WPL100 Vertical Louvre Selection

The WPL100 Vertical Louvre is an all aluminium model ideal for vertical applications.

Example: To select a louvre to exhaust 1.8m³/s with a pressure drop of 20Pa.

Step One:

From the Performance Chart, select the Pressure Drop of 20 Pa. Plot across to the exhaust curve. Then plot down to the indicated free Area Velocity e.g. 2.6 m/s.

Step Two:

Calculate the required Free Are of the louvre.
Free Area = Volume Flow Rate/Free Area Velocity
Free Area = 1.8 (m³/s)/2.6 (m/s) = 0.69 (m²⁾

Step Three:

Select a suitable louvre from the Free Area (m²) table. Some suitable louvres from the Free Area Table are:

1.175m wide x 1.250m high
2.456m wide x 0.600m high
1.968m wide x 0.750m high
0.748m wide x 2.000m high
