Why industries need ventilation systems?

ventilation systems

Ventilation systems are required for closed structures such as a home, industry, warehouses and other such places. Ventilation systems are designed to improve air quality within a workspace as it removes contaminants, airborne particles, heat, fumes and dust. Removing them and replacing them with fresh air is what ventilation systems achieve. Having unadulterated and fresh air inside your workplace is important for the health of the workers engaged in productivity and also reduce heats produced by machinery. Controlling temperature and humidity within a manufacturing unit or shopping arcade is necessary because it helps reduce the amount of foul air circulating within the structure but pump fresh air to give clean and breathable air to the people engaged in activities.

Ventilation systems reduce the amount of heat inside a manufacturing unit and give respite to the workforce, because heat and humid conditions can make your workforce sweat and subject them to dehydration. Industries use ventilation components like fans, exhausts, air ducts, HVAC systems and natural ventilation to keep temperature within tolerable levels. However these systems cannot be established in workplaces by untrained or inexperienced technicians and will need the qualification and experience of technicians who are trained and have been providing excellent support to consumers needing Ventilation system design (تصميم نظام تهوية).

What are the key functions of a ventilation system?

  • Removes impurities – ventilation systems remove harmful dust, airborne dirt, gases, smoke and fumes and prevent workers from breathing poisoned air
  • Control humidity – humid air can be very hot and sweaty and ventilation systems ensure that it is neutralized and a comfortable working environment is created within a workshop and also remove excessive moisture buildup.
  • Prevent dangerous occurrences – ventilation systems ensure that flammable substances such as vapors and dusts are removed from the interior air so no fire accidents or explosions take place.
  • Increased production – workforce will accomplish increased production, thanks to the ventilation system with provides them with cool environment where comfort level is significantly increased
  • Expand lifespan of equipment – overheated machinery can become inefficient because their components can wear out quickly due to increased temperature. Ventilation systems remove hot air from inside and let fresh and cool air in, thus keep the machinery working efficently.

What are the types of industrial ventilation systems?

  • General Ventilation

This maintains overall air quality of a building andin broad term it includes both exhaust and dilution ventilation.

  • Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV)

This system collect and remove pollutants from hazardous operations such as welding section or a specific equipment thus prevent harmful air from spreading to other parts of an industry or manufacturing unit.

  • Dilution Ventilation

This system removes foul and contaminated inner air and replace it with fresh air obtained from outside. This system works efficiently for removing low levels of pollution and contamination. This can be achieved by mechanical or natural means.

  • Exhaust ventilation

These are single exhaust fan systems and they are specially meant for removing hot air from an area or machinery and is also used for removing smoke, steam or heat.

Put safety plans in place to avoid accidents

Ventilation systems not only remove polluted and hot air from inside and replace the space with fresh air but also prevent fire and other accidents from happening. Ventilation systems hugely contribute to the safety of an industry and the workforce engaged in productivity. Ventilation systems are part of a factory or warehouse unit’ safety plan and it is mandatory for all buildings engaged in work and production activity to get Approval of safety plans (اعتماد مخططات السلامة). It is under government regulations that adequate safety measures are put in place by industries, as it will help reduce mishaps at work place and increase safety to workers. An industrial safety consultant can help design your safety plan as per government rules. 

Role of Sort units (وحدات الفرز) in warehouses

Sort or sorting units arrange individual items in a specific order for increasing efficiency. Sorted items in warehouses are easy to locate and identify. These units are programmed for sorting items physically to place them in their destination, like a specific order or pallet and using system like pouch sorter and so on. Role of sorting units is immensely amplified in warehouse where you need to sort items and place them in a designated place. If you are an industry or warehouse or a building requiring a powerful ventilation system you can approach S D Engineering, SA, which is engaged in providing industrial safety measures in Saudi Arabia. you can contact them on phone number 0534193000 or send message to info@sdengineering.sa to fix an appointment.
