Beat the heat with Alemlube

Summer in a workshop, warehouse or factory can be a real test of endurance for workers and employers.

Working in hot conditions can be uncomfortable to the point of being oppressive, affecting work capabilities and productivity, from poor concentration and health concerns to injuries, particularly when working with tools, equipment and machinery or around vehicles.

The safety and wellbeing of employees is of paramount concern for all employers, with hot working conditions raising the spectre of workplace health and safety issues.

Using air-conditioning in often large spaces is ineffective, costly and impractical.

This is where Alemlube has the perfect workplace solutions.

Its range of powerful cooling units, comprising two evaporative coolers and four industrial ceiling fans, is perfectly suited to warehouses, factories and workshops where cooling methods such as air-conditioning are not feasible and are environmentally harmful.

Mobile evaporative air coolers

Alemlube’s two automotive premium mobile evaporative cooling units are perfectly suited to warehouses and workshops, providing the most energy-efficient temperature relief for commercial or industrial environments of any scale.

The easy-to-operate AAPKA30 and AAPKA24 models produce high volumes of airflow, both featuring an oscillating fan with adjustable swing louvres. They are fully mobile with sturdy lockable wheels and are fitted with robust, one-piece moulded polyethylene housing that does not crack or leak, resulting in low-maintenance capabilities.

Importantly, the cooling units are environmentally friendly as they cool without the use of chemicals or refrigerants and use less electricity. Known to be an extremely energy-efficient cooling method, these water evaporation units are highly suited for workspaces where the ambient air is hot and the humidity is low. They work by combining the natural cooling properties of water with a steady and variable airflow to lower indoor temperatures overall.

These evaporative cooling systems therefore provide substantial energy savings compared to refrigerated air units. The AAPKA30 evaporative cooler generates an impressive airflow of up to 23,000 cubic metres per hour, while the AAPKA24 unit produces up to 12,000 cubic metres of airflow per hour. Additionally, the units can detect the relative humidity in the workspace and adjust their water consumption to meet preferred and optimal working conditions.

Industrial ceiling fans

Alemlube’s Automotive Premium range of four industrial ceiling fans quietly moves large amounts of non-turbulent airflow over long distances, vertically or horizontally, using low amounts of electricity.

The four ceiling fan models come with variable blade sizes, from 4 metres to up to 7.3 metres in diameter. They can therefore be used in a variety of work conditions to ensure optimal airflow, in isolation for workstation spot cooling, or as a multi-fan system across large floor areas with high ceilings. They can also be used to displace fumes and other workshop odours.

At the top of the ceiling fan range is the AAP-CF-7E model with six blades, each 7.3 metres in diameter, suitable for cooling areas up to 1,800 square metres and producing airflow of 13,800 cubic metres per minute.

Effective simplicity is at the heart of Alemlube’s ceiling fan designs, as they feature 3-phase motor power supply which is ideal for plug-and-play installation.

The AAP-CF-6E features 6.1-metre diameter blades which are ideal for areas of 1,380 square metres, as it produces airflow of 12,000 cubic metres per minute. The 5.5-metre blade diameter AAP-CF-5E has an application area of 1,050 square metres, while the AAP-CF-4E comes with five 4-metre blades that are suitable for an application area of 450 square metres.

Powerful and maintenance-free, the fans’ motors and blades move significant high volumes of air at a low speed, providing superior performance and efficiency, combining maximum airflow with long-term reliability. Enhancing their durability, the industrial ceiling fans’ blades are made from high-strength aircraft aluminium alloy and are coated in PVDF.

The patented airfoil design, with its special reinforcing rib support system, increases the strength of the fan blades and avoids the fantail from sagging and fatigue of connecting components.

For peace of mind, all models comply with the Australian and European CE Standards, ensuring safety and quality.

With Australia facing another long, hot summer, Alemlube’s Automotiove Premium evaporative air coolers and industrial ceiling fans provide efficient solutions to beat the heat in warehouses and workshops across the country.
