Technology The highest Level of Energy Efficiency As a manufacturer of ventilation and air-conditioning plants, WOLF is able to conceive even booths with complex airflow requirements, so that your spray booth will be completely made by one hand and 100 percent optimized - also regarding energy consumption. Machinery complex with heat recovery and optionally with highly insulated oven machinery Rotary heat exchanger for heat and humidity recovery with high efficiency Air technology and heat recovery One of the great advantages of WOLF is the wide ventilation and air-conditioning programme by own production, providing the optimal conception for nearly each requirement. Essential is, for example, the right selection and dimensioning of heat recovery systems. In most cases, the approved plate exchanger modules are used. If also humidity is to be transferred, highly efficient rotary heat exchangers are used. However, energy efficiency means far more than using heat recovery systems. Control System and Regulation Modern mode programmes are controlling the optimal energy application for each kind of operation such as preparing, spraying, evaporating and drying. Single booth sections in large-space booths can be switched so that only the respective zone where paintwork is done is run with full air capacity. 3
