Labs & Critical Spaces
SEMCO knows that uncontrolled lab air puts research, safety and compliance at risk
Laboratories demand precise, reliable air quality control to protect personnel, safeguard experiments, and maintain strict regulatory compliance. High outdoor air requirements—often 100% outside air with 6–15 air changes per hour—mean labs consume significantly more energy than conventional commercial spaces, and contaminants must never recirculate back into occupied or critical zones.
This makes ventilation performance, contamination control, and efficiency central to every lab facility’s operational success. Without proper control, labs face increased exposure risks, unstable temperature and humidity, discomfort for users, and soaring energy demands.
FläktGroup® SEMCO® brings decades of proven expertise in delivering engineered air quality solutions specifically suited for complex laboratory environments
SEMCO energy recovery systems support healthier, more efficient spaces
- Advanced energy recovery for high‑demand environments: Labs require substantial heating and cooling to condition large quantities of outside air. Energy‑recovery systems like SEMCO’s wheel technology significantly reduce peak heating and cooling loads and help downsize mechanical equipment.
Proven performance in preventing recirculation: SEMCO’s total energy wheels undergo rigorous carryover testing, including tracer‑gas verification in accordance with ASHRAE Standard 84. These tests ensure that wheel matrices maintain extremely low levels of recirculation, even in challenging laboratory or healthcare ventilation scenarios.
