Thermal barrier for air handling unit (AHU) cabinet

摘要

An air handling unit (AHU) includes a frame structure and panels that are assembled to provide ducting for handling air. Some panels include a living hinge which is one-piece with a panel perimeter. The living hinge is mounted onto side pieces of the frame structure and latched with a latching mechanism. A hollow compressible seal is attached to the side pieces such that closing and latching the hinged panels provides a sealing fit between the hinged panel and the frame structure.
