Product catalog summary

Overview and Application

The AGS5000 is a powerful air curtain designed primarily for industrial doors but also suitable for large premises such as shopping malls. It features energy-saving functions and intelligent control to provide effective protection tailored to door requirements.

Design and Installation

  • Timeless, clean design intended for horizontal installation; vertical and recessed models available on special order.
  • Recommended installation height: 5 meters (varies by premises).
  • Lengths available: 1.5 m, 2 m, 2.5 m, and 3 m.
  • Corrosion-proof housing made of hot zinc-plate and powder-enamelled steel panels (white RAL 9016, grille grey RAL 7046).
  • Adjustable outlet grille for optimal air direction.
  • Intake grilles open for easy access and cleaning of water coil.
  • Mounting options include wall brackets and threaded bars for ceiling mounting; design kits available to conceal mountings and cables.
  • Multiple units can be installed side-by-side for wider doorways.

Technical Specifications

The product is CE compliant with IP23 protection class. Two main variants exist:

  • Ambient (no heat) models (AGS5000 A): Airflow ranges from 2650 to 12000 m³/h depending on model size, with sound levels between 48 and 72 dB(A). Voltage: 230V~, amperage varies by model.
  • Water heated models (AGS5000 WL): Equipped with water coils for low water temperatures (up to 480 °C). Output ranges from 25.0 kW to 64.6 kW. Airflow ranges from 2400 to 11600 m³/h. Sound levels range from 47 to 71 dB(A). Water volume and flow rates vary by model.

Dimensions and weights vary by model, with lengths from 1515 mm to 3030 mm and weights from 100 kg to 235 kg.

Performance and Air Velocity

Air velocity decreases with distance from the unit, starting at 14.3 m/s near the outlet and reducing to 3.9 m/s at 5 meters. Measurements follow ISO 27327-1 standards.

Mounting and Connections

  • Horizontal installation with supply air grille facing downwards, positioned close to the door.
  • Electrical connection via terminal block in junction box on top of unit (230V~).
  • Water coil connections vary by model size (DN15 to DN40), with inside thread dimensions specified.
  • PC board SIRe control system integrated for easy connection and control.

Accessories

  • Wall brackets (GWB640) sized according to unit length.
  • Threaded bars (GP1010) for ceiling mounting.
  • Oval (GCO) and square (GCSB) design kits to conceal mountings, cables, and pipes (special order).

Control System (SIRe)

The AGS5000 includes an integrated PC board SIRe control system with three levels of functionality: Basic, Competent, and Advanced. Features include manual and automatic operation modes, calendar functions, filter alarms, eco and comfort modes, proactive regulation, and BMS system compatibility.

Water Control Valve Kits

Water-heated units use valve kits to regulate water flow, selected based on the SIRe control level:

  • VOS: On/off valve kits with two-way control and shut-off valves.
  • VOSP: Pressure independent on/off valve kits ensuring constant flow.
  • VMO: Modulating valve kits with stepless actuator.
  • VMOP: Pressure independent and modulating valve kits.
  • VOT: Three-way control valve with on/off actuator.
  • VMT: Three-way control valve with modulating actuator.

Each valve kit is available in various sizes (DN15 to DN25) with specified flow ranges and maximum flow rates at 10 kPa pressure drop.

Performance Charts and Output Data

Detailed output charts provide data on airflow, heat output, return water temperature, water flow, pressure drop, and outlet air temperature for different supply water temperatures (80 °C, 70 °C, 60 °C, 55 °C) and fan positions (max/min). These charts assist in selecting the appropriate model and settings for specific installation conditions.

Wiring Diagrams

Internal wiring diagrams are provided for various models (AGS5015, AGS5020, AGS5025, AGS5030, AGS6010, AGS6015, AGS6020, AGS6025, AGS6030) showing connections for actuators, transformers, sensors, motor protection, and supply lines at 230V~.

Critical Information and Best Practices

  • Installation height and mounting orientation are critical for optimal performance.
  • Use recommended valve kits compatible with the chosen SIRe control level for efficient water flow regulation.
  • Regular cleaning and maintenance of intake grilles and water coils ensure sustained performance.
  • Multiple units can be combined for wider doorways to maintain effective air curtain coverage.
  • Adjust outlet grille direction to optimize air curtain effect based on door and room conditions.
  • Follow wiring diagrams carefully to ensure correct electrical installation and safety compliance.
