The sneak preview on Halton Marine KW3

Halton Marine introduces the very first galley water wash hood with Halton Capture Jet 3 technology at the SMM 2014 exhibition.

Halton KW3 galley water wash hood is the very first galley water wash hood with Halton Capture Jet 3 technology enabling up to 45% lower exhaust airflow rates.

What is Capture Jet technology?

Halton Capture Jet technology is a system that can substantially reduce the energy consumption of galley ventilation and at the same time improve air quality. By improving the total efficiency of the ventilation system, it is possible to gain savings in both initial investment and running costs, while also increasing worker productivity by improving indoor climate conditions on board.

Capture efficiency is the ability of the galley ventilation system to provide sufficient capture and containment at a minimal exhaust flow rate. The new generation of Halton Capture Jet technology creates negative pressure along the front edge and sides of the hood and assists in capturing and containing heat and effluents in the critical work area.

Halton’s system is unique. Capture Jet 3 reduces the effective net exhaust volumes while improving extraction efficiency, while fan and ductwork size are minimized. Capture Jet hoods prevent heat and impurities produced by cooking appliances from spreading to the work area. The hoods deliver a small air jet that pushes the upward-flowing thermal current toward the filters.

Compared to conventional galley hoods, Capture Jet 3 technology has a 45% lower required exhaust volume for extracting an equivalent heat load. Capture Jet hoods include Halton patented KSA filter, which remove 95% of grease particles sized eight microns and above. The remaining grease particles are filtered with UV-light technology.

Halton Capture Jet 3 technology will soon be available with Halton Marine brand-new KW3 galley water wash hood that is also compatible with M.A.R.V.E.L. demand-based ventilation and Halton UV-light technology.

The KW3 galley water wash hood will be on display at the Halton Marine stand (hall B5, stand 217) at SMM 2014 exhibition in Hamburg, 9 – 12 September.
