Chilled beams combine radiant cooling with conventional overhead ventilation to:
- reduce energy usage,
- improve comfort levels,
- and reduce the architectural impact of ductwork and other mechanical systems.
A chilled beam system is designed for use in non-residential applications where there is a high temperature load and/or rooms that require individual comfort control. FläktGroup SEMCO’s chilled beams are designed to manage high cooling capacity by using a primary air supply, typically outdoor air, to increase airflow over the element. The primary air is then supplied to the room through diffusers built into the beam. Many of our beams have a patented system for adjusting airflow, cooling effect and airflow pattern and can be adapted to suit the changing conditions of any given space.
