Abstract: A panel provided for use in an air handling unit includes a skin and a fixture, the fixture and the skin composed of a metal material. The fixture has a base, with an opening formed in the base. The base includes at least one riser extending substantially perpendicular to the base, the at least one riser being secured to the skin to form an enclosed chamber between the skin and the fixture. A perforated sheet is disposed over the opening, a layer of film disposed on a surface of the perforated sheet facing the skin. A first insulating material is disposed on a surface of the film layer opposite the perforated sheet. A second insulating material is disposed in the enclosed chamber between the first insulating material and the skin.

Abstract: A roof panel for use in an air handling unit including a skin, and a fixture having a base. The base is interposed between opposed ends and opposed risers extending from the ends of the base in a direction away from the surface. The risers are secured to the skin to form an enclosed chamber between the skin and the fixture. An insulating material is then injected into the enclosed chamber. Substantially no standing liquid accumulates on the skin when the base is secured to the air handling unit framework.

Abstract: An air handling unit (AHU) for housing a number of components used in a heating or cooling system to provide forced air for climate control in a particular structure includes a single raceway construction having both low thermal conductivity and enhanced mechanical properties for use with lifting the AHU; a single insulated panel construction having a minimum number of components as well as enhanced mechanical properties for use as the floor in an AHU compartment; to minimize costs associated with fabrication and installation.
