In 1875, Mr. L.J. Wing founded the L.J Wing Company with his
invention of a disc fan with variable pitched blades. Mr. Wing
produced many notable inventions and was recognized by the
American Institute for his outstanding achievements. These
include his introduction of the first steam turbine driven fan in
1905; his development of the first floor mounted steam unit
heater in 1917; and also in 1917, a test on the U.S.S. Kimberly
using L.J. Wing pressure type fans that resulted in over 200
World War I Navy ships being fitted with those ventilation fans.
In 1920, L.J. Wing revolutionized the heating industry by
producing The Featherweight Heater which utilized a light-
weight copper heating coil and became the first overhead unit
heater. This led to the first Door Heater in 1921, the first integral
face and bypass make-up air system (L.J. Wings FAS) in 1933,
and the first rotating discharge nozzle in 1939.
During World War II, L.J. Wings total manufacturing capacity
was directed to the production of ventilating fans that were
used on virtually all Naval landing and cargo ships of that
period. After World War II, the L.J. Wing Company introduced
the first Integral Face and Bypass Constant Volume Coil in
1961; the Vari-jet discharge in 1963; Gas Assembly Heaters
with mounting heights over 100 feet in 1965; the Genex in 1985
(the first rotary heat exchanger indirect fired gas heater); and
the Door Air Curtains in 1998.

SOUND POWER LEVELS -
dbA
Note: These sound levels are based on the following assumptions:
1)
Backward inclined fan(s)
2)
Source of noise at recommended mounting height. Microphone 5' from floor.
3)
Greatest noise would be directly under the heater.
4)
Sound absorption coefficients: Floor - 0.01, Walls - 0.10, Ceiling (with fiberglass) - 0.20.
5)
No background noise.
Notes:
1.
Based on a two row, 5 FPI coil and 5 PSIG steam pressure at the coil.
2.
For higher steam pressures, the surface area will be reduced to produce same performance.
Notes:
1.
Based on a two row, 8 FPI coil and 200
° EWT at the coil with 20° drop. See table on next page for performance with other conditions.
2.
For higher water temperatures, the surface area will be reduced to produce same performance.

SELECTION GUIDE
10
Truss thermostats are used to control the discharge air
temperature of gas heaters by turning on or off individual
furnaces based on inlet air temperatures.
A truss thermostat is mounted and wired on the inlet duct. It
has a bulb type sensor that is fixed to the outside of the unit.
In this manner, high temperature air stratified in the truss
can be redistributed to the working levels when the need for
it exists - without burner operation. Process heat, normally
wasted, can be economically put to use.
Also, discharge temperatures can be effectively maintained to
assure optimum projection. Elevated truss temperatures will
increase discharge temperatures. Extremely high tempera-
ture air is light weight therefore difficult to project from high
mounting heights.

Here is a typical four truss thermostat set up:

To apply Wing High Mounted Heaters for aircraft hangers
and very large buildings it is most desirable to have a
heating system with a rapid recovery rate since the
opening of the large hanger doors in cold weather cause a
rapid draining of heat from the building.
While todays building designs and improved insulating
materials have reduced BTUH requirements, the first step
in selection process should be the building Heat Loss
Calculation, using ASHRAE Fundamental Guide or other
methods available.
The next step is to look at individual unit heating capacities
and published
