Create a uniform climate in livestock structures with Munters air inlet

By Munters Europe AB

IS Air inlets are designed by Munters Turbovent to be used as ceiling or roof inlets in livestock structures. The patented star diffuser system ensures that the incoming air stream is accurately controlled and radially distributed to create a uniform climate inside the structure.
During cold periods, the cold incoming air should be heated before it makes contact with animals housed inside a structure. For this purpose the unique design of the star diffuser directs air horizontally when it is set to small openings. This allows the incoming air to be mixed with the warm air that is found near the roof of the structure. If a ceiling is installed, the air can be directed along the ceiling. By doing this, one can make use of the Coanda effect, in which the airstream “sticks” longer to the ceiling. This allows for more mixing time between the cold incoming air and the hot air near the ceiling. Longer mixing time results in a more uniform indoor climate.

During hot periods the ventilation demand for livestock structures increases and it is no longer necessary to heat up the incoming air before it comes in contact with the animals.

The star diffuser responds perfectly to this change in ventilation demand. As the blades of the diffuser open more, it starts to direct air down towards the animals, thereby supplying more air directly to them.

The IS Air inlet is based on a patented “click system” enabling compact transport volumes and quick on-site assembly. It is available in 600mm and 800mm diameters of durable black or white polyethylene and comes with a wire mesh for prevention of wild animal entry.
