MET MANN presents its new VIS MANN air curtains which provide an air barrier that prevents exterior air inflow.
Its main function is that one of keeping the premises internal temperature, preventing the heat loss inside of it.
We obtain a great energy saving thanks to this system, since the conditioning equipments work less.
The big range of air curtains allows they can be applied on doors of 3, 5 up to 5m high and from 1, 2 up to 2,5m wide. Due to its modularity, these curtains can be installed lined up, achieving so to cover any door width.

TMI, LLC (Trading & Manufacturing Industries) headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania has air curtains for any need; temperature control, insect control, environmental controls. TMI has the right air curtain for the job.
Commercial door units are designed to be aesthetically pleasing, quiet, and efficient. Light Industrial units are best suited for applications inside a plant or warehouse. These popular units are ideal for controlling unwanted airborne contaminates, such as dust or fumes. Medium Industrial are the most widely used of all industrial air door units. These air door units have the same size cabinet as our light industrial units, but have more powerful motors and fans for increased performance. Medium industrial air doors are often used on loading dock doors to control heating and air conditioning loss. Heavy Duty and Extra Heavy Duty air curtains are for the larger industrial doors.
All Save-T Air Doors/Air Curtains are easy to install, quiet, and efficient. Most doors can be ordered with either electric or hot water/steam heaters. Heaters are mounted to the intake side of the air door unit and can raise the temperature of the exiting air stream by as much as 30°F. Indirect Gas fired heaters are recommended for larger industrial doors.

General purpose air curtain
Comfort air curtain, model SF, has been designed as an all round air curtain, suitable for 'normal conditons'. Like all other Biddle air curtains, model SF also comes with the patented rectifier technology. This ensures that the comfort is high (low air velocity) and that heated air stays in the building, resulting in maximum efficiency.
Ambient models are in some situations, very well suitable for climate separation in industrial environments like cold stores and chill rooms, where a low ventilation level exists.
By linking multiple air curtains next to each other, the air curtain can cover any width.
Specifications:
Capacities: Standard Performance (SP) and High Performance (HP)
Door heigths: 240 - 290 cm
Unit widths: 100-150-200 cm
Heating source: Water, electric or ambient
Models: Free-hanging and recessed
Standard colours: White or aluminium

Perfect working conditions with IndAC industrial air curtain
The IndAC model makes entrances in industrial buildings accessible for transport and prevents draught problems in the building. To provide a complete screening of the huge doorways, the air curtain must discharge large air volumes. Therefore, the discharge pattern in the IndAC model has been optimised. Using the patented, combined rectifier, the air is blown out through the curved discharge grille with as little as possible resistance. The air stream reaches the floor in a straight, vertical line, so that a minimum of energy is consumed. The homogeneous discharge pattern provides for optimum heating of cold outdoor air, thus eliminating draught in the building.
Various mounting positions
The air curtain can be mounted in different ways, so that the curved discharge grille will always be as close as possible to the door, which screens off the doorway completely. The modular design makes that multiple air curtains can be easily linked next to or above one another, so they can cover each and every door height or width.
Specifications:
Capacities: S, M, L and XL
Door heigths: 300 - 800 cm
Unit widths: 150 - 225 cm
Heating source: Water or electric
Control unit: Basic, Plus or Automatic
Free-hanging in various (horizontal and vertical) mounting positions
Standard colours: Blue and metallic
Benefits:
Comfortable working conditions (no draughts)
Low energy consumption
Free access
Combinable with overhead door
Easy to operate and control
Flexible suspension system
Easy to maintain

All round air curtain for industrial buildings
The industrial air curtain, model InduForce (IF), has been designed as an all round "fit to all doors" air curtain for industrial doorways. Thanks to the Biddle rectifier a lower air velocity is needed to cover the entrance and less energy is lost to the exterior.
The IF keeps the warm air inside the building, so this air does not have to be continually heated up or cooled down, thus saving energy. The air curtain supplies part of the heat capacity that is needed for the room. This capacity can be deducted from the total climate control equipment required.
Model IF can be installed above or at the side of the door. For climate reasons, Biddle recommends a vertical air stream, which means that the units should best be installed above the door. If there are architectural limitations, it is possible to install the unit at one or both sides of the door.
Horizontal mounting:
The air outlet grille should not be higher than 5 meters above the floor. Any door width is possible when units are placed next to each other.
Vertical mounting:
If the air curtain is installed at one side of the door, the max. door width is 4 metres. With an air curtain on both sides, door widths up to 6 metres are attainable. Several units can be placed on top of each other to cover higher door heights.
Specifications:
Door heights: 400 - 500 cm
Unit widths: 110-165-220 cm
Heating source: Water or ambient
Models: Free-hanging
Colour scheme: Blue and metallic
Benefits:
Comfortable working environment
Energy savings
Free access
Combinable with overhead door
Easy to install
Simple industrial design

