With the Guntner product calculator “MPC,” we are able to offer you
more than just an overview of prices or the complete product range.
This thermodynamic selection program enables you to calculate your
own tailored selections based on precise and actual thermodynamics
rather than factors or multipliers. A team of experts stand by to guide
you through the selection process.

The program can be updated via the internet ensuring that you always

We recommend using Guntner’s Product Calculator for exact

thermodynamic calculations. Varying conditions such as refrigerants,
humidity levels and material combinations are all taken into account by
the software to most accurately select products to fit your specific needs.

 Standard Features of Construction

The AGBK range provides a unique air distribution

pattern that offers the ultimate in worker comfort for
any type of processing room. Extreme low noise fan
operation coupled with our superior technology sets
the benchmark for the industry. These features result
in less acoustic stress on staff, reduction in staff
absenteeism due to illness, and provide a pleasing
atmosphere which encourages work performance.

CASING: Corrosion resistant Aluminum (AIMg3),

sea-water resistant.

All casings are powder coated – color RAL 9003

(Signal White) and suitable for all stringent food
industry applications. Construction detail takes
accessibility into account and does not allow for
“tight spots.” All parts are easily accessible for
service and cleaning purposes. Fan orifices are
optimized by manufacturer to ensure maximum
efficiency, air throw and airflow. All fans are
individually compartmented within complete tube
sheets to allow for fan cycling for capacity control
and reduction of operating costs. All hangers and
fittings used for construction and assembly are
manufactured from stainless steel 304.

TRAY: Trays come with insulated (air gap) pans to

prevent condensation.

Corrosion and sea-water resistant light weight

are powder coated color RAL 9003 (Single White).
All trays are our unique “fold down” type and can
be either folded down or completely removed,
