Universal Louvre 2UL/SH
Universal Louvre 2UL/SH
A double‑bank roll‑formed or extruded louvre system delivering high airflow and improved rain protection – suitable for plant rooms and facade screening.
Application
Suitable in applications such as:
- Rooftop plant room enclosures.
- Air intake louvres for HVAC and ventilation systems.
- Industrial and commercial buildings needing both airflow and rain defence.
- Architectural facades requiring concealed or integrated drainage.
Description
Colt 2UL is a versatile double‑bank louvre system offering a balance of enhanced rain defence and strong airflow performance. Available in shallow (50 mm) or deep (100 mm) blade pitches, it’s suitable for plant room screening and architectural facades. It features concealed drainage via hollow mullions and a clip‑on design for thermal movement, it delivers durable, maintenance‑free performance in challenging weather conditions.
Features and benefits:
- Double‑bank blade design boosts rain defence while maintaining airflow.
- Available in 50 mm or 100 mm blade pitch for design flexibility.
- Integral drainage into vertical mullions improves weather resilience.
- Clip‑on blade construction accommodates thermal movement, simplifies install.
- Corrosion‑resistant aluminium, galvanized steel, or stainless materials.
- Supports architectural integration with accessories like guards and panels.
Performance ratings:
- Rain defence classification: Class A to Class D depending on air velocity (tested to BS EN 13030:2001).
- Aerodynamic classification: Class 3 (Cv approx. 0.21).
- Airflow resistance: Low to moderate resistance with enhanced weather protection.
- Free area: 57% (varies by size and pitch) using industry standard measurement.
Materials and finishes:
- Materials:
- Aluminium (standard – corrosion-resistant).
- Mild or galvanized steel or stainless steel (custom options).
- Finish iptions:.
- Mill finish.
- Polyester powder-coated to standard RAL colours.
- Anodized aluminium.
