CLD-B Type Marine Low-Noise Vertical Air Conditioning Unit | Low Noise & Compact AC Solution for Vessel Cabins
As the demand for comfortable living and stable equipment operating environments on ships and offshore platforms continues to rise, conventional marine air conditioners suffer from obvious drawbacks including high operating noise, insufficient shock resistance and large space occupation. Drawing on years of R&D experience in marine HVAC, Winnex Air, launches the CLD-B Type Marine Low-Noise Vertical Packaged Air Conditioner, an integrated vertical climate control solution designed for merchant vessels, research ships, workboats and offshore platform living quarters.


Product Overview

As an upgraded model based on CLD-A series, CLD-B is a water-cooled self-contained vertical AC unit. The complete unit finishes pipeline sealing, refrigerant charging and pressure testing before delivery. Shipyards only need to connect seawater pipelines and marine power supply, greatly shortening on-site installation cycle. The vertical floor-standing structure perfectly fits narrow ship cabins, eliminating ceiling installation and saving storage & passage space.


Five Core Advantages

● Professional Low-Noise Structure for Quiet Cabin Environment

Equipped with multi-section composite silencing air ducts and low-speed anti-corrosion wide-blade fans, the unit delivers far lower operating noise than ordinary marine vertical air conditioners. Optimized for wheelhouses, crew accommodation and central control rooms requiring quiet working conditions, it effectively avoids auditory fatigue during long-term offshore watchkeeping and improves living comfort.

● Full Marine-Grade Resistance to Harsh Maritime Conditions

The whole unit adopts anti-corrosion coating for metal panels and Cu-Ni alloy seawater heat exchange tubes. Standard anti-vibration base supports long-term stable operation under ±30° hull tilt, with strong resistance to heavy salt spray, high humidity and continuous hull vibration, suitable for ocean-going vessels and coastal offshore platforms.

● All-In-One Multi-Function for All-Year Climate Regulation

Integrated cooling & dehumidification, electric heating and fresh air filtration modules realize year-round air treatment: cooling and moisture removal in summer, constant temperature heating in winter, and independent ventilation in spring & autumn. Multi-stage air filters block marine salt dust effectively.

● Full Compliance with International Maritime Standards, Optional Explosion-Proof Version

The design complies with SOLAS, DNV, ABS, USCG marine codes, and the electrical system meets marine EMC requirements. Optional ATEX explosion-proof configuration enables safe deployment on chemical tankers and FPSO hazardous zones, available for full classification society type approval.

● Intelligent Control & Easy Onboard Maintenance

Independent intelligent control panel displays cabin temperature, system pressure and fault codes in real time. Front open maintenance panel arranges pressure gauges and electrical components on the front side, allowing filter replacement, refrigerant inspection and component maintenance without dismounting the whole unit, lowering maintenance workload on vessels.

● Typical Application Scenarios

Container ships, bulk carriers, ro-ro ships, fishing vessels, research vessels, platform supply vessels (PSV), offshore wind platforms & fixed drilling platforms. Widely applied to crew cabins, wheelhouses, central control rooms, dining lounges and instrument equipment rooms.

● Full Lifecycle Turnkey Support

Winnex Air delivers one-stop turnkey services covering heat load calculation, customized capacity design, manufacturing, on-site installation & commissioning, remote fault monitoring and global after-sales maintenance, offering long-term reliable equipment guarantee for shipyards and ship owners.


Conclusion

Featuring space-saving vertical layout, ultra-low running noise, anti-corrosion & anti-vibration performance, pre-assembled integrated structure and full marine certification, CLD-B low-noise vertical air conditioner has become the mainstream preferred cabin AC for medium & small vessels and offshore living quarters, serving as a cost-effective floor-mounted climate control solution within Winnex Air marine HVAC product portfolio.
