Over-door air curtains August 1st 2007 Over-door
Industrial over-door air
curtains from Airbloc are
providing an energy-saving
heating solution for British
Airways at its Premia special
handling cargo centre at
Heathrow Airport.
The special handling
building was designed and
built by Bowmer & Kirkland
to replace a 585 Premier
building, providing a more
automated environment and
increased flexibility. Airbloc
air curtains were fitted to all
loading bay doors – a total
of 15 Airbloc AB300, 400
and 500 industrial air
curtains – by Derry Building
Services. Mounted above the
doorways, the gas-heated air
curtains operate at full heat
when the doors are open,
but automatically drop to
low speed when the doors
are closed again. Heat
produced by the air curtains
is used to supplement the
main heating system within
the cargo building. More articles from Ambirad Ltd: |
