Space-saving, efficient circulation for air handling unit water circuits.
Vertical in-line centrifugal pumps are installed directly into the piping run, requiring no baseplate and minimal floor space—making them ideal for tight mechanical rooms serving Air Handling Units (AHUs). EKG Malaysia supplies and installs these compact, quiet pumps specifically for chilled water and heating hot water circulation to AHUs, ensuring reliable performance and easy maintenance.
Key Advantages for AHU Applications:
Compact Footprint: Vertical design uses floor space efficiently, crucial in crowded plant rooms or rooftop AHU installations.
Simplified Installation: Suction and discharge flanges are in-line, simplifying piping and alignment.
Easy Maintenance: The rotating assembly (impeller, shaft, bearings) can be removed for service without disconnecting the main piping.
Quiet Operation: Vertical orientation and balanced design minimize vibration transmission.
Energy Efficient: Available with high-efficiency (IE3/IE4) motors and optimized hydraulics.
Typical AHU System Integration:
Chilled Water Coil Circulation: Pumping chilled water from the main building loop through the AHU's cooling coil.
Heating Hot Water Coil Circulation: Circulating hot water from a boiler or heat exchanger through the AHU's heating coil.
Dedicated AHU Pumps: Often used in Primary-Secondary systems where a dedicated pump serves one or more AHUs, controlled by the unit's valve.
Critical Installation & Design Considerations:
Proper Pipe Support: The pump casing must not support the weight of the piping. Adequate pipe hangers are essential before and after the pump.
Suction Conditions: Ensure adequate straight pipe length before the pump suction (typically 5-10 pipe diameters) for smooth flow.
Access for Service: Sufficient vertical space above the motor for removal of the rotating assembly.
Air Venting: Highest point in the system should have an air vent; the pump casing may also require manual venting during startup.
Our Vertical In-line Pump Service for AHUs:
Correct Sizing: Matching pump flow and head to the AHU coil pressure drop and control valve requirements.
Supply & Installation: Providing the pump, flexible connectors, isolation valves, and strainers as a complete package.
Commissioning: Ensuring proper venting, checking rotation, and verifying performance (flow and pressure).
Maintenance Support: Scheduled bearing checks, seal replacement, and motor service.
Maximize performance in minimal space.
A vertical in-line pump is the smart, modern choice for efficient and reliable AHU water circulation.
