DIFFUSER: An outlet discharging supply air in multiple layers with a spreading pattern. DAMPER _: A device used to control the volume of air passing through a duct /or air outlet by varying the cross sectional area. REGISTER: A grille which is equipped with a damper. ASPECT RATIO : The ratio of the long side to the short side of a duct section/or air outlet. + A measure of volume of air in cubic feet per minute VELOCITY (Vi) : The velocity in feet per minute is the velocity measured with an Alnor velometer and 2220 jet on the face of the outlet ‘TERMINAL VELOCITY (¥)) : The velocity IN FPM of the air stream at the throw (T) from the air outlet. ‘Values from 75 to 200 FPM are in common use. EFFECTIVE AREA (Ax) : The calculated area of an outlet based on the average measured velocity at the face vk. THROW + The distance measured in feet that the air stream travels from the outlet to the point of terminal velocity DROP + The vertical distance the air moves between the time it leaves the outlet and the time it reaches the end of its throw. INDUCTION : Induction is the entrainment of room air by the air ejected from the outlet and in result of the velocity of the outlet air. The air coming directly from the outlet primary air. The room air, which is picked - up, is called secondary air. The entire stream composed of a mixture of primary and secondary air. WALL/ CEILING EFFECT ; The tendency of an air stream moving along wall or ceiling surface to remain in contact with that surface. This effect extends the throw and reduces the drop of the air stream. STATIC PRESSURE (P,) : The outward force exerted by the air within a duct and /or collar of an air outlet device measured in inches of water . VELOCITY PRESSURE (Py) : The pressure in inches of water equated to a velocity that exists for a given air volume in the duct and/or air outlet collar area. TOTAL PRESSURE (P,) : The sum of the velocity pressure (Pv) and si of water. SOUND POWER LEVEL (LW) : The total sound created by a grille under a specific condition of operation not including specific room acoustic absorption value reductions per frequency octave band. ‘The basis of LW must be stated re 10" watts, or 10°" watts. SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL (LP) : Sound pressure measured in the test room or occupied room with a sound level meter referenced to. 0002 microbar. Sound pressure may be measured in octave band with octave band analyzer or total sound pressure in all octaves can be measured. NOISE CRITERIA : The air outlet device sound rating in pressure level at given condition of operation based on established criteria and specific room acoustic absorption value. Catalog NC rating are base ‘on sound power level (LW) re 10" watts minus An 18-db room attenuation in all octave bands. ic pressure (Ps) measured in inches aSQUARE & RECTANGULAR CEILING DIFFUSERS ‘Supply diffusers are recommended for heating, ventilating and cooling, and. for irregularly space conditions Requiring directional air diffusion patterns. Removable snap-in directional cores provide 4,3,2 or 1- way horizontal air diffusion patterns on ceiling applications. High diffusion induction rates result in rapid temperature and velocity equalization of the mixed air mass well above the zone of occupancy. The reliable performance of the multi-directional pattern air diffusers assures confident use of cooling temperature differentials of 25°F and greater, at predicted low air motion (35 fpm) in the zone of occupancy. Supply diffuser perform efficiently with air loadings from 6 to 20 air changes per hour (based on 10 ft. ceiling height), and sound level range of NC 25 to 35, FEATURES : = Removal Snap-in directional cores for 4,3,2 or 1 - way diffusion pattern provide accesses to accessories and connecting duct and are interchangeable in the field in the same size in any margin style. = Supply Diffusers are equipped with flat overlap margins designed to cover ceiling opening and minimize smudging, © Diffusers screw-fasten to connecting duct collar for tight adjustment of margins = Diffusers are available with optional countersunk screw holes for fastening through the face. © Diffusers and accessories are manufactured of extruded aluminum. = Baked white enamel or satin anodized finish for diffusers other colors are available as option.

TABLE 3 : NC AND TOTAL PRESSURE (P,) FACTORS FOR DAMPERS Damper opening % ‘Total pressure drop multiplier ‘NC addition to diffuser rating 100 110 0 AD 116 #1 25 x27 +15; Closing the damper of ceiling diffuser does two things. Itrestrics the flow of ar, thereby increasing the pressure drop and decreasing the cfm. In doing these things, the damper also generated sound which lead to increase the NC level. Table above shows the NC addition of throttled dampers. tt@ Zamzam ‘ir Quality Pals ENGINEERING DATA HOW TO SELECT, SIZE AND BALANCING SELECTION PROCEDURE: ‘The area to be served by a diffuser should be divided into equal squares It is not necessary to locate outlet in the center of discharge area, since 3 - way, 2- way and I~ way pattern style can be used to compensate for other location 1- way opposite pattern style may be used for rectangular areas such as corridors. SIZING PROCEDURE : 1- After selecting pattern style of diffuser show on page-3 required to properly cover the area to be conditioned, itis then necessary to be sure the outlet has been sized in accordance with length of throw, static pressure, velocity, and sound level to prevent any increase in environmental sound level from the diffuser and jts accessories, 2. Using CFM per outlet as selected in method described in “Selection Procedure” above and select NC level from table 1 or recommended maximum V« velocity from table 2 suitable for type of occupancy. 3 Select the proper size of diffuser from engineering performance data page 4 thru 10 to meet your requirement. 4- If sizes other than those published are desired, consult factory. 5- Total pressure is indicated on performance data pages which is equal to sum of neck velocity pressure plus static pressure required. BALANCING PROCEDURE : FOR SQUARE AND RECTANGULAR DIFFUSERS : To determine CFM use an Alnor Velometer with jet 2220-A tip positioned as shown in fig. 1. Take readings at points shown by dots (figures 2 through 6) on all active discharge sides. On larger sizes, over 24 x 24, take at least tow or three readings per active side and average the total readings to arrive at jet velocity Vx After selecting the proper Ax value from the engineering performance data page 4 thru 10, multiply the average velocity times the Ay to determine CFM.
