SoftflowTM Design Fabric Air Diffusers

SOFTFLOW air jets have less mass then POWERFLOW jets, so they diffuse quickly. The area of noticeable air movement typically ranges from 2-10′ beyond the diffuser. These smaller jets are also very efficient at entrapping air, and SOFTFLOW diffusers mix air efficiently over broad areas with little noticeable air movement. SoftFlow air jets range from 0.25″ to 0.75″ in diameter.

    Softflow Air Diffusers

    SOFTFLOW air jets have less mass then POWERFLOW jets, so they diffuse quickly. The area of noticeable air movement typically ranges from 2-10′ beyond the diffuser. These smaller jets are also very efficient at entrapping air, and SOFTFLOW diffusers mix air efficiently over broad areas with little noticeable air movement. SoftFlow air jets range from 0.25″ to 0.75″ in diameter.

    SOFTFLOW designs are used when it is necessary to reduce air jet turbulence or the area of significant air movement. People comfort or sensitive processes are typical considerations. Air delivered through SoftFlow air jets provide a gentle air flow. Typical applications are spaces where emphasis is on optimum air diffusion and mixing, creating comfortable and pleasing environments. The methodology of designing SOFTFLOW air diffusion systems is basically the same as POWERFLOW. Both static pressure and air jet port diameter are particularly critical to meeting air system objectives. Application recommendations include; Office space, telecommunications, Restaurant, Food processing, Auditorium, Pools, Church, and Classroom.

  • Suspension

    Cable

    Tension cable is the most economical option. Available for all diameters, Single cable up to 30″ diameter and double up to 48″ diameter and triple above that. Snaphooks are spaced on 36″ centers and available in plastic, stainless steel. Cable is available in galvanized, Stainless steel, and vinyl coated. The system consists of a cable (3/16″ diameter), turnbuckle, eyebolts and cable clamps.

    Halo Suspension

    New Halo Tension suspension system (HTS) gives the appearance of your FlowCon diffuser system to be inflated when the air handling system is off. This option can be used with a simple one row cable suspension or single HD rail to keep the FlowCon diffuser looking inflated without airflow. Limited from 10″ to 36″ diameter, this option is perfect for applications where deflated diffuser hand down is a problem. Sections can easily be taken down and washed with no extra labor. Components include standard one row tension cable or our HD single rail system.

    HD Rail:

    New HD anodized aluminum rail is our premium rail system. Sleek smooth look for our FlowCon fabric diffuser system. Available for all diameters, Single rail up to 30″ diameter and double up to 48″ diameter and triple above that. Gliders are spaced on 36″ centers and available in plastic. The system consists of HD rail, rail supports, couplers, and vertical supports (speed links). Radius bends are available to meet elbow radius.

    Flush Rail

    Flush anodized aluminum rail can be used for applications that FlowCon diffuser system has to be near ceiling. Flush rail has to be attached to a flat ceiling or T-Bar system. Flush mount rail is designed to support our ‘D’ Duct diffusers. D duct diffusers are used when ceiling height is a concern. A double Flush rail system is needed to support the ‘D’ duct diffuser. Sizes from 6″ to 18″ radius (12″ to 36″ wide) are available. The system consists of the Flush mount rail, and end piece. Radius bends are available.
