Fläkt Woods - Fans selected for landmark London building
Fläkt Woods has won an order to supply precision fans for one of
London’s newest landmark buildings; 20 Churchill Place on the
eastern gateway of the Canary Wharf Estate.
The building, purpose built for State Street Corporation, comprises
3 main sections; a 17 storey block to the north clad in natural
stone, an 8 storey podium wing of clear glass curtain wall to the
south and a natural stone base which wraps the building on three
sides.
FCS Ductwork commissioned Fläkt Woods engineers to design the most
effective ventilation mix. A combination including toilet extract
fans, Box and Copford fans plus JM axial flow fans fitted with
inverters, proposed as the optimum solution.
The building has a floor area of 355,000 square feet with 12 office
floors above ground on the northern section and 4 floors on the
southern section. The JM fans are being used principally for
ventilation, with some handling smoke ventilation at 300ºC for 1
hour and others rated at standard temperature. Many different sizes
have been specified, ranging from 500 mm - 1400 mm in diameter.
Fläkt Woods axial fans have been developed over the last 50 years to
ensure the most reliable and efficient fan possible for a wide range
of applications. All fans are tested to IS05801 Part 1, installation
category D for aerodynamic performance and BS848 Part 2 (1985) for
acoustic performance.
Fläkt Woods’ Boxed fan range is designed to offer environmental
management through a controllable solution, ensuring optimum
performance at minimum running costs. They are very compact and
suitable for installation in the most confined situations. The
intelligent control regulates the amount of energy required to
operate, by adjusting the power consumption to match system demands.
The system has already proved itself, significantly reducing
enabling times and leading to minimal installation costs. The fans
come with sensors, switches, valves and duct mounted dampers. Plug
and play sensor connectors can also provide quick, simple
installation for remote functions (upto 8 per fan), CO2 detection,
humidity levels and pressure.
