Enhancing Ventilation With Innovative Products
Air stratification is a common problem for ventilation systems during the winter months. If your ventilation system has been struggling with inconsistent coil loading, or, freeze stat trips you may be considering a Channel Blender as a solution. The Channel Blender from Blender Products, Inc. is an energy-efficient mixing solution that can provide building operators the flexibility they need to maintain healthy ventilation rates in several operating conditions. Here are four things you need to know before you purchase a Channel Blender from Blender Products.
Save Money With Expanded Economizer Operating Range
Instead of relying solely on your HVAC system’s heating coil to prevent frozen components, the Channel Blender allows your economizer to operate at an extended temperature range by mixing cold outside air with warm return air. Economizing with the Channel Blender allows your facility to operate at a much lower cost than relying on heating coils to condition air in the winter months.
Low Pressure Drop
Before adopting a Channel Blender, many of our customers shared concerns about increased pressure drop in their ventilation system. With the Channel Blender, the pressure drop is minimal. Typical applications fall between just 0.3” and 0.5” w.c.. This means that the pressure drop experienced with a Channel Blender is only slightly larger than a typical control damper.
Minimal Energy Requirements
One of the most beneficial aspects of a Channel Blender is the simplicity of its design and the extremely low energy requirements needed for operation. This is especially true when you consider the amount of energy required to pre-heat outside air. Rather than relying extensively on an energy-sapping heating coil, a Channel Blender allows your ventilation system to produce consistent, even-temperature airflow at a fraction of the energy cost. This airflow uniformity also means fewer cold or hot spots and less time spent blasting your heater to try to compensate.
Decades of Mixer Engineering at Work
The Channel Blender is the result of decades of HVAC mixing technology experience at Blender Products, Inc. We’ve developed this highly useful technology to lessen your impact on the environment, improve building occupant health and comfort, and enhance industrial process performance across the board. There is a smarter way to make your building a more comfortable place for yourself and your building’s occupants — with energy and money-saving products like the Channel Blender.
