 QUALITY AND CERTIFICATION
The quatlity control guarantee products of higher value.

Our target is the perfection.

Our competent and seasoned employees work continuous for this target.

The quality-standards are developed in normal production processes and

subjected permanental quality controlls.

The components of our apparatus are accurately proofed an selected.

This guaranteed reliable and durable construktion.

Our check program is prooved and certificated by TV at DIN EN ISO 9002.

This is one of a visual sing for our quality.

Since February 2002 our products are produced according the guideline of
97/23/EG and singed with the CE-sign.
GENERAL 2. Fans:
Two types of fan are available: axial fans, built
directly into the fan deck of the air cooler or axial
The 5SF range consists of 108 models available
fans with a galvanised housing. The fans have a

solution for all requirements.
Flat, corrosion protected fan guards are supplied
with the fans.

3. Drain tray:
The standard double skinned and insulated drain
tray (picture 2) consists of an aluminium inner tray
and a galvanised steel outer tray. This is foam filled
to a minimum thickness of 25 mm.
Sloping sides ensure complete moisture catch-
ment.

of 16 mm.
- Coils are available with a fin spacing of 5, 8, 10
or 12/8 mm. Fin thickness is 0.45 mm.
- The fins have flat collars, which prevent the
accumulation of dirt and bacteria, and allow
easy cleaning.
- Number of rows in height: 16, 20 or 24
- Number of rows in air direction: 4, 6 or 8

Advantages:

Because of the smaller pipe diameter of 16 mm the
refrigerant is reduced (rafflex 50% in in comparison

Coils are galvanised in our own galvanising plant.
A pressure test is carried out before and after
galvanising.

QUICK SELECTION
Basic Data Example
For the selection of an air cooler the following data Assumption:
are necessary:
- Fin spacing: 8 mm
- Duty: 80 kW
- Duty (kW)
- Refrigerant: NH3-pump
- Evaporating temperature
- Evaporating temperature: - 20 C
- Air temperature (tm or t1)
- tm: 7K
- Refrigerant
- Correction factor
Result: 80 / 0,62 = 129 kW

This results in the following alternatives:

* 5SF 1648 C * 5SF 2038 C * 5SF 2438 B

Coil Drain tray

Coil made out of galvanised steel with parallel
tubes 60 x 60 mm.
Fins have flat collars, which prevent the accumula-
tion of dirt and bacteria, and allow easy cleaning
Number of tubes high: 12, 16, 20 or 24
Number of rows deep: 4, 6 or 8
Fin thickness: 0.5 mm
Fin spacing: 5, 8, 10 or 12/8 mm
Galvanised in our own galvanising plant.
Casework
Casework is manufactured from galvanised sheet
steel, with white gloss stoved epoxy paint finish.
End panels are mounted on lift-off hinges and
feature stainless steel clips. End panels are easily
removed using the lifting handle located on the
inside. The door fixings are stainless steel bolt
action fasteners.
The inner skin of the double skinned and insulated
drain tray is aluminium and the outer is galvanised
steel. The drain tray is foam filled to a minimum
thickness of 25 mm.
Sloping sides ensure complete moisture catch-
ment.
Fans
All axial fans have plastic blades as standard. The
motors are 3 phase, protected to IP 55.
Defrost
Several defrost options are available:
- electric defrost
- hot gas defrost
- water defrost
For additional details see section 6.
