Model KCM

Circular Diffusers

INTRODUCTION
KMC Circular Diffusers have a circular cone with
elegant styling to provide maximum air diffusion
efficiency.

APPLICATION
Recommended for supply air, constant or variable
air volume heating, cooling, or ventilating

Efficient air distribution in cooling applications at

temperature differentials as high as 16° C

360° air pattern delivery maintains horizontal

pattern with or without ceiling effect

Expanding cone design provides excellent

horizontal air discharge preventing drafts in the
occupied zone

PRODUCT FEATURES
Removable inner core permits easy installation and
access to duct

Optional Butterfly Type Volume control damper

Powder Coated to RAL 9010 as standard

Custom colors available on request

Selection Procedure
Selections can be made by means of a straight
read-off from the “Performance Data” for the
selected model.

• Determine the air volume flow rate per outlet.

• Establish the required Throw (Refer Notes for

Throw Pattern)

• Select the diffuser based on required Air flow

rate against the limiting pressure drop and sound
level requirements.
