ESC - "E" Series Louvre - Aluminium Louvres

ESC is an extruded Single Bank Louvre System designed for screening or cladding applications and ventilation application when rain defence is not critical. For rain defence applications, see ERD, 2UL or 3UL.

It may be combined with other Colt products such as rooflights and glazed facades.

See 1UL for an alternative single bank 50mm pitch extruded louvre system.

Options

These decorative finish options are available:

  • Mill Finish
  • Stoved Polyester Powder Paint
  • Anodised (aluminium)

The applied finishes can be supplied in two coverage levels:

  • Total (all principal components)
  • Partial (front louvres and frames only).

There are a large selection of optional accessories such as:

  • Mitred Corners
  • Blanking Panels
  • Special Shapes
  • Acoustic Modules
  • Guards (bird/ insect*/ security)
  • Doors
  • Turrets

* With Insect Mesh, the design should allow for additional resistance to airflow and reduced flow rate performance.

Performance specification

The louvre system achieves minimum performance coefficients (Cv) of 0.27 (inlet) and 0.26 (extract). These have been established as the result of full-scale wind tunnel tests.

Single bank louvres are ideally applied in sheltered locations or where rain penetration may be acceptable. The louvre system achieves Class D1 when tested at all velocities to EN 13030:2001.

Features and benefits

Corrosion resistant aluminium

High range of options

Louvres are not drilled but clipped and not riveted or screwed to structural supporting mullions, to allow for thermal expansion without distortion along their length.
