Product catalog summary
Overview
Aldes, a prominent French manufacturer, offers a wide range of circular ductwork solutions, including galvanised steel, aluminium, stainless steel, and insulated options. The catalogue details the advantages, production, storage, and installation of these products.
Specifications
Ductwork is available in various materials and diameters, adhering to EN 15-06 standards for sizing and tolerances. Galvanised steel ducts range from 80 mm to 1250 mm in diameter, with aluminium and stainless steel options also available.
Advantages of Circular Ductwork
Circular ductwork is preferred for its lower pressure losses, reduced leakage, better acoustic properties, greater mechanical resistance, and easier maintenance compared to rectangular ductwork. It is also cost-effective in terms of supply and installation.
Production and Storage
Aldes operates multiple production sites and warehouses across France, ensuring product availability. The company complies with ISO 9001-2000 standards, ensuring quality in raw materials and finished products.
Installation Guidelines
Installation involves interlocking ducts and accessories, with mechanical fastening using screws or rivets. Airtight seals are achieved using accessories with seals or appropriate sealants, complying with EN 12097 standards.
Standards and Regulations
Products comply with European standards, including EN 10327 and EN 10142 for galvanised steel, ensuring consistent quality and performance. Materials are classified as A1 for fire resistance.
Pressure Loss and Equivalences
The catalogue includes tables for calculating pressure losses in circular ducts and provides equivalences between rectangular and circular ductwork, aiding in the selection of appropriate duct sizes for specific airflow requirements.
Corrosion Resistance
Galvanised steel offers strong resistance to atmospheric corrosion but is sensitive to acidic and saline environments. The durability of the zinc coating is crucial for maintaining corrosion resistance.
Field of Application
Ductwork is suitable for all air distribution systems, designed for easy assembly using interlocking parts, compliant with EN standards 1506 and 12237, and classified as A1 for fire resistance.
Product Range
The document lists various products, including circular ducts, connectors, and bends, with specifications such as diameter, weight, and code for ordering. It includes details on male and female connectors, inspection connectors, flexible sleeves, and various types of bends.
Key Advantages
The ductwork offers uniform quality of galvanisation, non-oiled ducts, and compliance with quality standards. The new generation of fan-ductwork sleeves is highlighted for its quick installation, airtightness, and durability.
Corrosion Resistance
The document provides a chart showing the thickness of galvanisation coating and its expected years of protection against rust in different atmospheric conditions.
Installation
Installation involves using interlocking parts, with ducts being female and accessories male. The document details the use of various connectors and bends to facilitate assembly and direction changes in ductwork.
Standards Compliance
The document mentions compliance with fire rating Class M0 and other standards, ensuring safety and performance in various applications.
Performance Characteristics
The catalogue highlights the advantages of the ductwork, including reduced dimensions for high airflows, controlled pressure loss, and easy fitting and servicing. It also provides data on negative pressure ratings and the impact of different atmospheric conditions on the longevity of the galvanised coating.
Technical Details
Detailed technical information is provided for various components, including T-pieces, Y-branches, dampers, and connectors. Each component is described with its specific field of application, installation instructions, and performance benefits.
Insulated Ductwork and Insulation Overview
Designed for air distribution in heating and air conditioning systems within commercial and industrial premises, these products offer built-in thermal-acoustic insulation and can be connected circularly using specific spigots.
Product Description
The panels are composed of multiple layers including aluminium films and glass wool, providing a fire rating of class A2 s1 d0. They are designed for continuous use at temperatures up to 80°C, with airspeeds of 20 m/s and pressures of 800 Pa.
Installation and Use
Panels should be scored with micro-serrated blades and handled by their edges. They must be stored in sheltered locations. The installation process involves tracing, scoring, folding, stapling, and sealing with adhesive aluminium tape to ensure airtightness.
Advantages
These ducts are quick to install, easy to clean, and provide low pressure loss. They also ensure high air quality and comply with fire safety standards.
Insulation Products
Mineral wool rolls and compact insulation rolls are available for thermal insulation of ductwork. The mineral wool roll has a thermal resistance of 0.67 m2K/W and is compliant with RT 2005 thermal regulations.
Accessories
A range of accessories is available, including circular spigots, connection clips, profiles, and tools for panel cutting and assembly. These accessories facilitate the installation and ensure the mechanical and airtight integrity of the ductwork.
Standards Compliance
All products comply with relevant fire safety and thermal insulation standards, ensuring safe and efficient operation in HVAC systems.
Technical Specifications for Ductwork
Applies to new CMEV installations in residential buildings, detailing materials, diameters, and thicknesses for ducts.
Field of Application
The rules apply to the installation of new CMEV systems in residential buildings, including humidity-controlled systems, for new constructions, retrofits, or restorations.
Design Rules
Connection ducts can share a connection duct if they are in the same dwelling. Acoustic design considerations are necessary to prevent phonic transmissions between dwellings.
Fire Safety in Residential Buildings
Ducts and flues must maintain fire resistance properties when penetrating walls or floors. Specific fire ratings are required based on building type.
Servicing CMEV and Gas CMEV Systems
Building owners must ensure periodic inspection and servicing of CMEV systems, including cleaning, inspection, and verification of system components.
RT 2005 Thermal Regulations
Airflows must meet minimum health and safety regulations, with adjustments for uncertainties in grille characteristics and ductwork leakage.
Heating and Insulation Requirements
When air is heated above the set temperature, specific insulation requirements apply to ductwork. For ducts inside heated rooms, thermal resistance must be ≥ 0.6 m²K/W.
Fire Protection Ratings
Products classified as A1 or A1FL must be made from specific materials like iron, steel, or rock wool, with adhesive content ≤ 0.1% by weight or volume.
Air Distribution Standards
NF EN 1506 specifies dimensions for circular ducts in ventilation systems. Tolerances for duct diameters are detailed in a table, ensuring proper fit and function.
Resistance and Airtightness
NF EN 12237 outlines specifications for duct resistance and airtightness. Ducts must withstand specified pressures without deformation, and airtightness must meet class-specific limits.
Maintenance Access Requirements
NF EN 12097 requires access panels for duct maintenance, with specific dimensions for rigid and flexible ducts. Components like dampers and filters must be accessible for cleaning.
Performance Requirements
EN 13779 covers ventilation system design for non-residential buildings, emphasizing airtightness to prevent power losses and ensure airflow control.
Ductwork Supports
NF EN 12236 specifies construction and installation of duct supports, requiring a safety coefficient of at least 3 for structural fastening.
Acoustic Regulations
Acoustic comfort is ensured by limiting sound pressure levels. Noise sources from ventilation systems include external noise, crosstalk, vibrational noise, and regenerated noise. Proper design and insulation are crucial to meet acoustic requirements.
