iDEAL Air Direct Fired AMU Heating System — RS-1001 (3-Phase)
The RS-1001-3PH-230V-13K-5HP is the standard 3-phase configuration of CPI/Rammstein Air's direct-fired air makeup unit, supplying heated makeup air to a paint spray booth to replace air pulled out by the booth's exhaust fan. It's rated at 1.2 million BTUH with 13,000 CFM airflow on natural gas or LP, sized for side-down and semi-down-draft booth configurations that require a plenum or canopy.
Running on 230V 3-phase service, this is the manufacturer's standard electrical configuration for the RS-1001 line, pairing a 10 HP intake motor with a factory-fused and wired 5 HP exhaust VFD. The deluxe control panel adds an hour meter, interlock status lights, and cycle/elapsed time displays.
It's built for collision centers and body shops with 3-phase electrical service already available, looking for a factory-supported, ETL-listed AMU heater to run a side-down or semi-down-draft spray booth.
Who It's Built For
- ✅ Collision repair and body shops running a side-down or semi-down-draft paint booth
- ✅ Facilities with 230V 3-phase electrical service already in place
- ✅ Shops replacing an aging or failed AMU heater and standardizing on a factory-supported unit
What It's NOT Built For
- ❌ Booths needing electric-only heat with no gas/LP line — see the RS-3001-EHS-30KW electric AMU heater instead
- ❌ Facilities without 3-phase power — see the RS-1001-1PH-230V-13K-10HP single-phase configuration instead
