MEMBRANE DIFFUSER

We often face a requirement of cooling and heating using one system. However, the way of distribution of air must be completely different for both regimes to provide effective heating and draught-free cooling. This contradictory requirements can be resolved using a membrane diffuser that is divided horizontally in the centre using thin impermeable textile - membrane. This membrane can cover (and thus put out of operation) the upper or lower longitudinal half of the diffuser. The upper part is designed to diffuse air, the lower part is designed to direct high-speed air flow downwards. The delivery also includes a special flap with a servomotor that allows switching over between both regimes of air distribution.
Two kinds of diffuser are combined in one product. A membrane, which is made of flimsy impermeable fabric, is sewed horizontally in the centre of a diffuser. The beginning of the membrane is attached to a flap controlled by a servomotor. It covers either the top or the bottom half of the diffuser. While heating, the membrane covers the top half of the diffuser and the air is diffusing through the row of openings downwards. The membrane covers the bottom half of the diffuser and the air is diffusing upwardly through permeable fabric / fabric modified by means of microperforation while air-cooling.
THE FLAP: Is used to switch over between the two modes. The flap is made of PMS or PMI fabric
(according to fire resistance), inner construction is made of galvanized steel. The length
is 400 mms always.
The flap D<=630 mm is hung in 1 point, the flap D>630 mm is hung in 2 points.
The main purpose of a membrane diffuser is to adjust the air flow to the heating or cooling mode. The diffuser is not destined for temperature regulation at a work place, which should be primarily regulated by a heat supply control. The transition of the flap position lasts cca. 140 seconds. Because the membrane vibrates intensely while being displaced, the frequency of transitions should be limited to the needful minimum. We recommend to condition the transition act by a certain temperature difference. E.g. When the supply air is colder than the air in the room, the air flow should be altered from the rectified current to the diffused one by means of the flap. Proper hysteresis e.g. 2 - 3 °C can reduce the frequency of transitions to the minimum. The supplier will take account of possible inobservance of the recommendation in case of complaint procedure.
