Design criteria
The most signicant design criterion in the selection of ecology units is the type of catering establishment. Since the
amount of grease, steam, and particles in the exhaust air will vary according to the type of food cooked, different models
are suitable for various kitchens.
We can divide common catering establishment types under four main categories according to the expected density of
odour and grease. This classication of low, medium, high, and heavy density kitchen types can be seen in the following
table.
Light density:
Standard kitchen exhaust fans suitable for
continuous high temperature operation are
sufcient.
Medium density:
Carbon ltration is required with a contact time of
at least 0.1 seconds following the electrostatic lter.
High density:
A two-stage electrostatic lter followed by carbon
ltration with a minimum contact time of 0.2
seconds is required.
Heavy density:
Carbon ltration with a two-stage electrostatic
precipitator followed by carbon ltration with a
minimum contact time of 0.2 seconds and a UV
ozone system or a minimum contact period of
0.4 seconds is required.
Different levels of control are applied for different concentrations of odor
and grease. The congurations proposed by Systemair in accordance
with the kitchen densities specied in the ASHRAE 154 standard are as
follows:
