes left open after removal of the lifting lugs of the unit: you must close them with the bolts and screws used for the mounting lugs and seal them with sealant silicone to prevent water in-fi ltration.

Warning! The fastening must always be done using the holes marked with the yellow/back label.
When lifting the AHU please use a calibra or put a bar between the cables to eliminate the horizontal component of the force which could damage the roof of the AHU.During lifting be careful not to da-mage the outcoming parts like dam-pers, manifolds, drains and handles.
HANDLING AND POSITIONING
The air handling units FM series are built for the litfi ng from the bottom. The cor-ners feet and the base, when supplied, are equipped with holes for the lifting to be used as follows:sections with corner sockets only: the lif-ting can be done with hooks to anchor in the holes shown in the underlying fi gure B or ropes to be anchored to two 2" pipes passing from one side of the section to the other through the hole B;sections with continuous base: the han-dling can be done with ropes anchored to two 2 "pipes passing from one side of the section out through the hole A.
MINIMUM TECHNICAL CLEARANCES
In the positioning of the AHU it is impor-tant to provide the necessary space for the ordinary and extra ordinary mainte-nance.The best solution can be achived lea-
The positioning may be done using two transpallets, one for each section side, operating at the longer sides.Alternatively the positioning can be done by moving the ahu sections on pipes as they were rolls. The sections without continous base can be slided directly on the fl oor.
The fan-motor assembly are fi xed on antivibration supports; it is advisable, anyway, to place between baseframe and technical fl oor an antivibration mat.

WARNING:If the roof covering is present, special attention should be paid to the union of the same to avoid water infiltration.
In the presence of the drain panel is ensured by special fastening L-brackets with the screws already provided with the equipment: these must be applied on the upper horizontal and vertical profiles (A). For design reasons, in some cases an inner surface cannot be guaranteed, so that the space between two or more sections can become a point of accumulation of dirt, for this reason has been arranged for a cover to be later mounted on the sections of the union.In this case, the fastening of the sections will be secured by special brackets applied on vertical profiles and horizontal screws properly crafted (B).

The initial section of the supply air duct should be 2.5 times lon-ger than the shorter side of the duct before curves, branching or obstructions as dampers to avoid potential pressure drops. Divergent sections should be incli-ned more than 7°.The fan should be oriented accor-ding to the first curve, as shown in the figure below.
HYDRAULIC CONNECTION
a) Connection of the water coils
- Heat exchange coils have manifolds with threaded terminals. In the event that flan-ged connectors are required, threaded flanges are used to allow the coil removal.As result the manifolds leak from side panels of the AHU.
- Cooling coils are mounted in the conden-sate collection trays; the drainage of trays (1" G) should have an adequate siphon attachment.
- The tubes should be arranged in such a way as to allow the removal of the coil and opening of the inspection doors.
- Water inlets and outlets should be arranged in such a way as to ensure the counter-flow heat exchange. Follow the
Correct position
Wrong positionSUPPLY/EXHAUST OPENING VENTS
information given on the WATER INLET and WATER OUTLET plates. Generally, coils with r.h. connectors are supplied from below, while those with left connectors are supplied from above.
- Fit a air relief above and a dischar-ge valve below.
- Properly support tubes on unit by brackets to relieve the coil of exces-sive weight.
- Once connections have been made, push the external rubber seal against the panel to prevent air leakage and condensate formation.
- Panels should be insulated thoroughly over the entire surface to prevent the risk of burnings and condensate forma-tion.
- Install a tube side coil shut-off device for when the fan is not operating to pre-vent overheating inside the unit and con-sequent damage of some components.
- Install antifreeze devices with outdoor air vents.
- Install shut-off valves to isolate the coil from the rest of the circuit in the event of special maintenance.

EARTHING
All electrical utilities must be connec-ted to earth.All unit sections must be connected to earth.For this purpose all unit sections have an M8 screw for connection to the plant earth. The screw is identified by a pla-te, and is positioned in the vicinity of one if the section base supports, as in-dicated by in the figure below.
knobs. Depending on the size of the unit, it may be necessary to remove the anti-splash net over the fan gril-le. Remove the threaded bars from the fan partition.
Roll filters: usually supplied already assembled. To disassemble and re-assemble the filters, please refer to the supplied manufacturer's instruc-tions.
Activated carbon filters: cartrid-ges are usually supplied assembled. To fit the cartridge, slide it into its seat, then rotate in a clockwise di-rection by approx. 5°.
INSTALLATION OF FILTER CELLS
-Plane filter cells (synthetic or metal) on guides: usually supplied already installed. If not installed, cells must be slided on to the guides. Make sure that the cells are correctly clipped to one another to facilitate removal for maintenance.
-Plane filter cells (synthetic or metal) on frame, bag filters, rigid bag filters: usually supplied in boxes placed insi-de the unit. They must be frontally slided on to the frame, and fixed with the supplied clips (see figure A).
-Absolute filters: they are always sup-plied inside the unit. They must be frontally slided on to the frames, and fixed with supplied brackets and

f- direction of rotation: the fan impeller should rotate in the direction indicated by the arrow on the fan screw; if the di-rection is incorrect, invert two phases on the motor terminal block.
g- electrical absorption: set the heat pro-tections on the panel to the absorption va-lues given on the motor plate, then use an ammeter to check that current does not ex-ceed it. If electrical absorption is too high, the load loss of the air distribution system has probably been overestimated. In this case, apply additional resistance by adju-sting the damper, or preferably reduce fan rotation speed by replacing the transmis-sion. To adjust speed in air handling units fi tted with variable pitch pulleys, vary the pitch on the pulley (see B in the above fi gu-re). This problem is normally encountered in fans with forward curved blades.
Measure length T;
with the aid of a dynamometer, apply a perpendicular force F capable of making a deflection of 1.5 mm for each 100 mm of T to a belt halfway along T;compare the value of F on the dynamo-meter with the F' and F" values given in the table below.If F < F', tighten the belt.If F > F", slacken the belt.Belt tension rapidly diminishes during run in periods; for this reason, new belts should be tensioned to a force F value 1.3 times greater than the F" value given in the table.
To adjust belt tension, shift the screws on the motor slide A.
Special guards are sometimes fi tted over fragile parts during transport. Always re-move them prior to using the air han-dling unit.
Main checks when starting-up the unit:
FANS
a- check that screws are tight on fan group
b- check tightening of pulleys on taper bushes
c- check pulley alignment
d- check free rotation of fans and motore- check belt tension; check tension after a few hours of operation, following the procedure described below.
