Dantherm AC-M18 – tent cooler
Tent cooler
The AC-M18 air-conditioner is a portable unit developed primarily to provide air-conditioning in temporary or transportable buildings or tents. It is a compact, light-weight aluminium unit built into a rigid steel frame.
The AC-M18 is designed for outside installation with ducted supply and return air. For field hospitals, where the need for filtration is higher than that of normal accommodation, a dual filtration system for the internal air path is available. The ACM 18 is also available as a split system for sealed applications (ACM 18 CBRN).
