• A safe and effective ventilation system is vital in underground tunnels and stations or in railway tunnels: in normal situations, the ventilation system is responsible for renewing the air and controlling the temperature at the stations; in exceptional cases, such as when a fire breaks out, the system must ensure the evacuation routes are free from smoke, ensuring safe and breathable air.  Zitron uses specialised software and the largest Test Bench of its kind in the world which, together with the experience and know-how of its experts, addresses each project individually to offer the safest and most efficient solution.
  
• The main European safety regulations require the installation of ventilation systems for tunnels > 1,000 m. In the case of shorter tunnels, a detailed study must be conducted based on each particular case: diameter, perimeter, slope, traffic volume. Zitrón develops its ventilation systems within the particular parameters of each project to offer the most effective and safest solution, always guaranteeing a breathable air supply even under the most adverse conditions. Axial fans designed to work in both directions; ventilation channels and chambers; manual or remote ventilation control; safety modules… A challenge. A solution.

Zitron fans are in use in many countries of the world: Spain, Argentina, Bhutan, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, France, Greece, India, Iran, Madeira, Pakistan, Peru and Turkey etc. 

The Zitron reference list for jet fans in tunnels is long: for a full list of fans supplied over the last ten years, visit the Zitron website www.zitron.com.
