Functional description
Staircase swirl diffusers in air conditioning systems create a swirl to supply air to rooms. The resulting airflow induces high levels of room air, thereby rapidly reducing the airflow velocity and the temperature difference between supply air and room air. Staircase swirl diffusers supply the air directly to the occupied zone and even to individual room occupants. The result is mixed flow ventilation for comfort zones and an excellent air quality in the occupied zone.
Type SDRF staircase swirl diffusers have fixed blades. Air discharge parallel to the installation surface. The supply air to room air temperature difference may range from –6 to +6 K.
Nominal sizes | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 outlets |
Minimum volume flow rate | 2 – 12 l/s or 7 – 43 m³/h |
Maximum volume flow rate | 5 – 25 l/s or 18 – 90 m³/h |
Supply air to room air temperature difference | –6 to +6 K |
Quick sizing tables provide a good overview of the volume flow rates and corresponding sound power levels and differential pressures.
