Functional description
Ceiling diffusers direct the air from air conditioning systems into the room. The resulting airflow induces high levels of room air, thereby rapidly reducing the airflow velocity and the temperature difference between supply air and room air. Ceiling diffusers allow for large volume flow rates. The result is a mixed flow ventilation in comfort zones, with good overall room ventilation, creating only very little turbulence in the occupied zone.
Type DLQ ceiling diffusers have fixed blades. Horizontal air discharge is four-way. The supply air to room air temperature difference may range from –10 to +10 K.
To give rooms an aesthetic, uniform look, Type DLQ diffusers may also be used for extract air.
Nominal sizes | 250, 300, 400, 500, 600, 625 mm |
Minimum volume flow rate | 20 – 250 l/s or 72 – 900 m³/h |
Maximum volume flow rate, with LWA ≅ 50 dB(A) | 575 – 700 l/s or 2070 – 2520 m³/h |
Supply air to room air temperature difference | –10 to +10 K |
Quick sizing tables provide a good overview of the volume flow rates and corresponding sound power levels and differential pressures.
The maximum volume flow rates apply to a sound power level of approx. 50 dB (A).
Exact values for all parameters can be determined with our Easy Product Finder design programme.

Installation and commissioning
These are only schematic diagrams to illustrate installation details.
Volume flow rate balancing
When several diffusers are connected to just one volume flow controller, it may be necessary to balance the volume flow rates.
Volume flow rate measurement
Ceiling diffusers with universal plenum box, damper blade and pressure tap (variant -MN) allow for volume flow rate balancing even with the diffuser face in place.
A characteristic is included with each AK-Uni plenum box.
