How to choose between combined and integrated air conditioning boxes?

Combined accents are composed of different functional segments, while integral accent devices are delivered as more complete units. The two are not absolutely mutually exclusive. When selecting, check the functional combination, transportation dimensions and on-site connection work. Don't just understand 'combined' to mean that it must be assembled on site, or 'integral' to mean that the configuration is fixed.

Look at equipment structure and delivery method separately

Units with multiple functions and larger lengths may be transported in sections, or may be delivered after the entire unit is assembled in the factory. When the passage is restricted, segment size and joint treatment are particularly important; for overall transportation, the hoisting capacity, turning radius and door size must be confirmed. The final judgment will be based on the appearance drawing and transportation plan, and the product name will not be used instead of the drawing.

The function combination depends on whether treatment sections can be added, deleted, or adjusted according to the air treatment process; the transportation unit depends on the maximum single section size, weight, and on-site handling conditions; the connection work depends on who will complete the sealing, fastening, wiring, and on-site inspection. If any of the three is not confirmed, the choice of structural form lacks basis. How to arrange the functional segments, please refer toOn what basis should the sequence of functional sections of the air conditioning box be determined?。

Transport boundaries often determine structural form

On-site door openings, elevator dimensions, floor load-bearing and hoisting conditions often limit solutions earlier than functional requirements. Too many segments will increase the amount of jointing and sealing work on site, and overall transportation may be limited by access. When comparing, the maximum transport unit size should be marked on the floor plan and the transport path should be checked, rather than just looking at the total length of the equipment.

The assembly sequence and identification of segmented transportation also need to be agreed in advance, please refer toHow to identify the assembly sequence for segmented transportation of combined air-conditioning boxes? . Please refer to the protection methods of air vents and pipe joints before transportation.How should the air vents and pipe joints of air-conditioning boxes be protected before leaving the factory for transportation?。

On-site workload should be put into the same comparison range

When one quotation includes factory assembly and the other only includes segmented equipment, the unit price of the equipment cannot be directly compared. The connection auxiliary materials, on-site assembly, linkage inspection and delivery data should be put into the same scope, and the sealing and operation inspection methods after installation should be clarified.

On-site assembly involves joint sealing, fastening and electrical connections, and the workload is related to the number of segments and the form of interfaces. If the on-site space is narrow or the construction period is tight, too many segments may make coordination more difficult; if transportation conditions allow for overall delivery, the on-site workload will be significantly reduced, but the requirements for hoisting and access will be higher.

Maintenance conditions should also be evaluated together

The integrated unit has a compact structure, but the maintenance of internal components may rely on reserved doors and space; the combined unit has clear segments, which is usually easier to inspect and replace by segment. When selecting, the filter extraction direction, coil cleaning, fan maintenance and sensor location should be taken into consideration to confirm that the maintenance path is feasible in the actual computer room. When the inspection space is insufficient, you can refer toWhen a horizontal air-conditioning box is arranged against a wall, which side should be left for inspection? andWhat kind of space do horizontal air conditioning boxes and vertical air conditioning boxes require?。

Aili industrial supporting equipment

Aili Industrial can evaluate the segmentation plan based on sheet metal processing and complete machine assembly conditions, first confirm the transportation boundaries and maintenance needs, and then determine the manufacturing and on-site interfaces. Aili's industrial manufacturing end covers the independent research and development and production of motors and fans, control systems, sheet metal, air filters and complete machine assembly. The segment size, joint form and on-site connection method can be checked in the same package. Non-standard boxes can be adjusted according to the transportation channel and machine room space.

The specific structure, performance and delivery scope still need to be verified based on the corresponding configuration data and on-site working conditions. Actual results are subject to on-site leak detection and performance test results.

Related questions and answers

Does the combined air-conditioning box have to be assembled on site?
uncertain. The combined type emphasizes the composition of functional segments. It may be segmented during transportation, or it may be delivered after the factory completes partial assembly. It depends on the transportation conditions and manufacturing plan.

Is the configuration of the integrated air conditioning box fixed?
no. The integrated style emphasizes that the delivery unit is relatively complete, and the internal functional segments can still be adjusted according to the project configuration, and cannot be judged by the name alone.

Can Aili Industries assist in evaluating staging options?
The segment size and joint form can be evaluated based on transportation channels, machine room space and maintenance needs. The specific plan needs to be confirmed based on project conditions.
