Centrifugal Fan in the Al­fried-Krupp hos­pi­tal

A joint aim: peo­ple's health is the top pri­or­ity

The Al­fried-Krupp hos­pi­tal in Es­sen is not just state of the art from a med­ical point of view but is also ex­tremely well equipped in the in­fra­struc­ture area. Peo­ple’s health is the top pri­or­ity and the hos­pi­tal staff’s per­for­mance is sig­nif­i­cant. Clean air is the ba­sis for op­ti­mum per­for­mance in the op­er­at­ing the­atre, as the best air qual­ity en­sures safety for the pa­tients and the op­er­at­ing staff.

A suit­able centrifugal fan from Scheuch COM­PO­NENTS was in­stalled af­ter con­sid­er­ing nu­mer­ous in­flu­enc­ing fac­tors such as room tem­per­a­ture, mois­ture and the noise level.

Germ-free air to ensure hygienic conditions

Germ-free air in op­er­at­ing the­atres, the op­er­at­ing area and the setup zones does not just re­duce the risk of post­op­er­a­tive in­fec­tions, but also the risk of death. Fur­ther­more, the time that the pa­tient re­mains in hos­pi­tal is short­ened and this con­tributes to faster pa­tient re­cov­ery. The qual­ity of the clean air sys­tem is de­ci­sive for guar­an­tee­ing these con­di­tions. The Scheuch COM­PO­NENTS centrifugal fan en­sures that this clean air is pro­vided and there­fore en­sures the op­ti­mum hy­gienic con­di­tions in the med­ical fa­cil­ity.

An es­sen­tial com­po­nent

Centrifugal fan with belt drive & two-sided intake port

In­stead of the new fan, there was an older model that was ob­so­lete and no longer met the re­quire­ments. The chal­lenge was to de­sign a new fan that was not just more ef­fi­cient but that also fit­ted into the nar­row space in the lo­ca­tion.

The ex­perts from Scheuch COM­PO­NENTS de­vel­oped a tai­lor-made so­lu­tion that is de­signed es­pe­cially for the avail­able space. The centrifugal fan with belt drive and two-sided in­take port en­ables us to use the lim­ited space op­ti­mally and there­fore to en­sure ef­fi­cient ven­ti­la­tion. The pre­cise de­sign of the fan fit­ted into the ex­ist­ing sit­u­a­tion seam­lessly and there­fore, in­stal­la­tion ran smoothly.

In­ter­view with Thorsten Kaipl

Why did you choose Scheuch COMPONENTS?
Thanks to my per­sonal con­tact with Mr Ingo Sobotta, whom I al­ready knew from the past, it was easy to choose Scheuch COM­PO­NENTS. How­ever, the de­ci­sive fac­tors were the out­stand­ing qual­ity, the com­pre­hen­sive ad­vice and the at­trac­tive price-per­for­mance ra­tio.

How would you describe the collaboration with Scheuch COMPONENTS? Were there any particular highlights during the course of the project?
The col­lab­o­ra­tion was ex­cel­lent. I would par­tic­u­larly like to em­pha­sise the speedy ex­e­cu­tion. We were faced with a time prob­lem that was solved ef­fi­ciently and in a so­lu­tion-ori­en­tated man­ner. The en­tire process ran smoothly and pro­fes­sion­ally.

Were there any aspects of the collaboration or the design of our fan that you think could be improved?
Every­thing went ex­tremely well with this first or­der. Of course, larger pro­jects can pose chal­lenges, but I am con­vinced that we will al­ways find a suit­able so­lu­tion to­gether.

Are you planning any other projects involving Scheuch COMPONENTS?
In this par­tic­u­lar case, we needed a fan with very high pres­sure, which is a rare re­quire­ment. If we have such re­quire­ments again in the fu­ture, I would def­i­nitely go back to Scheuch COM­PO­NENTS.

Is there anything else you would like to tell us?
Thank you again for the great sup­port. We re­ally ap­pre­ci­ate the col­lab­o­ra­tion and look for­ward to any pos­si­ble fu­ture pro­jects.
