The ductless air handling system draws return air from a low level and discharges conditioned supply air at a high level, thereby covering a large area without the need for ductwork. The outlet has a series of upright and lateral vanes with respective adjustable louvers and flaps as well as a curved turning vane along the outlet's back panel and which extends to the top panel. The outlet turns the airflow from a vertical oriented flow to a horizontal oriented flow and directs the airflow outward into the space. The lateral vanes are situated between each upright vane to divide the airflow into a faster-moving upper stream and a slower-moving lower stream that respectively exit through an upper and lower sections of the vent. Further, a germicidal irradiation chamber within the conduit connecting the base to the outlet can disinfect air as it is circulated by the air handler.

Ductless air distribution system

The ductless air handling system draws return air from a low level and discharges conditioned supply air at a high level, thereby de-stratifying and covering a large area without the need for field-installed ductwork. The outlet is composed of a series of vertical and horizontal vanes with respective adjustable louvers and flaps as well as an integral turning vane. This outlet turns the airflow from vertical to horizontal, straightens the airflow and subsequently directs the airflow for uniform distribution throughout the space without the need for ductwork. Further, a germicidal irradiation chamber within the conduit connecting the base to the outlet can disinfect air as it is circulated by the air handler.

A pan chiller system including a refrigeration package having a condensing unit, a heat exchanger and a pump for circulating a chilled liquid coolant, a pan chiller unit in communication with the refrigeration package and having an outer housing and a food well received within the outer housing and a plurality of hollow divider bars arranged within the food well. An opening is defined between adjacent divider bars, wherein each divider bar is configured for directly receiving the liquid coolant chilled and circulated by the refrigeration package.
