Critical air management for patient safety and infection control
SEMCO champions better IAQ in Healthcare settings
In healthcare settings, indoor air quality (IAQ) can literally be a matter of life or death. Critical concerns are:
- Drastically reducing the spread of airborne microbes and contaminants
- Ensuring strict ventilation, temperature, dewpoint, and humidity control requirements are met
- Reducing the size of the physical plant (chiller and boiler) while significantly lowering the cost of conditioning the high outdoor air requirements
- Promoting patient and staff comfort
- Minimizing space and maintenance demands
- Containing the cost of healthcare
As the indoor air quality (IAQ) experts, FläktGroup SEMCO engineers solutions that address all of these concerns head on. Trusted by hospitals, senior care centers, and even some of the world’s most prestigious medical research facilities, SEMCO has proven experience creating clean, safe, and energy-efficient systems for healthcare applications at an affordable cost.
SEMCO solutions are exceptionally effective in enabling healthy buildings
- Industry-leading cross-contamination control: The SEMCO True 3Å® total energy recovery wheel efficiently limits contaminant carryover to 0.045% while generating true cost savings.
- Unprecedented efficiency in delivering superior air quality: The dual-wheel Pinnacle® dedicated outdoor air system intelligently manages 100 percent of a building’s humidity, temperature, and ventilation in a single package, responding to varying conditions on demand.
- Health and Safety Monitor: This device ensures optimum purge efficiency in Variable Air Volume (VAV) applications, provides real-time performance data, calculates energy savings, and more.
SEMCO capabilities satisfy real hospital needs
- High ventilation standards for critical applications: SEMCO® systems deliver a constant stream of optimally conditioned ventilation air into a space while stale polluted air is exhausted.
- Humidity and dewpoint control: SEMCO solutions control moisture in the air and prevent condensation on surfaces, helping eliminate the growth of mold and mildew and the spread of bacteria and viruses.
- Drastic reduction in dust, allergens, and other airborne particles: SEMCO technology greatly reduces patient and staff exposure to contaminants, promoting infection control and comfortable breathing.
- VAV expertise: SEMCO recognizes that the ideal ventilation, temperature, and humidity levels across a hospital environment are not uniform and designs responsive systems to meet the variations in demands.
- Minimal maintenance: Hospitals operate around-the-clock, and so should their ventilation system.
- Noise and vibration reduction: From the quiet operation of its chilled beams to the silencing capabilities of its acoustic and thermal panels and air duct silencers, SEMCO facilitates an environment conducive for patient recovery.
- Substantial energy and cost savings over traditional over-cooling and reheat systems
