Grille & diffuser range Plenum boxes Series P lthough not a grille or diffuser, plenum boxes are just as integral in the majority of ventilation systems. Fire rated plenum boxes are available. Grille & diffuser options Polyester powder coating The majority of grilles and diffusers shown in the catalogue can be polyester powder coated to any RL or S colour. Some products cannot be powder coated due to plastic parts etc. Please see the table. Nylon coating specialist finish, nylon coating is used in favour of polyester coating where extreme durability or resistance to static electricity build up is needed. These qualities mean computer room floor grilles are often nylon coated, as static electricity build-ups in data centres can be disasterous. Opposed blade dampers Fitted to the rear of many grilles and diffusers, opposed blade dampers are used to trim the airflow through the terminal. Suitable for use in supply or extract situations.

coustic louvres Series L Using a two part hollow aluminium blade forming a cavity which is then filled with mineral wool, acoustic louvres prevent noise transfer without impeding airflow. vailable in 150mm, 300mm (standard) and 600mm deep models. Sand trap louvres Series STL esigned to be the first stage of filtration, sand trap louvres catch and collect airbourne particles like sand and grit which would otherwise clog up finer filters inside the ventilation system. SRI testing to S EN 13181:2001 Tested by SRI to S EN 13181:2001, sand trap louvres have been proven over 90% effective at 0.5m/s wind velocity, and over 60% effective at 1 m/s wind velocity. onstructed from two banks of interlocking vertical channels, all straight paths through the unit are eliminated. ny caught material then falls onto the slanted cill and is ejected through the front of the louvre. 15
External louvre range High performance louvres - lass Series HPL With the addition of two banks of vertical channels behind a standard louvre, high performance louvres have been tested to confirmed to give lass levels of rain protection at velocities up to 0.5m/s. The channels prevent any straight path through the unit, catching any rain or spray which made it past the louvre blades. This caught water then falls onto a special slanted drip cill which quickly ejects it through the louvre face. Penthouse louvres Series PHL ommonly used in natural ventilation systems, penthouse louvres are perfect for high efficiency installations, like the new generation of school buildings and hospitals. lass Penthouse Louvres can be manufactured using the same blade arrangement as high performance louvres shown above. Options include: oors. Internal dividers (insulated or un-insulated). Flat, single slant, double slant and HIP roofs. 16
External louvre options Polyester powder coating ll louvres shown in the catalogue can be polyester powder coated to any RL or S colour. Nylon coating specialist finish, nylon coating is used in favour of polyester coating where extreme durability or resistance to static electricity build up is needed. Fixing methods lthough normally drilled on site, louvres can be supplied with face fixing holes in the flange, or rear mounted fixing lugs. ird mesh Screwed to the back of louvre blades, bird mesh prevents large objects like leaves, rubbish and birds being able to penetrate the louvre. ird mesh has no real effect on airflow. Insect mesh With much smaller gaps than bird mesh, insect mesh prevents all but the smallest objects penetrating the louvre. The vast majority of insects and debris are caught. Insect mesh will reduce a louvre s free area. 17

Plastic dampers for natural ventilation Overview Ultra high shut off Excellent corrosion resistance The revolutionary upv Volume control damper incorporates a copyrighted and never before seen feature for a plastic volume damper. It s unprecedented performance originates with the unique Eccentric erofoil blade design. This unieu, incorporates a blade with an off centre axis. This enables the edge seal to be complete, and uninterrupted by blade axles. ombine this with the integrated, specially designed blade nose seal which fuses the blades together on closure, a performance emulating that of a full shut off damper is achieved, whilst still providing the excellent functionality of a traditional volume control damper. upv volume control damper showing total seal Specifications: orrosion resistance Precision linkage Materials: Extruded upv frame and blades. Integrated flexible plastic blade nose seals. rush side seals. Rolled steel section inside each blade for reinforcement (not exposed to airstream). In coastal or swimming pool applications, traditional steel dampers will corrode very quickly. upv on the other hand has excellent resistance to salt and chlorine, and cannot rust. Manufactured from highly corrosion resistant materials, the custom designed gearset is so precise it can drive up to 10 blades and cogs with very limited play, for maximum performance even at large sizes. Stainless steel screws to join frame (not exposed to airstream). Finish: White. Sizes: Minimum size 300mm x 300mm / 300mm Ø. Maximum size 1000mm x 1000mm / 1000mm Ø. bove these sizes units would be made in sections. 20

Ultra high shut off In independent tests, large format upv volume control dampers yielded leakage results normally only achieved by dedicated shut off dampers. The V sent for testing had a nominal size of 1000mm x 806mm, the large size tantamount to our confidence in the damper. With even 10Pa rarely being exceeded in natural ventilation situations, it is clear how upv volume control dampers can enhance the efficiency of your new natural ventilation system.
