AGI 6000 Robust Air Curtain
Robust air curtain for large industrial doors
AGI is a robust air curtain intended for vertical or horizontal installation
in large doorways such as logistic centres, loading bays and warehouses. With
its powerful fans and high enclosure classification it is specially suitable
for industrial
environments. Its recommended installation height is 6 m. The recommended
installation width of AGI6000 is 8 m with air curtains on both sides of the
opening.
For doors in industrial environments
AGI has a stable and simple design.
It is available in four different lengths of up to 3 metres, which makes it
easy to create a continuous air curtain for large doors. In vertical
installation two units can be put on top of each other.
Great energy savings
In many premises doors remain open for a significant part of the day, this
results in huge losses of expensively heated or cooled air, especially when
the temperature difference between outdoor and indoor air is great. With
correctly installed air curtains great energy savings can be obtained.
High performance
Frico air curtains are developed and manufactured in Sweden. The air curtains
are tested in one of the most modern and advanced air and sound laboratories
in Europe which means that we can guarantee a high performance product.

Horizontal mounting
Mounting
The recommended installation height of AGI6000 is 6 m. The air curtain is
installed horizontally with the supply air grille facing downwards as close to
the door as possible. The unit is suspended from the ceiling by threaded rods.
For the protection of wider doorways, several units can be mounted in series
alongside each other.
Connection
Control (400V3~) is connected to the terminal block in the junction box. The
water coil is connected via connections with dimensions as given in the table
(see diagram) on the side of the unit. Water heated units must always be
supplemented with a valve kit, see Valves and Accessories.
For wiring diagrams and other technical information, please see the manual and www.frico.net.
Vertical mounting
Mounting
The recommended installation width of AGI6000 is 8 m with air curtains on both
sides of the opening. The air curtain is mounted vertically as close as
possible to the door. For the best effect air curtains should be placed on
both sides of the opening.
The unit can be turned and positioned on either side of the door. Two units
can be mounted directly on top of each other.
The air curtain is mounted on a floor frame which is included. The frame is
attached horizontally to the floor using fasteners appropriate for the
surface. The air curtain must always be secured at the top.
Connection
Control (400V3~) is connected to the terminal block in the junction box. The
water coil is connected via connections with dimensions as given in the table
(see diagram) on the side of the unit. Water heated units must always be
supplemented with a valve kit, see Valves and Accessories.
For wiring diagrams and other technical information, please see the manual and www.frico.net.
Control options
1 Unit without heating
Level 1
Airflow is set manually. The position limit switch regulates the airflow
on/off.
Control kit:
- RTRD, 5-step fan speed control.
- AGB304, position limit switch.
Unit with water heating
Level 1
Airflow is set manually. The position limit switch regulates the airflow
on/off. Room thermostat controls the heat output via actuator/valve on/off.
Control kit:
- RTRD, 5-step fan speed control.
- AGB304, position limit switch.
- T10S, room thermostat IP30.
Note! A valve set VRS25 (option: TVVS25 with SD20) should be added for a complete control kit.
Unit with water heating
Level 2
Airflow and heat output are controlled automatically based on the opening of
the door and the room temperature. When the door is open the fan runs at high
speed, when the door closes the fan will continue to run at high speed for the
desired time (2s–10 min.) set on MDC. When the door is closed the fan runs at
low speed if there is a need for heating, if not the fan is switched off.
The room thermostat controls the heat output on/off.
E.g. the thermostat is set on 23 °C and the difference between the steps 4 °C.
The thermostat will activate below 19 °C when the door is closed. When the
door opens, the thermostat will activate below 23 °C and normally the heat is
switched on.
Control kit:
- RTRDU, 5-step fan speed control, high/low speed.
- MDC, magnetic door contact with a time relay.
- RTI2, electronic 2-step thermostat.
Note! A valve set VRS25 (option: TVVS25 with SD20) should be added for a complete control kit.
Accessories – Control options
RTRD, 5-step fan speed control
With RTRD the air velocity is adjusted in 5 steps for optimum efficiency. The
air velocity is set to accommodate different external conditions.
T10S, electronic thermostat
Processor controlled thermostat with concealed and visible dials. Setting
range +5 – +30 °C. Closing contact for heating or cooling. Connection voltage:
230 V. Max. breaking current: 10 A. IP30.
RTI2, electronic 2-step thermostats
Processor controlled 2-step thermostats for room heating /cooling. Available
with concealed or visible knob. Adjustable temperature difference between the
steps (1–10 degrees). Save reduction via external connection timer (1–10
degrees). External sensor (RTS01) available as an accessory. High protection
class (IP44).
MDC, magnetic door contact with time relay
Starts the air curtain or increases from low to high speed when the door is
opened.
When the door is closed, the fan continues to run for the preset time (2 s–10
min).
This prevents the fan from starting/stopping continuously and is especially
suitable for doors that are frequently opened. Three alternating volt-free
contacts 10 A, 230 V~ activated when the contacts make. A MDCDC is included in
MDC. IP44.
MDCDC, magnetic door contact
Indicates door status. Extra MDCDC are used when several doors are connected
to a MDC. IP44.
AGB304, position limit switch
Starts the air curtain or activates a fan speed control when the door is
opened. When the door closes, AGB304 stops the air curtain or changes fan
speed through a fan speed control. Alternating contact 4 A, 230 V~. IP67.

Water control
VRS20/25, valve kit
3-way control valve with on/off actuator, adjustment valve, shut off valve and
bypass.
DN15/20/25. 230V.
The valve kit consists of the following:
- AV20/25, stop valve
- JVF20/25, adjustment valve
- TRVS20/25, on/off 3-way control valve
- BPV10, by-pass valve
- SD20, actuator on/off 230V~
The stop valve (AV20/25) consists of a ball valve which is either open or
closed. It is used to turn the water flow off and on. The water flow can be
fine-tuned manually with the adjustment valve and can also be completely
turned off. The water flow may be read off the valve. The kv value for JVF20
is 3,5 and for JVF25 it is 5,5.
If the 3-way valve (TRVS20/25) is closed, the flow through the by-pass valve
(BPV10) is low to ensure presence of warm water in the heating coil. This
leads to instant heat supply when needed and some degree of frost protection.
The actuator (SD20) works on/off.
The valve kit is available with two different valve dimensions: VRS20 – DN20
(3/4”) and VRS25 – DN25 (1”). The by-pass valve dimension is DN10 (3/8”). To
regulate VRS20/25, a suitable thermostat has to be added.
TVVS20/25, 2-way control valve
TVVS20: maximum close-off pressure 150 kPa (1,5 bar), kvs 2,6, DN20 (3/4″).
TVVS25: maximum close-off pressure 70 kPa (0,7 bar), kvs 4,5, DN25 (1″).
Pressure class PN16.
SD20, actuator on/off 230V~
SD20 regulates the heat supply. Works on/off. A 5 second closing of the valve
prevents sudden pressure changes in the pipe system.
