Only the finest customers who need top performance use Air Zone International. Air Zone manufactured (2) 48,000 cfm Outdoor Air Handling Units for the Shell Perdido topside platform for the purpose of supplying conditioned air to the crew’s living quarters on the subsea station. These custom units, designed at over 6.00” of TSP, were constructed from 316 Stainless Steel (16 gauge exterior and 20 gauge internal liner) and included Twin City Belt Drive Plenum Fans, High Energy Efficient TEFC motors, 2 Staggered Chilled Water Coils with Copper fins, Baked Heresite Phenolic Coating and 316L Stainless Steel Casing and Return Air and Supply Air Isolation Dampers also constructed from 316L Stainless. The units were shipped as a competed assembly from the Air Zone factory in February, 2009.

AHUs had better be designed to last and have little need for maintenance when they are being installed on a 555’ high tower exposed to the Gulf of Mexico weather elements and designed to drill in 8,000’ of water. While not all jobs require such tough and exacting specifications, for engineers it’s good to know a company can meet them when they are required.
