Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an upper air flow module for industrial climate control machines which are provided with a function for cooling by introducing external air.
  • a generic industrial climate control machine with a function for cooling by introducing external air known as a 'free cooling' function, comprises a cabinet inside which there are heat exchange means, proximate to which there are one or more fans adapted to aspirate air
  • the fans are placed below the heat exchange means, and the heat exchange means extend, and are arranged, diagonally upward from below within the cabinet.
  • a 'plenum space' i.e. a box-like body mounted on top of the cabinet and open toward the inside thereof.
  • the intake of air from the internal environment can occur from the plenum space or from the front of the cabinet.
  • the upper plenum space can have two motorized shutters, one for the inflow of external air and one for the inflow of internal air.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide an upper air flow module for industrial climate control machines which are provided with a function for cooling by introducing external air, which is capable of overcoming the above-mentioned limitations of the known art.
  • an object of the invention is to provide an upper module that is easily adaptable to a plurality of different types of climate control machines.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide an upper module which can be installed in the configuration for use at the last moment before mounting on the climate control machine with which it is intended to be used.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide an upper module the portions of which are easily removable and mountable on site with conventional tools.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide an upper air flow module for industrial climate control machines which are provided with a function for cooling by introducing external air, which can be produced using known systems and technologies.
  • an upper air flow module for industrial climate control machines which are provided with a function for cooling by introducing external air
  • said climate control machines comprising a cabinet which contains internally heat exchange means, and fans below said cabinet which are adapted to propel air into the space below a raised floor
  • said upper module being characterized in that it comprises a boxlike framework which has a lower opening for the passage of air toward an underlying cabinet, two opposite lateral air intakes and an upper air intake, said lateral air intakes and said upper air intake having the same size and being preset so that each one can be provided with one of the three following components:
  • an upper air flow module for industrial climate control machines which are provided with a function for cooling by introducing external air, according to the invention, is generally designated with the reference numeral 10.
  • a generic climate control machine is designated with 11 and comprises a cabinet 12 which contains internally heat exchange means, not shown for the sake of simplicity and understood to be conventional, and fans 13 below the cabinet 12, shown in dotted lines in Figure 1 , which are adapted to propel air into the space below a raised floor 14.
  • the upper module 10 comprises a boxlike framework 15 which has a lower opening 16, clearly visible in Figure 3 , for the flow of air toward the underlying cabinet 12.
  • the boxlike framework 15 also has two opposite openings, a front one and a rear one, 17 and 18, and an upper opening 19, such three openings 17, 18 and 19 being adapted for the intake of air.
  • the lateral air intakes 17 and 18 and the upper air intake 19 have the same size and are each adapted to be provided with one of the three following components:
  • the upper module 10 is completed by two lateral closing panels 23 and 24, which can be removed for inspection, and by a grille-like panel 25 which is to be arranged outside the shutter 20 or 21 and is preselected for aspirating internal air.
  • Figure 4 shows an example of using a screw 26 to fix the shutter 20 to the framework 15.
  • the shutters 20 and 21 are each managed by way of a self-contained servo-controlled motor 27 and 28 respectively, shown in Figure 3 .
  • a front side F and a rear side P of the climate control machine 11 are distinguished.
  • the module 10 is arranged to aspirate internal air AI from the front side F, where the shutter 21 is also provided with the grille-like panel 25, while the external air AE is passed from the second shutter 20 arranged on the rear side of the module 10.
  • the shutter 20 for external air AE is arranged at the upper intake 19.
  • an upper module is provided which is easily adaptable to a plurality of different types of climate control machines.
  • an upper module is provided which can be installed in the configuration for use at the last moment before mounting on the climate control machine with which it is intended to be used.
  • an upper module is provided the portions of which, i.e. shutters and panels, are easily removable and mountable on site with conventional tools.
  • an upper air flow module for industrial climate control machines which are provided with a function for cooling by introducing external air is provided which can be produced using known systems and technologies.
