Application

Any application requiring permanent large-scale ventilation combined with screening, for example air inlet and exhaust for ventilation or air conditioning systems, plant rooms, lift motor rooms, generators and pumping stations.

Description

High-performance weather louvre combining low airflow resistance with maximum rain rejection.


Features and benefits:

  • Free area: 47%.
  • Blade pitch: 75 mm.
  • Louvres provide high rainwater rejection combined with high airflow rate up to A2 performance classification, assured by independent testing by BSRIA.
  • This operates at better performance than many double-bank systems, achieved at a lower cost and a smaller system depth.
  • The design is aesthetically pleasing and the gutter directs rejected rain to avoid a cascade effect.
  • All components are extruded aluminium for long life with good corrosion resistance.
  • Integrated single and double doors available or as a stand alone component.
  • Mitre cuts available to maintain the continuous appearance.
  • Optional bird/ insect guards and blanking plates.


Standard versions also available, consult manufacturer for details.
