In addition to the effcient AirStop technology already used for different applications for some time, Masterveil developed Powerstream as a revolutionary system to stop energy losses from open deep-freezers. “Here we offer a much more energy efficient alternative in comparison with traditional air curtain technology”, says business manager Peter Deweerdt.
The AirStop from Masterveil keeps the conditions in two spaces separate with an ‘invisible door’. “Here we refer to gases, odours, temperatures and moisture – so much more than just the temperature. Powerstream takes matters another step forward for freezers. Much energy is lost each time the door is opened to drive goods in or out.”
Traditional air curtains are limited to, simply put, ‘heating’ or ‘cooling’ the problem. “Our Powerstream invention – developed in cooperation with Ghent University – reduces air curtain energy consumption by up to factor ten. is represents gigantic savings”, adds Peter Deweerdt.
SOONER INVOLVEMENT IN THE PROJECT
While in the past Masterveil was mainly asked to apply the system to cold stores and freezer rooms, engineering offices are now looking to the technology at a much earlier stage. “Engineering offices are already calling upon us for construction or conversion projects at an early stage in their projects, something that is an extremely positive evolution. We are also seeing interest in our revolutionary system from abroad growing strongly.”
