Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system helps in controlling the temperature, humidity and air quality to provide comfortable indoor environment to both employees and equipment in the buildings. Hence, HVAC system is critical for any kind of manufacturing process.
Manufacturing industry refers to those industries which involve in the manufacturing and processing of different kind of items and run various processes in either creation of new commodities and products or in value addition. The manufacturing industry accounts for a significant and bulk share of the industrial and commercial sector globally. The final products can either serve as a finished good for sale to customers or as intermediate goods used in the further production process till finalisation.
In a nutshell, most of the things which we consume are a product of manufacturing process arising out of various industrial applications.
In Which factories Air conditioning is needed:
The list of end-users is considered under the manufacturing industry:
- Chemical
- FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods)
- Petrochemical, automotive & ancillaries
- Aerospace
- Semiconductor
- Textile
- Pulp and paper
- Metal processing
- Wood processing
- Plastic
- Rubber manufacturers
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) is important in the design of medium to large industrial and office buildings. Conditions can be regulated within the manufacturing facility with respect to temperature and humidity by deploying an HVAC system for different manufacturing units.
An efficient HVAC system makes sure that specific temperature and RH conditions are maintained in such a manner that there is no spoilage, damage to the by-products and products of undergoing manufacturing process.
They help in controlling the temperature, humidity and air quality to provide comfortable indoor environment to both employees and equipment in the buildings. Heating is accomplished by heating the air within the building using radiators, while ventilation is achieved by maintaining clean air in the space and extracting polluted air out of the space. It also keeps internal air circulating and removes excessive moisture. Air-Conditioning lowers the temperature and maintains appropriate humidity levels.
Hence, HVAC system is critical for any kind of manufacturing process. All kind of manufacturing plants must have an HVAC system to increase the productivity. Given below are examples from FMCG & pharma industry.
Why air conditioning is needed for Factories?
Wide cooling range:
When installing air conditioners for factories, engineers should pay attention to the cooling system that must be suitable with the space of the factory without affecting the internal layout, even if there is a change in the machine or number of workers. With a wide range of space, machines and equipment, the factory need a powerful air conditioning system with a large capacity, high airflow, wide cooling range and stable operation.
Simple operation, easy maintenance:
Since factories require very strict working time. Even many factories and supermarkets operate 24/24 so the air-conditioning system must ensure simple operation and easy maintenance. In case of trouble, if the air conditioning system is difficult to repair, it will greatly affect the production process.
Ventilation systems:
Factories often have a large number of workers, machines and equipment. Therefore, the air conditioning system needs a ventilation system to ensure the discharge of hazardous substances. Besides, the system must also ensure air purification and provision of the necessary amount of oxygen for human activities. In addition, the air conditioning system also needs air exhausting system to ensure clean air.
Many factories and supermarkets often use Package type air conditioners with heat recovery ventilator. This is the best solution with main points: Low investment cost, large capacity of 50,000 – 200,000 BTU, connection with wind pipes to make wide areas cooler, and duration thanks to its high corrosion resistance. After carefully studying the structure of factories, MEC engineers can give advice on installation of HVAC systems to bring the best working environment. We ensure all necessary and suitable standards for every project.
