 1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Double Skin Modular Air Handling Unit is designed based on modular paneling concept to fulfill the
indoor air quality requirement. The air flow of DM AHU is within range of 330 to 20,000 lps (700 to 42379
CFM) and up to a total static pressure of 1991 pa (8” W.G). For special design, the air flow can be reached
25,000 lps (52974 CFM).

The AHU is constructed of high strength extruded Aluminium to form rigid frame. Beside, it is with
thermal barrier feature which using three leg-fiber plastic corner pieces, 25 or 50 mm Polyurethane (PU)
insulation panel and all frames are insulated with 3.0 mm PE foam to minimize energy heat loss and
prevent condensation occurring. The external clip method to hold the double skin PU insulation panel is
easily accessible for maintenance while being air tight. The new thermal- break profile can perform better
than the original profile in terms of providing better insulation and energy saving.

There is selection software programme available: DM AHU, to optimize the best arrangement and
performance for either chilled water system or DX system. Standard components can be selected and
be placed according to customer requirement. Once the unit is defined, optional item and accessories
are identified. The programme gives immediate feedback if there is no suitable choice for the units. The
programme provides us with fan curves data, coil performance data, dimension, and shipment weight.

McQuay can produce high quality, flexibility air handling unit which can provide excellent thermal
efficiencies and to be airtight. Besides, air handling unit produced is with flexibility features to meet the
indoor air quality, operating efficiency, sound level and installation requirement for today’s extensive
commercial and custom markets. A comfortable environment can enhance human’s life quality.

3.2 CASING / CABINET CONSTRUCTION

McQuay Air Handling Unit is designed in accordance BS EN 1886. It is constructed of maximum 2.0 mm
high strength extruded aluminium pentapost and internal post with double modular skin insulation material.
The patented frame channel design allows three identical pieces to be bolted together to form a composite
corner piece. Both of this features form the rigid frame of the AHU. The unit wall is made up by Double Skin
Polyurethane foam (PU) insulation panel with 0.5 mm high strength pre-painted steel as external skin and 0.5
mm galvanized steel (GI) as internal skin. Besides, there is special thickness: 0.8mm, 1.0mm and 1.2mm of
skin material upon customer request. The PU foam insulation thickness can be 25mm or 50mm with density
40 kg/m3, which provides an overall thermal conductivity, k = 0.017 W/ M˚K.

This cabinet construction reduces significantly the sound level from the fan of an AHU. The cabinet
construction is maintenance friendly through easy access to all components. The panels may be removed from
all units sections without compromising the unit rigidity which is ensured by the aluminium frame. The AHU
Unit is designed to low energy consumption and little condensation due to high thermal insulation and airtight
casings to EN 1886.

Access door or service panel can be supplied with a hinged access door with latch or with removable panel
with handles and panel block. Gasket around the full perimeter of the access doors frame shall be used to
prevent air leakage. Door shall swing outward for unit sections under negative pressure. Module to module
assembly shall be accomplished with an overlapping splice joint that is sealed with gasket on both mating
modules to minimize on-site labor along with meeting indoor air quality standards. The unit is mounted on
galvanized steel base frame for easy handling and positioning.

3.3 THERMAL BREAK PROFILE

This is a new and high quality thermal break aluminium profile which can enhance performance of an AHU. It is
constructed of two parts of extruded aluminium joint together with thermal barrier made out of nylon. The nylon
is sandwiching the inner and outer layers of extruded aluminum. This design could render the formation of an
effectively isolated thermal layer between the inner and outer side of the profiles so that the release of thermal
energy via AHU could be ultimately minimized.

The thermal bridging factor of the assembled DM Air Handling Unit is designed to meet BS EN 1886, Class
TB1. The thermal break profile only available for thickness 50mm. The thermal bridging for Standard DM AHU
are TB2 (50mm) and TB3 (25mm). How to define a good AHU? It can be determined by: no air leakage and
minimum heat loss through the AHU. The benefit of thermal break property showed as below increase the life
of AHU and also save their operation cost for using long term. In addition, it is an ideal design for high end
performance.

Benefit of Thermal Break Profile

i) Increased Energy Efficiency – System energy efficiency is improved by lowering the heat loss.
ii) Unit condensation minimized – Exterior condensation is potentially damaging or creating hazardous
conditions.
iii) Probability of moisture migration into panel interior, which can degrade the insulation, is eliminated in this
thermal break profile.
iv) Cut-off in an attempt to achieve energy conservation.
v) Improve sound insulation.

