INTRODUCTION

Presentation of the system

The AMICO precision air conditioning units are designed for civil use and for all environments characterized by the presence
of equipment with a high technological content: telephone and internet exchanges, data processing centres, meteorological
rooms, laboratories and climate controlled warehouses.
The Amico series consists of 2 types of conditioners:
• Direct expansion units
• Chilled water units
AIR FLOW
In the AMICO conditioners, the air can flow upwards or downwards (UPFLOW / DOWNFLOW)
UPFLOW
The Upflow air conditioning units (with upwards discharge of
the treated air) are designed for distribution of the air directly
into the environment with or without a discharge plenum or
through a system of ducting or by means of a false ceiling.
The suction of the air is normally from the front side of the air
conditioner, however, versions are also available with recovery
of the air from the rear of the air conditioner or from the base
support of the unit.
DOWNFLOW
Downflow units (with downwards air discharge) handle large
volumes of air which are distributed uniformly into the
environment by means of a void under a raised access floor.
The air is sucked in through the upper section or the front
section of the unit directly from the environment, or through a
section of conduit connected to the false ceiling or to ducting.
