The unbeatable team

Modular system solution for maximum air handling capacity

Advantages of Z Awall:

• Low space requirements: Several small fans

take less mounting space
• Reduction of the sound power level in the
low-frequency range
• Improved reliabilit y thanks to redundancy:
The failure of a single fan does not lead to
a complete system failure
• Energy- saving through optimum selection of
fans with the highest ef f iciency
• Increased f lexibilit y: The number and size of
the fans can be ideally selected based on the
installation conditions
• Improved f low distribution: The result is an
improved heat transmission and f ilter utilisation
in the central air handling unit