3.4 COIL SECTION

Coil is installed such that unit casing enclose headers and return bends. Coil is designed based on the
maximum utilization of available cross section area to achieve the most efficient heat transfer. Coil connections
should be factory sealed with grommets on interior and exterior and gasket sleeve between outer wall and
liner where each pipe extends through the unit casing to minimize air leakage and condensation inside panel
assembly. Coils shall be removable through side and/ or top panels of unit without the need to remove and
disassemble the entire section from the unit.

Coil constructed with aluminium corrugated fins and seamless copper tubes. Copper fins and hydrophilic
fins are anti-corrosive materials which are optional. The fins are designed purposely for better heat transfer
efficiency and moisture carry-over limit performance. Capacity, water pressure drop and selection procedure
is designed in accordance with ARI Standard 410.

Cooling coils can be used when the face velocity does not exceed 2.5 m/s. For higher face velocity, a moisture
eliminator is required to prevent condensate water carry over. For stacked coil in the coil section, drip pan
is installed at back between coils to drain condensate to the main drain pans without flooding the lower coil
section. The optional intermediate drain pan can be supplied for those needs to access for cleaning between
the coils. McQuay Air Handling Units can handle both chilled water and direct expansion system.

Figure 4: Direct Expansion Figure 5: Stacked Coil

System Coil

3.5 DRAIN PAN

The deep and sloped drain pan is designed to discharge the condensate water quickly. It is fabricated by
galvanized steel sheet protected with powder coating paint or stainless steel as option. Beneath the drain pan,
it is covered with 10mm PE insulation to prevent any occurrence of condensation. For stacked coil, additional
drip pan or intermediate drain pan fabricated from same material as main drain pan will be installed at back
between two coils.


3.6 FACE AND BY PASS DAMPER

It consists of opposed blades meter varying air volume through the coil and by pass to attain the desired
temperature. It provides very low leakage in the face and bypass sections. Face and bypass damper can be
provided for temperature modulation by bypassing air around the coil. The damper blades are fabricated of
aluminium and continuous Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) seals are inserted onto every damper blade. The
rotated rod of handle is made of brass and handle is fabricated of aluminium casting. The size of damper is
decided by the air flow volume (m3/s) and air speed (m/s). The air speed go through the damper shall not
exceed 7.5 m/s.

3.7 FAN

Fans are used extensively in air-conditioning for circulating air over coils. The fan type includes forward curved,
backward curved, twin fans and airfoil fans with double width double inlet (DWDI) centrifugal fan. The first
low cost option will be forward curved fans which are generally used for low static pressure applications.
The blade of fan is constructed of galvanized steel. It consists of blade which has tips curving forward that is in
the direction of rotation of fan wheel. In addition, it generates low noise level which is preferred for
installation in AHU.

Meanwhile, for backward curve fans, it requires higher speed and therefore has to be more sturdy in
construction. The blade of backward curved is made of heavy gauge steel or mild steel, painted after
manufacturing. It can handle high static pressure system and able to show higher efficiency over a broader
range of higher system resistance.

For aerofoil fans, normally it will be the last option due to the costly components. It is constructed of mild steel.
However, it shows higher efficiency, generate low noise level and can handle higher static pressures. McQuay
housed air foil fans can operate up to 2240pa of static pressure.

Fan performance of all these fans have been tested and measured in accordance to AMCA Standard 210. The
sound level is measure and rated in accordance with AMCA Standard 300. The fan bearing provided will have
a minimum L50 life of 200,000 hours, and are available as high as 1,000,000 hours. Bearings are selected for
minimum noise level and minimal device. The bearing is lubricated for life and maintenance free. Relubrication
is optional. Fan is dynamically and statically balanced to Standard ISO 1940. The fan shaft is manufactured
from C45 carbon steel. It is coated with a layer of anti-corrosion varnish.

There are two discharges direction: vertical and horizontal discharge. The fan discharge should be square (for
both forward or backward curved fans) in area and flanged and isolated from the casing by the fire retardant
grade flexible connection. Only one fan discharge is provided.

