In the design of functional containers, energy storage systems, or electrical control cabins, ventilation and temperature control are crucial to ensure stable equipment operation.
In many projects, traditional full-scale air conditioning systems, while comprehensive, can be expensive, complex to maintain, and occupy significant space. Leveraging years of engineering experience, TLS has developed a lightweight and cost-effective ventilation solution—combining fans, exhaust units, and ducted air conditioning to ensure proper temperature control and airflow for critical equipment. This approach is both reliable and economical, enabling more efficient and flexible project operation.
1. Flexible Ventilation: Avoid “Over-Engineering” for Every Scenario
Traditional full air conditioning systems include compressors, refrigerant loops, and complex control modules:
For scenarios where precise temperature control is not critical, but good airflow is still required—such as electrical cabins, energy storage systems, instrument boxes, and maintenance rooms—a fan + exhaust + ducted air conditioning combination provides energy-efficient and reliable ventilation without over-engineering.
2. TLS “Lightweight Ventilation System” Solution
TLS customizes a coordinated system of three key devices according to the project environment and heat load:
Fan System — Core of Positive Pressure and Air Supply
3. Conclusion: Optimizing Ventilation with Design and System Thinking
TLS believes that every project requires the most appropriate system, not simply the most complex or overbuilt solution. Through modular design and system integration, the combination of fans, exhausts, and ducted air conditioning offers a cost-effective path balancing performance, reliability, and budget.

1. Flexible Ventilation: Avoid “Over-Engineering” for Every Scenario
Traditional full air conditioning systems include compressors, refrigerant loops, and complex control modules:
- Complexity: Difficult to maintain, especially in remote areas or offshore platforms.
- High energy consumption: Continuous operation can be challenging for power-limited projects.
- Large footprint: Occupies valuable internal space inside the container.
For scenarios where precise temperature control is not critical, but good airflow is still required—such as electrical cabins, energy storage systems, instrument boxes, and maintenance rooms—a fan + exhaust + ducted air conditioning combination provides energy-efficient and reliable ventilation without over-engineering.

TLS customizes a coordinated system of three key devices according to the project environment and heat load:
Fan System — Core of Positive Pressure and Air Supply
- Introduces clean air into the container, maintaining a slight positive pressure to prevent dust or harmful gas intrusion.
- Uses IP56 (or higher) rated fans capable of long-term continuous operation.
- Works with pressure sensors and intelligent control for precise airflow adjustment.
- Creates an inlet-outlet airflow path in combination with the fans, ensuring continuous air movement.
- Temperature-linked operation, automatically activating exhaust when internal temperature rises.
- Optional explosion-proof or corrosion-resistant versions suitable for chemical or offshore environments.
- Provides efficient cooling for heat-sensitive equipment like batteries or electrical cabinets.
- Short cooling paths improve efficiency and save approximately 30% energy compared to traditional solutions.
- Integrated design simplifies installation and maintenance.
