Functional description

Ceiling swirl diffusers allow the supply air from ventilation systems to flow into the room in a swirl pattern. 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. Ceiling swirl diffusers allow for large volume flow rates. The result is a mixed flow ventilation in comfort zones, with good overall room ventilation, creating only very little turbulence in the occupied zone.

Type RFD ceiling swirl diffusers have fixed blades. Air discharge is horizontal with an omni-directional flow. The supply air to room air temperature difference may range from –12 to +10 K.

A damper blade (optional) simplifies volume flow rate balancing for commissioning. Pressure tap and cord-operated damper blade (optional) allow for volume flow rate balancing with the diffuser face in place.

To give rooms an aesthetic, uniform look, Type RFD diffusers may also be used for extract air.
