OVERVIEW KU OVERVIEW The KU diffusers with concentric cones are generally fitted in counter ceilings as they can be used in a wide range of commercial, work and industrial spaces with an installation height between 2,5 and 6 metres according to size and model. MODELS KU4 series model Fixed cone aluminium diffusers, painted silver RAL 9006 or RAL 9003 with epoxy powder, complete with regulation damper. These diffusers are used for installations between 2,6 and 4,1 metres maximum. The diffuser is fixed laterally using screws to the connection piece of the duct or plenum and using the supplied fixing bridge for use in counter ceilings. Available sizes: neck size 150, 200, 250, 300 and 350mm. Available versions: version painted silver RAL 9006 and white RAL 9003. Series KU5 KU6 KU8 The KU5 KU6 KU8 series diffusers are composed of a fixed external cone and central part composed of individually cones that can be adjusted individually and to a millimetre. The different position of the cones allows to vary the direction of the air flow, so as to obtain horizontal air flows (in cooling) or vertical air flows (in heating). These diffusers are installed at a height ranging from 2,6 to 6 meters in height. The diffuser is fixed laterally using screws to the connection piece of the duct or plenum, alternatively they can be fitter to counter ceilings using clips. The air flow regulation is made by rising or lowering each individual cone.

OVERVIEW KU 2 SEIRES OVERVIEW: The KU 2-5-6-8 series of diffusers are composed from an external containment cone and by a central adjustable section with cones that may be adjusted individually to the nearest millimetre. The different positioning of the round elements allows to vary the direction of the air to obtain combined or single are flows, both vertically or horizontally. For this reason, this supply air diffuser is ideal in all those applications where it is necessary to heat or cool. In the same way it can be used for the extraction of air from the room. The standard height of installation of the diffuser is between 2.6 and 6 metres. H Ø F Ø D Ø C INSTALLATION : The diffuser is fixed laterally using screws directly to the plenum's connection. Various clips are available to fix the diffuser to plaster board counter ceilings and versions with flat or lowered "fineline" panels for use in modular counter ceilings. Ø D REGULATION DAMPER: The KU8 series diffusers are supplied with a butterfly regulation damper adjustable using a screw-driver from the face side of the diffuser. The diffusers and some sizes of the KU6 series diffusers are available with a segmented regulation damper that can be adjusted once installed by acting on the central cone of the diffuser. The KU5 and KU6 diffusers may be supplied with a butterfly damper adjustable using a screw-driver from the face side of the diffuser.

VERSION WITH AUTOMATIC REGULATION WITH THERMOSTATIC SPRING CT The KU5 CT diffusers allow to automatically regulate the cones in the or position without the need of a technician. The work without any auxiliary power (e.g.. electrical power supply) and do not require any maintenance. The movement of the intermediate cones is controlled by means of a special shape remembering spring who's cycle of use determines the position of the cones in relations to the temperature. In this way the flow of air is controlled in relation to the temperature, enabling the intermediate cones to be always in the optimal position, both when in the cooling and heating faze. The memory spring varies its extension within a temperature range of 14 C and 40 C. The minimum lasting time of the spring is 100,000 cycles. A cycle is given from an extension followed by a compression of the spring. If, for example, we consider to be in the position to start the system in the morning and to turn it off in the evening, the spring will last o average about 270 years. The drawings shows the two positions at full extension and full compression of the spring, the 0% position in cooling conditions and 100% position i in heating conditions. i Externsion of the spring in relation to the temperature in the transition from cooling to heating U04-9

SELECTION SELECTION METHOD Using the diagram shown below it is possible to make a first selection of the diffuser on the basis of the air flow. Saying so, it is advised to verify, using the diagrams of the technical data shown in the following pages, the actual compliance of the choice made with the specific use intended for the diffuser. CONE REGULATION The technical data considers two regulation positions for the diffuser cones, "" and "". Summer regulation The regulation corresponds to the lowering of the central cones up to almost 15mm below the actual height of the ceiling. This regulation achieves a fresh air horizontal throw which, supported by the coanda effect, flows along the ceiling, gradually mixing with the air in the room therefore avoiding air currents forming with the occupied area. Winter regulation The regulation corresponds to the lifting of the central cones up to almost 15mm above the actual height of the ceiling. This regulation drives the hot air directly towards the occupied area, avoiding any different air temperature layers from forming.
