 Nozzle Diffusers | 3 / 20

Description
CAP-G is a multi-nozzle diffuser with a backing box, mainly intended for air supply in comfort ventilation systems
for offices, shops, medical rooms, school classrooms, etc., installed in plaster board false ceiling.

Highlights
• Versatile adjustability of air discharge patterns
• Excellent air induction and mixing even with small air flow volumes, fit for VAV ventilation
• High air flow capacity with low noise and moderate pressure drop
• Compact design

Fig. 1: Air flow visualisation

4 / 20 | Nozzle Diffusers

Design
The CAP-G body is made from galvanized steel, composed of the backing box with a vertically oriented rubber gasket
sealed circular connection and diffuser plate with polymer nozzles, attached by spring clips.
The nozzles can be rotated by 360° in the plane of the diffuser plate. The proper directional adjustment
of the individual nozzles results in the desired air discharge pattern. For the installation of the diffuser, there are holes
in the backing frame for screws to fix in the false ceiling board

Accessory
THOR
Plenum Box

Description
The THOR plenum box is used together with air diffusers for pressure reduction, airflow balancing and sound
attenuation as well as for measuring and adjusting the air flow. The standard air flow measurement accuracy
is preserved also when the straight duct length in front of the inlet is zero (directly behind Tee or Elbow piece
in the duct). The plenum box can be used for air inlet and extract.

Design
THOR plenum boxes are manufactured from hot-dip galvanized sheet steel with inlet connection sleeve fitted
with a rubber seal tested for air-tightness. The inlet is equipped by the ZEUS damper with impulse tubes for measuring
differential pressure for flow volume calculation, using a portable measuring device. It can be adjusted manually using
a cable gearing.
