SOLARWALL / AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS
Solar heat for automotive manufacturing.
Automotive production requires large volumes of heated air. SolarWall preheats fresh air for paint shops, assembly buildings and industrial processes before it reaches conventional heating equipment.
Discuss your facility ↗ENGINEERING APPLICATION
Heat the air your production line already needs.
SolarWall collectors integrate with existing ventilation and process air-handling systems. Solar radiation preheats incoming air, lowering the amount of additional heat needed from conventional fuel. The configuration is designed around operating hours, target air temperature, airflow and available façade or roof area.
Paint shops and flash-off zones
Preheat make-up air used for paint processes, with controls designed around operating temperatures and production requirements.
Assembly and production halls
Introduce solar-heated ventilation air into large industrial buildings while working with existing fans, ducts and heating equipment.
Industrial process integration
Use solar heat upstream of conventional heating systems to offset part of the energy demand of air-intensive manufacturing.
