When you specify a fan filter unit for an enclosure do you also specify a normally open thermostat to control any fans also enclosed?
AxAir have a comprehensive fan filter unit collection
It is surprising how many engineers negate to include this effective component, simply because they are not aware of the benefits.
There can be many paybacks associated with fitting a thermostat alongside a filter unit. All of which are cost effective methods, which ultimately save money for the end user.
The most notable benefit being that the fan is only drawing power or running when the rise in the enclosure temperature calls for it. The result is that the end user saves energy, which extends the lifetime of the components consequently reducing the cost of replacements.
If you don’t use a thermostat then you are leaving the fan running 24 hours a day, seven days a week putting additional strain on the fan filter unit which may ultimately increase the cost of replacements.
As an added result of reducing the time that the fan is running, the media within a fan filter is not going to fill up so quickly. You’ll have less maintenance downtime and replacement filter material costs to worry about.
The choice to fit a thermostat alongside the cooling fan filter units in a control panel is an easy one to make. Save energy, save money, save time.
