The word ventilation makes most people think about air conditioning or fans. Industrial Ventilation systems however are something completely different. Industrial ventilation isn’t designed for total climate control, but rather for reducing heat by improving airflow. This can include industrial fans or natural ventilators but it’s really about considering the entire facility as a complete
Industrial Energy Conservation in Buildings Since the explosion of energy use in the early 20th century, the demand for energy has been ever increasing. It wasn’t until the later part of the 20th century that people began to realize that some energy sources might be finite or exceedingly difficult to access. Thankfully there has been
Power plants, steel forges, paper mills, and aluminum manufacturing facilities all have one thing in common: an accident may just be a split second away. Fires, explosions, chemical leaks, and the like are all too common hazards in these industries. As workers are often in a location that is isolated or some distance from an
Since the discovery of electricity ventilation was never the same. Since then, the demand for energy has been ever increasing and more and more electricity using products have been invented. It wasn’t until the latter part of the 20th century that people began to realize that some energy sources might be finite or exceedingly difficult
All types of manufacturing processes use compressed air. In fact, every process and machine found in an industrial environment use some form of pressurized air or gas. Unfortunately, because it is so commonplace, people fail to recognize it as the potential hazard that it is. As little as 12 PSI can be deadly in the
If you’ve ever noticed that the attic in your house is warmer than the floors below? If so, then you’ve seen the stack ventilation in action. Stack effect ventilation uses this same principle to ventilate a building naturally. By taking advantage of the differences in air density inside, outside, and throughout the building a space
Fork trucks are used in every type of facility. From fan factories to steel mills to aluminum fabrication plants. We encounter many different types of these forklifts and fork trucks daily. From electric forklifts to reach trucks to counterbalance forklifts, they are so common. So common in fact that it is easy to become complacent
Carbon Monoxide is often called “the silent killer” because even though it is odorless, colorless, and tasteless it is still quite poisonous and very deadly. Hundreds of people die accidentally each year from carbon monoxide. The main causes of these poisonings are often poor building ventilation and improperly using fuel-burning appliances. As the weather gets
Production Specialist Neal Rainey explains why Savage IO chose Moffitt low-profile natural ventilators instead of exhaust fans for their data center ventilation. The resultant hybrid/pressure gravity system® made an enormous impact on this plant overnight. Watch this quick video to learn more about ventilating your data center from Moffitt. Data Center Ventilation In this testimonial,
Studies show that we work better in environments with plenty of sunlight and fresh air. While Natural Ventilation in the U.S. is still underutilized, buildings all over the world have seen its benefits in schools, offices, and industrial plants. Properly lit, properly ventilated spaces make everyone more efficient. That is why proper lighting and ventilation
