RCT ReactAway – Duct Capture Ray™ UV-C unit

Applications

Halton ReactAway is a treatment unit equipped with Capture Ray™ technology and designed to be installed on extract ducts from commercial kitchens.

Capture Ray™ technology is used to reduce ductwork cleaning costs, enhance fire safety, and prevent the risk of legal actions from neighboring residents due to cooking odors discharged by commercial kitchens located in densely populated areas. It becomes essential when ductwork is difficult to access for cleaning or in heritage or classified buildings with strict fire safety requirements. It is commonly integrated into Halton's hoods and ventilated ceilings.

The Halton ReactAway unit was specifically designed to retrofit existing kitchens with Capture Ray™ technology, without major modifications to existing hoods or ventilated ceilings, while ensuring complete operational safety. It can also be used to complement Halton’s Capture Ray™ hoods or ventilated ceilings when additional UV capacity is needed to meet higher pollution control requirements.

After treatment, it is possible to recover heat from the extracted air, making ReactAway particularly suitable for projects targeting LEED (1), BREEAM (2), DGNB (3), RE2020 (4), or other similar programs or certifications.

Description

Substantial energy savings

• Enables sustainable heat recovery to preheat makeup air or water, generating substantial energy savings in HVAC operation and/or domestic hot water production.

Improved safety, maintenance savings and respect for the neighborhood

• The Capture Ray™ technology keeps the exhaust plenums and downstream ductwork virtualy free of grease deposits. The ductwork cleaning operations are cut down to the minimum legal frequency (if applicable) or to the strict minimum.
• Combines significant savings on ductwork cleaning costs with optimized hygiene and fire safety

Other benefits and features

• Construction from stainless steel, 1.2 mm thick. Fully welded casing for improved robustness.
• Installation in ceiling voids or in a technical plant room. Vertical or horizontal position is supported.
• Optional outdoor horizontal installation includes covers for the ballast boxes and a cap above the UV lamp access door.
• Optional prefiltration to improve the UV-C neutralization process which achieves optimal efficiency on medium to small grease particles, grease vapors, and VOCs.
• Capacity from 1440 to 17280 m³ h (400 to 4800 I/s). Higher capacities upon request.
• [option] Advanced 24/7 distant monitoring capabilities thanks to Halton Connect IoT (Internet of Things) platform.
• Highest value of ownership thanks to Halton Connect & Care smart services available as an option from kitchens commissioning.
• Total access security to UV-C lamps. Includes a verification of the correct closing of the access hatch to the UV lamps.
• Lamps lifetime: up to 20 months or 13,000 hours.
• The ballasts and controllers boxes can be mounted on the most suitable side of the unit or up to 1.5 m away.
• The unit is delivered with the 5'' Halton Mini Touch Screen as user interface. It can be installed up to 100 m from the unit.
• When combined with other Halton connected technologies, the unit becomes part of the full Halton Connect™ platform that includes the Halton Touch Screen.
