How We Help You Validate Performance

Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT)

For custom AHU and dehumidifier orders, we offer witnessed factory acceptance testing at our manufacturing facilities. Tests include airflow measurement (per EN 1886), sound power level testing (per ISO 3744), heat recovery efficiency verification, and filter leakage testing (per EN 1886 Class F9). Test reports are provided with each unit.

On-Site Performance Verification

After commissioning, our engineers perform on-site measurements to verify that installed performance matches design specifications. Measurements include supply and return air psychrometric conditions, fan power consumption, static pressure profiles, and BMS data point verification. Results are documented in a commissioning report signed by our field engineer.

Free Sample Testing Program

For evaporative cooling media and desiccant rotor replacements, we provide sample materials for independent laboratory testing. Clients can verify wettability, saturation efficiency, and structural integrity before committing to a full order.

Application Engineer Consultation

Before purchasing, you can schedule a free consultation with a Munters application engineer who will review your facility conditions, model expected system performance using psychrometric simulation tools, and provide a written performance guarantee for the selected equipment configuration.

Honest Engineering

What Our Systems Can and Cannot Do

Every air treatment technology has performance boundaries. Understanding these upfront helps you make the right investment decision.

Evaporative Cooling: Climate Dependency

Indirect evaporative cooling performance is directly tied to outdoor wet-bulb temperature. In hot-humid climates (wet-bulb above 24°C), evaporative systems cannot achieve the same temperature reduction as mechanical refrigeration. Facilities in ASHRAE Climate Zones 1A-2A may require hybrid configurations combining evaporative pre-cooling with supplemental DX stages to meet year-round cooling demands.

Desiccant Dehumidifiers: Reactivation Energy

Desiccant rotor dehumidifiers require thermal energy for reactivation, typically consuming 3-5 kW of heat per kg of moisture removed. Without waste heat recovery or gas-fired reactivation, operating costs can exceed those of refrigerant-based systems at moderate humidity targets (above 45% RH). We recommend desiccant systems primarily for applications requiring dewpoints below 10°C or operating in sub-zero ambient conditions where refrigerant coils frost.

Custom AHU Lead Times

Standard AHU configurations ship within 6-8 weeks, but units requiring specialized coatings (e.g., phenolic-coated coils for coastal or chemical environments), non-standard materials, or complex BMS integration may require 10-14 weeks. Projects with tight commissioning deadlines should engage our engineering team during the design phase to lock in production slots.

Service Coverage Boundaries

While Munters maintains 15 service centers across 45+ countries, emergency response times under 24 hours apply only within designated service zones (typically within 200 km of a service center). Remote or offshore installations may experience longer mobilization times; for such sites, we recommend maintaining a critical spare parts inventory on-site.