Fan selection requires accurate calculation of the air flow resistance through the whole system consisting of
the total of two parts; external and internal static pressure. External static pressure is found in the distribution
system, external to the air handler. Internal static pressure is the sum of the resistance of the coils and others
component and accessories. Use the DM AHU selection Software to determine internal component pressure
drops of the system. The software identifies fans available to properly handle the air flow and static pressure
for the system.

3.8 MOTOR

Motor is internally mounted integral to an isolated fan assembly. Standard motor shall be horizontal foot
mounting, induction motor, squirrel, totally enclosed fan-cooled (TEFV or TEFC) with IP 55 protection with
class F. Motor capacity cannot be undersized but oversized for desired running capacity. For the desired
operation speed between fan and motor, there are a few types of motor poles: 4 and 6 poles.

Motor Option

• 380-415 Volt / 3 phase/ 50 Hz ( standard)

• 440 Volt/ 3 phase/ 60Hz
• Standard efficiency motor (Eff2)
• Premium efficiency motor (Eff1)
• Dual speed motor
• Motor with space heater

There are a few components which are able to provide safety, efficiency and flexibility for the operation of
AHU. It includes thermistor, variable frequency drive (VFD), disconnect switch and others.

Figure 7: Motor


3.9 FAN / MOTOR ASSEMBLIES

Fan assemblies are easy to service provided with –

• The adjustable motor bases allow for proper tensioning of the belts at all times.
• Two-piece split belt guards
• The belt guard is fastened by bolt and nut via three clamps.

Figure 8: Fan / Motor Assemblies

3.10 SPRING ISOLATOR

The fan in a AHU can create substantial vibration that will

transform to panels / casing and consequent widespread generation
of sound waves. To avoid this, the spring or rubber isolator is mounted
between the fan compartment and the rest of the AHU to prevent
the transmission of noise and vibration into panels.
There are two types of isolators are used:
• Rubber mounting ( for blower <= model 355)
• 25mm deflection spring ( for blower > model 355)

Figure 9. Spring Isolator

3.11 THERMISTOR

A thermistor is a type of resistor used to measure temperature changes in protection of windings in electric motors.

3.12 VFD/ FREQUENCY INVERTER

A VFD provides adjustable speed control of a single fan motor. Normally, an AHU which has been installed by
VFD can vary the frequency within 30 to 60 Hz in order to control the motor rotation speed. It also provides
protection for the motor operation.


3.13 ENERGY RECOVERY

Introducing ventilation from outdoors is essential in maintaining desired indoor air quality. Heat wheel is
available as the option to match this requirement. These energy components can recover 50% or more of
the energy normally exhausted from a building. They are working based on this concept – capture heat from
exhaust air as it passes through the air handling unit and transfer it to the supply air stream. Hence, it is able
to reduce the cost of heating or cooling the outside air. During the winter, energy recovery components do this
by transferring energy from a warm air stream to a colder air stream. On the other hand, during the summer,
it is used to cool the air hot air.

3.13.1 HEAT RECOVERY WHEEL

It is constructed of aluminium coated with heat transfer material (silica gel or others) which is rotated by an
electric motor at constant or variable speed. It is currently known as the most efficient technology.

There are two sections of fan required: exhaust fan and supply fan. The heat wheel rotates at a constant
low speeds, capturing and transferring both sensible (heat) energy and latent (moisture) energy. The ability
to transfer both sensible and latent energy gives the heat wheel several advantages. First, it can reduce the
capacity of ventilation equipment. Furthermore, heat wheels can work at lower temperature without frosting
occurs. The supply air from the heat wheel is not near saturation level, and moisture in the ductwork is not
an issue. The benefit includes recover both latent and sensible heat by allowing reduction in system capacity
about 30 to 65%. The most significant benefit is to prevent sick building syndrome.

3.13.2 HEAT PIPE

Heat pipe technology was founded by president and inventor Khanh Dinh in year 1982.
It is a simple device that can transfer heat quickly from one point to another without requisite of energy input.
The basic make up of heat pipe is just a metal tube (usually copper) scaled at both ends, evacuated to a
vacuum and charged with refrigerant.

When one end of the pipe is exposed to warm air stream, the inside refrigerant absorbs heat and evaporates
(as shown in A) and the vapor moves to the cooler end (as shown in B). As the vapor reaches to the condens-
ing area of the cylinder (shown as C), the heat is given off to the environment and the vapor condenses. The
liquid returns by gravity or capillary action. This will be a continuous cycle inside the heat pipe.

