Abstract
A decentralized system for providing an optimized environment in a room, the decentralized system includes a balanced ventilation system and a fluid system both arranged in a housing. The decentralized system includes a compressor which is suspended by three or more springs attached to the compressor at a horizontal plane at the compressor's center of gravity or less than 20% of the compressor's length above or below the compressor's center of gravity.
Claims16
A decentralized system for providing an optimized environment in a room, the system comprising:
- a balanced ventilation system configured to extract air from the room and exhaust the air to an external environment, but also to draw replacement air into the room, thus maintaining air pressure within the room, and
- a fluid system, the fluid system being a heat pump configured for transferring heat in the balanced ventilation system,
- wherein:
- the balanced ventilation system and the fluid system are both arranged in a housing,
- the fluid system comprises a suspended compressor enclosed in the housing,
- the compressor is suspended by three or more springs within the housing, the springs being adapted to absorb vertical vibrations from the compressor, wherein the suspended compressor is further located within a sound and air tight casing, the springs are attached to a ceiling of the sound and air tight casing, and the casing includes openings for fluid lines stemming from the compressor,
- wherein the fluid lines stemming from the compressor are flexible tubes with no mechanical contact to the sound and airtight casing to ensure that no vibrations from the compressor is transferred to the housing,
- wherein the sound and air tight casing openings include flexible rubber gaskets, and the flexible tubes from the compressor are adapted to run through and be contained in the openings in such a way as to eliminate sound and vibration transmission from the flexible tubes to the housing of the fluid system, and
- the springs are attached to the compressor at a horizontal plane at the compressor's center of gravity or less than 20% of the compressor's length above or below the compressor's center of gravity.