The MAT model is Biddle's state of the art air curtains since, from a technological point of view. This is the most advanced air curtain that has been developed so far.
Separating the climates between the coldstore and the ambient area, where temperature differences of 40°C may occur, without blocking the passage. The MAT Air Curtain:
- saves energy (up to 80%)
- improves temperature maintenance in cold stores
- provides free access and fast logistics
- prevents misting and icing in cold stores
The MAT air curtain produces 3 air streams of different temperature and humidity parallel to each other. This makes that the door can be left open and that the temperature in both the cold store and the ambient area remains constant. As no moisture is exchanged any longer, there will be no more ice depositing on walls, floors, ceilings and cooling systems either, which reduces the risk of slipping. In addition, fork lift truck drivers have an unobstructed view. As the door stays open, transport can take place faster. And, as a result of the reduced icing, the cooling system requires much less maintenance. All this put together leads to increased efficiencies and cost savings.
Benefits:
- No misting
- No icing up
- Open door: Faster transport
- Energy savings
- Increased safety

ITW Vortec's Curtain Transvectors are air amplifiers, which use a small amount of compressed air to produce a strong, high velocity, laminar sheet of air. Ionizing versions of the air knives effectively neutralize static while providing a powerful blowoff to remove accumulated dust, scrap, particles and contaminants on surfaces and finished products. The airflow delivers positive and negative ions to the surface to kill static cling to improve cleaning. Available for a broad range of manufacturing operations, the Curtain Transvectors efficiently handle high-speed drying applications and clean wide areas such as wood panels, laminates, sheets, films and other large objects or flat surfaces. The patented design significantly outperforms similar products in reduced noise levels and providing excellent uniformity of airflow. Compact and easy to install, Curtain Transvectors have no moving parts, provide instant on/off, and are offered in various lengths. Stainless steel models are available, ideal for applications where purity, high temperature or corrosive environments are concerned.

Nex Flow air blade air knives are superior to competitive units for the following reasons:
- All our air knives are full flow which means they can be put end to end for continuous flow and takes up less space in tight areas. Even one competitor's so-called full-flow standard answer to our Nex Flow standard air blade air knife is not nearly as efficient as ours by their own published values and is only a small, flimsy version in comparison.
- All our air knives come with a stainless steel shim to maintain the gap for the compressed air to exit. Many companies use plastic shims which may be "squeezed" for uneven flow but more important, no matter how clean you make the compressed air line, the plastic will wear. Plastic shims is one of the biggest complaints customers have with air knives - Nex Flow however uses stainless steel shims as a standard in all air knives.
- Easy mounting. Some air knife designs are difficult to mount requiring them to be taken apart, often effecting flow and making the job of mounting more difficult. All Nex Flow air knives have convenient mounting holes.
- All Nex Flow aluminum air knives are anodized while many competitors do virtually nothing to the aluminum for protection. In fact, if you want any better protection they try to get you to by more costly stainless steel when simple anodizing is less costy and already "standard" with Nex Flow.
- Flexibility in connections. Except for the very short lengths, both standard and X-stream versions have compressed air ports at the ends and the back for flexible choice in air input.

ACI Air knife Systems are a cleaning, drying and cooling device used in both manufacturing and other processes. By creating a high intensity, balanced sheet of laminar airflow across the entire length of a component, an air knife has the ability to clean, dry or cool components, webs and conveyors..
The number of manufacturing applications suitable for air knives is bewildering. Typically they are used for cleaning, drying and cooling any type of surface ranging from cans and bottles to textiles and extrusions.
Examples:
Removing residue water from bottles and cans prior to product labelling, ink jet coding and packing operations.
In conveying systems air knives are used on continuously produced parts or products. In the Cement Industry ACI air knives can be used to remove dust and gravel from the conveyor. Rubber extrusion used in making seals for car doors and windows require a dip in hot salt potassium nitrate to give it a gloss. An air knife can be used to blow off the excess salt to restore the gloss.
They can be used to remove viscous contaminants from a surface. Cutting oil used in the production of threaded metal rods can be blown away by an air knife.