For conventional air conditioner, it uses up most cooling capacity to cool the air to dew point but less capacity
for dehumidification. Meanwhile, air conditioner which is installed with heat pipe enhance air conditioner usage
by allowing more cooling capacity to go towards latent cooling by pre-cooling air before it gets to cooling coil
session. Only periodical cleaning is required.

3.14 HUMIDIFIER

There are a few humidifiers are used commercially in AHU. We install electrode steam humidifier, which is
categorized as BFDT series, the second generation, high precision, intellectualized electrode humidifier. It
requires an empty section to be installed. It is a device which is used to increase the air relative humidity in
atmosphere without steam source. It is a constant temperature humidifier. Its principle is the common
electrode humidifier regulates the generated steam by the way of controlling water level and electrical current.
Electrical loop will be built up through salt minerals in the water. Therefore, water will be heated up and boiled
until vapor is generated continuously. Quality of water in the region must be considered because it reduces the
steam capacity. (Softened water cannot be used)

11
3.15 ELECTRICAL HEATER

It is used to achieve desired room condition at certain desired relative humidity. With negligible air pressure
drop, accurate controllability, light weight, easy serviceability and inherent freeze protection, electrical heater
is valuable alternatives to conventional steam and hot water heating coils.

Electrical heaters are optional with either single step or multi step of heating process. It depends much on the
heating capacity. Heaters are available in 240V and the installation is completed with the contactor without any
thyristor control. It may require an empty section to install in the air handling unit.

 6.0 APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS
6.1 Installation Flexibility

McQuay AHU feature sectionalized design to provide maximum installation flexibility. Mixing box, filter, coil,
fan and access components permit the design flexibility of built-up systems with the cost-effective of factory
fabricated units. Every section is fabricated of heavy-gauge continuous galvanized steel or extruded aluminium
with exacting assembly procedures and rigid quality control standards.

6.2 Mounting and Access

Whether units are floor or ceiling mounted, care should be taken to insure that the supporting structure is
level and rigid enough for satisfactory unit operation. Ideally, a heavy concrete slab should be used for bottom
mounted units, and main support beams for top hung units. Long floor or ceiling spans should be avoided.

Unit should be located so as to provide proper access for routine service. Clearance for filter removal on both
sides of the filter section is usually necessary. Clearance should be provided as required for access panels.
Room should be allowed for coil removal. Cooling units require clearance for a trap in the drain pan line.

Access to the interior of McQuay air handlers is provided by hinged access doors or removable panels
wherever possible. For access between components, a versatile access section features hinged access doors
at both ends.

6.3 Ductwork

Good ductwork layout will minimize system resistance and sound generation. Duct connections to and from
units should allow straight, smooth airflow. Sharp turns in the fan discharge should be avoided, particularly
turns opposed to wheel rotation. Turning vanes should be used. Discharge plenums or any abrupt change in
duct should be avoided.

Figure 18: Discharge duct layout

Notes: 1. Elbows should not be closer than 1 1/2 to 21/2 times the largest dimension of fan discharge opening.
2. Dampers should be placed at least fan diameters downstream of the fan discharge.

6.4 Piping and Drain Fan Traps

Negative Piping should be in accordance with accepted

Pressure
industry standards. Undue stress should not be applied
at the connection to coil headers. Pipe work should be
Drain Pan supported independently of the coils with adequate
piping flexibility for thermal expansion. Drain lines
and traps should be run full size from the drain pan
2P connection. Drain pans should have traps to permit
the condensate from the coils to drain freely. On a
2P draw-through unit, the trap depth and the distance
between the trap outlet and the drain pan outlet should
be twice the negative static pressure under normal unit
operation.
Figure 19: Drain pan traps

6.5 Air Supply Systems and Fan Laws

An air supply system consists of an AHU cabinet, heat exchanger, filters, ductwork, grilles and register used
to distribute air throughout the building. The system is independent of the fan used to supply the system. The
resistance of the system, referred to as static pressure (SP), is dependent upon the quantity of air (CFM) that
is moved through it. The air quantity is determined by the cooling, heating and ventilating requirements.
For any system, the static pressure will vary directly as the square of the air quantity. This relationship between
CFM and SP establishes the system curve for that system and may be expressed as follows:

2 2
CFM1 SP1 CFM2
= or SP2 = SP1
CFM2 SP2 CFM1

The system curve is unique for a particular system configuration. Any change to the system caused by dirty
filters, damper change, etc., will result in new system curve.
For fans operating at low pressures (less than 10” W.G.), the effects of air compression allows fan operation in
a fixed system to be expressed by simple relationships. These relationships are known as fan laws and may
be used to calculate the effects of fan speed and air density changes on this system.

