GEZE Technologies for Energy Efficient and Customised HVAC Solutions for Modern Buildings in Hot and Humid Climate Condition

DUBAI, UAE, August 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

In an era of high fuel and electricity consumption costs, automation of building doors and windows for smart HVAC systems lowers energy bills by eliminating wasted power consumption. Nowadays main entrances are being upgraded to fully automatic doors. These systems allow for more foot traffic to and from the main entrance of the building structure, and give spaces a modern look and feel.

In the summer, moisture will typically flow into an air-conditioned building, increasing humidity and requiring dehumidification. In some building types and climates, dealing with latent heat may be as big a problem as dealing with sensible heat.

For this purpose, GEZE has developed a streamlined classification of automated door systems that eliminates waste by monitoring and controlling movement of doors and windows. These technologies are employed to maintain proper egress, integration with the building access control systems as well as to improve the buildings overall energy efficiency.

Fully automatic revolving door - GEZE TSA325NT 

The fully automatic door with movement detectors is suited for high access frequency. Thus this revolving door offers maximum comfort and smooth and trouble-free passage. These door systems can be produced up to a maximum inner diameter of 3600 mm. The automatic revolving door is activated via inside and outside movement detectors. Upon activation the door accelerates and rotates at an automatic speed. The automatic speed is adjustable and the time delay can be freely adjusted for the modes of operation i.e. longer delay in the summer months and no delay in cooler temperatures. As a further option a disabled person's button can be installed on the inside and outside of the door granting even better access control. With this switch, the revolving speed is reduced to allow wheelchair users or people who have difficulty walking to pass through the revolving door without any problems. The opening/closing time can also be adjusted. At the end of the time delay the revolving door reduces speed in all operating modes and stops in the final position, where the door leaves seal tightly against the side walls, thus leaving all environmental influences such as draughts, exhaust gases from vehicles, hot and noise outside the building. Due to the symmetric construction, the drum of the revolving door is closed by two leaves, which results in an improved protection against environmental influences and an improved air trap effect. The other advantages of a revolving door with regards to the energy saving aspects is further reduction of energy loss in the entrance area by up to 50 % compared with a sliding door; the penetration of draught can be reduced from 7 m to 60 cm.
