Food & Beverage

The processes involved in Food & Beverage applications are those typically relating to food systems (food processing, wine transformation, etc.). Within this context, the air handling units have certain specific requirements calling for dedicated models.

How is the air treated?

The main aspects of this type of application include:

the air quality which is vital for guaranteeing the hygiene conditions of the whole process
the system and equipment used must not constitute a source of bacterial contamination; therefore, the assurance must be given to effective maintenance and cleaning
the system and equipment used must be able to work in the relative process temperatures, limiting the condensation phenomena that are detrimental to hygiene
continuity of service based on redundant technical solutions and the overall reliability of the air handling units
continuous control of the hygrothermometric parameters , maintaining optimum conditions for the processes and thereby guaranteeing the good quality of the end product

Fast specialised support

The FAST specialised support in the context of Food & Beverage plants takes the form of units, designed in agreement with the designer, with the following main measures dedicated to the application:

flat internal surfaces, as free as possible of sharp corners so as to facilitate the cleaning, sanitisation and sterilisation of the parts
internal materials resistant to the various treatments, without the formation of corrosion
casing with very low air leakage to guarantee the hygiene of the air flows
wide choice of filtering systems, including active sanification systems or with UVC lamps. For HEPA filters, we can provide “DOP Test” certification of the sealing system present in the air handling units
availability of efficient driven dehumidification systems (e.g. with a twin rotor and an adsorbent wheel regeneration system) or humidification systems
efficient washing liquid discharge and drainage systems
Plug & Play solutions with an electrical and regulation panel assembled and wired on the machine, to minimise the on-site work that could jeopardise the hygiene characteristics of the units

Air treatment, exchange and dehumidification

Fastaer air treatment systems improve comfort and increase energy savings by keeping the air always healthy, oxygen-rich filtered from the outside and dehumidified.
They improve air quality, hygiene and comfort.