1. The flow rate varies directly with the change in fan speed:

CFM1 RPM1 RPM2

= or CFM2 = CFM1
CFM2 RPM2 RPM1
A 10% increase in fan speed will give a 10% increase in air quantity.

27
2. The static pressure varies as the square of the change in fan speed:

2 2
SP1 RPM1 RPM2
= or SP2 = SP1
SP2 RPM2 RPM1

A 10% increase in fan speed will give a 21% increase in air static pressure.

3. The fan brake horsepower varies as the cube of the change in fan speed:

3 3
HP1 RPM1 RPM2
= or HP2 = HP1
HP2 RPM2 RPM1

A 10% increase in fan speed will give a 33% increase in fan horsepower.

4. System static pressure and brake horsepower are directly proportional to the air density:

2
Density2 RPM2
SP2 = SP1
Density1 RPM1

3
Density2 RPM2
HP2 = HP1
Density1 RPM1

Consequently, the static pressure and brake horsepower decrease with an increase in air temperature or
higher altitude, and increase with a decrease in air temperature or lower altitude.
To determine fan performance for temperatures and altitudes other than standard (70˚F, 0 ft. altitude), the
static pressure must be adjusted by the density ratio before the fan RPM and BHP requirement can be
determined. Density ratios are expressed as temperature and altitude conversion factors in Table 13.

 9.0 BELT AND PULLEY SPECIFICATION
• DM Air Handling Unit comes standard with taper lock pulley and wedge belt with optional adjustable pulley
and belt.
• Standard service factor of 1.5 suitable for 24 hours operation.

9.1 PULLEY ALIGNMENT

• Adjust the motor pulley to align with the fan pulley with the use of a straight edge.
• Do not force belts on the pulleys groove.
• Firstly, loosen the bolts at motor base until belt can slide smoothly over pulleys edge.
• When all the belts are in place, proceed to adjust belt tension using the adjusting nuts on the motor mount.
• Use a recognized belt tension gauge to check the tension as shown in Table 18.
• Figure 23 illustrates the pulleys alignment.

• To check the belt tension, apply a force K large enough at the centre of the belt to deflect the belt 15mm
per meter. The deflection force for any belt should be within the minimum and maximum force shown in
Table 18.
• When the tension drops to the minimum value, readjust to the maximum value.
• During normal operation a belt seat itself in pulleys grooves and require periodical checks to maintain
tension.

WARNING: Improper pulleys alignment and belt tension are the most frequent causes of excessive
vibration as well as shortened belt and bearing life. It is important to install the pulleys as close as practical
to the bearing.
CAUTION: Do not over tighten the belts or the bearings may become damaged.

• Standard Aluminium fins are maximum 12 FPI (fin per inch). Copper fins are also available as option.
Fin thickness is 0.127mm and fin hardness is H0 and H22 for standard aluminium fin and others fins
respectively. Fins can be coated by Heresite or Hydrophilic fin material as a corrosion protective layer.

• Standard coil frame is in 1.5mm thick galvanized steel (GI) while stainless steel (SSTL) is available as an
option when copper fin is used to avoid galvanization effect. Coil casing is designed to have drain holes at
the bottom channels to insure condensate drainage.

• For water system, the coil is available in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 rows. Header and collar is constructed
of steel with copper material as the option. Its size is either 42 or 76 mm. Piping connection is only one
sided, either “left” or “right”, viewing from return air side. The connection for steel header is by Male Pitch
Threaded (MPT) joint. Copper header connection will be brazed joint but there is option with MPT by braze
connector.

 11.0 HEAT RECOVERY WHEEL SPECIFICATION
AHU with heat wheel cannot be selected by DM AHU selection software as other standard unit because it is
categorized as special customized unit. It consists of two sections: return air side and supply air side. The
arrangement is as below. To install the heat wheel in air handling unit, an empty section is required. The size
of heat wheel has to be considered for the specification drawing. Besides, spaces between heat wheel section
and the coil section must be considered to ensure the most efficient heat transfer between air flow and coil
medium at the coil section.
