Functional description

The attenuation effect of the RKA splitters is due to resonance.

The splitter surface that runs parallel to the airflow is covered with resonating panels. These panels start oscillating due to the sound (resonance) and hence absorb sound energy. Resonance works best in the frequency range of critical fan noise. The splitters have a mineral wool infill that prevents an amplification of the sound.

  • Installation details
  • Basic information and nomenclature

Installation and commissioning

  • Splitters are supplied as ready-to-install kits
  • Follow the installation information and comply with the general codes of good practice in order to achieve the given performance data
  • Up to height H = 1200 mm: any installation orientation, but we recommend upright installation of splitters
  • From height H = 1201 mm: upright installation only
  • The length (L) of sound attenuator splitters and splitter sound attenuators refers to the airflow direction; be sure to note how width, height and length are defined, particularly in case of a vertical airflow
  • Installation in ducts outside of closed rooms requires sufficient protection against the effects of weather
