3 Description The recommended volume flow range is 8 to 25 l/s/m with a supply air temperature difference of up to ± 10 K. Because of their stable discharge characteristics, slot diffusers are suitable for use in systems with constant or variable volume air flows. The direction of air discharge can be adapted to the room conditions required. The air control blades are set as specified on the order. If the discharge direction has to be subsequently changed, this can easily be done by rotating the air control blades on site. The type VSD15 slot diffuser is ideal for use where suspended ceiling...

Construction · Dimensions · Materials 4 Construction The diffuser is supplied with the rear-mounted plenum box, which, if required, can be fitted with internal acoustic lining. The plenum has circular side entry spigot into which can, if required, be fitted volume control damper which can be adjusted from the diffuser face. The integral border, Z0, can be supplied for constructions A, F and D versions. Materials The diffuser face consists of aluminium extruded section. The visible surfaces of VSD15 are black (RAL 9005), powder coated. Visible surfaces of VSD15-Z0 natural anodised (E6-C-0). The...

5 Installation · Assembly Fig. 1 Slot diffusers of type VSD15 are also suitable for mounting onto the sides of light troffers. The method of fixing and components required must be agreed. All necessary provisions/components will then be supplied by Trox, i.e. inserts, clamping angles etc. Fig. 4 shows an example with clamping angle and threaded insert. Fig. 2 Standard installation of slot diffusers using 4 suspension brackets fitted to the plenum box. Fig. 3 When slot diffusers are to be installed in panelled ceilings with external radius R 10 mm, they can be mounted up to 7 mm above the ceiling...

Installation · Assembly 6 Fig. 7 The air flow rate can be adjusted from the diffuser face. The air control blade under the spigot should be rotated until the damper can be adjusted by a screwdriver or rod (max. 3.5 mm, approx. 100 mm long). The control blade can then be reset. Fig. 5 When slot diffusers are fitted in a linear format, connecting pins are used to align the front face. The connecting pins (2 per section) are first inserted into one section and then pushed halfway into the other section. Fig. 6 For an airtight seal on the first and last diffuser in a linear format, an end seal must...
