Equipment for Medical Emergency Tents
Customizable Airflow Solutions
Emergency medical tents are an essential component of any disaster response and rapid deployment for emergency preparedness. Many of these temporary structures are used for emergency care, triage, mobile testing, decontamination, and more.
During the current COVID-19 pandemic these emergency facilities are part of proactive preparations for the anticipated surge of patients coming to emergency rooms with mild symptoms. The tents, along with other medical tent equipment, are a critical protective measure, as they allow hospitals to separate suspected COVID-19 patients from the general hospital population. The tents also help the hospitals efficiently conserve personal protective equipment (PPE) as they are designed for minimal staffing.
A key design element to these structures is to establish a temperature-controlled environment while reducing the risk of contamination. For optimum design, DuctSox air dispersion products are available in a variety of fabrics and shape configurations with many added benefits required in these demanding environments.
-
Hygienic Advantages
- Antimicrobial Fabric: Condensation can be hazardous to any clean environment. Antimicrobial fabric options inhibit bacteria growth.
- Can be Laundered: Ductsox can comply with the higher cleaning standards in healthcare environments by utilizing fabrics that can withstand multiple wash cycles in conventional laundry machines.
- Zippered Sections: Fabric sections are zippered together allowing the end user to remove and reinstall them without special tools or technicians.
-
Optimal Airflow
- 100% Customizable: DuctSox products are designed to fit the specific need of each space, allowing for each structure to get the exact airflow where it is needed.
- Even Air Dispersion: With a DuctSox system, the air is efficiently discharged along the entire length, providing consistent temperature to patients and staff.
- Lightweight and Simplified Install: The light weight of a fabric system allows temporary structures to incorporate air distribution with little to no overall load on the ceiling structure.
- 100% Customizable: DuctSox products are designed to fit the specific need of each space, allowing for each structure to get the exact airflow where it is needed.
Next Steps
When designing a fabric system, DuctSox engineers will detail performance and design requirements while creating a custom solution for your application.
In addition to design assistance, DuctSox provides an extensive Engineering and Design Manual that will guide you through the key elements of a DuctSox system.
Whether for a new building or retrofitting an existing space, DuctSox Airflow Solutions just make more sense than metal ductwork.
Fabric vs Metal
Systems that utilize fabric, such as DuctSox, provide targeted, precise and efficient air dispersion for new construction and retrofit projects. Additional benefits include a total lifetime ownership cost that is significantly less than a comparable metal ductwork layout and the ability for a system to be custom designed based on the application.
Whether for a new building or retrofitting an existing space, the benefits of utilizing a fabric airflow system outweigh those of metal ductwork.
