INTRODUCTION 
Ceiling diffusers are the excellent choice for HVAC system where a high standard of comfort indoor air 
quality and controlled performance are to be achieved. COSMOS ceiling diffusers are specially designed 
for ceiling‐mounting applications. They are suitable for supply air as well as exhaust air, providing a 
stable pattern of air diffusion, flowing through a number of concentrically arranged sections. 

Controlled air distribution, flow equalization, sound attenuation, architectural appearance and solid 
construction are all reasonable and worthwhile reasons to choose COSMOS CEILING DIFFUSERS. 

  
                       Model: SQL‐4                                             Model: RTL‐4       
 

COSMOS ceiling diffusers are designed to handle a wide range of horizontal airflows that will meet all 
HVAC requirements, and yet with a pleasing appearance to suit architectural requirements. 

An engineered blade design on all angular discharge louvers creates a stable horizontal air pattern that 
is tight to the ceiling. Corners of outer cores are mechanically fastened to provide precisely mitered 
corners and add strength to the diffuser. 

COSMOS ceiling diffusers are available in square (SQL) or rectangular (RTL) patterns for supply air as well 
as for return air and which in turn is supplied with or without opposed blade damper. When supply with 
opposed blade damper ( for supply air diffuser ), damper is fixed to the outer frame of the diffuser  and 
is screw operated from the face of the diffuser. The damper frame is separated from its blades by using 
nylon bushings to eliminate corrosion and vibration. 
COSMOS ceiling diffusers SQL and RTL are multi‐vane type with a fully removable core from its face for 
easy installation, with square neck and can be supplied in 1, 2, 3 and 4 way airflow patterns for all air 
distribution requirement. 

Different frame types are available to suit almost any mounting condition including surface mount and   
T‐bar panel types. Ceiling diffuser is also available with an extended frame to suit the size of ceiling tile 
thus models offer a great degree of design flexibility. 

Diffusers are available with wide variety of core styles and neck sizes. A combination can be selected to 
suit a specified air pattern and deliver the desired volume of air to suit any particular requirements.

• Engineered air distribution patterns for 1, 2, 3 and 4 way blow in a wide selection of square and 
rectangular neck sizes.

difference between the combined NC level of the first

two units and the NC level of the third unit.

Determine the NC addition as above, and add this to

the combined NC level of the first two units. If the

difference between NC levels of two units is 10 db or

more, the sound generated by the quieter unit will

not affect the space NC.

Example : Two supply diffusers having an NC level of

30 and a return grille having a NC level of 35 serve a

room. What is the combined NC level generated?

Solution : The return has the highest NC level, 35 db.

The second highest is one of the diffusers at 30 db.

The difference between them is 5 db. From Table 5,

the NC addition for a 5 db difference is about one.

Adding this to the higher NC gives a combined NC of

36.

To take the second diffuser into consideration, follow

the same procedure as above. The NC calculated

above is 36. The NC of the diffuser is 30. The

difference between them is 6. The NC addition for

this difference is 1 and the combined effect of the two

supply diffusers and the return grille is NC 37.
