The art of handling air
For more than 60 years TROX has been the leading expert and innovator of high quality components and system solutions for ventilation and air conditioning. At TROX USA the person is our focus and TROX products are designed with energy-efficiency and better air quality in mind. Our aim is to create an environ-ment in which the individual has a sense of well-being. We also place the highest value on design and visual impact and offer architects the greatest freedom of choice in the development of air conditioning solutions. We have many years of experience and offer you the perfect HVAC solution for your project, from chilled beams to underfloor air distribution or displacement solutions. When meeting the performance and material criteria, TROX products can also contribute toward earning points for a LEED® certification.

The creative impulse of the architect combined with our pro-fessional air conditioning know-how – which is essential in complex buildings – fulfill the most rigorous requirements in terms of comfort, aesthetics, environmental friendliness and economic efficiency. TROX Air-Water Systems use the energy benefits of load dissipation by means of water. This combines high comfort and top-design with energy efficiency. Furthermore the option of multifunctionality: The chilled beam systems not only provide the normal heating, cooling and ventilation functions, but they can also be equipped with extra mechanical services, such as smoke detectors, lighting, loud-speakers and sprinkler systems.
They can simply do it all!

Chilled Beam System
Active Chilled Beams Type DID602
Chilled Beam System
Today, chilled beams are used in many modern buildings, in-cluding offices, schools and laboratories, and offer
energy-efficient solutions for the internal space ventilation and air conditioning.
There are a variety of installation possibilities for air-water systems, which means that, for almost every building, variants that meet the most demanding architectural requirements are available.
TROX USA supports the architect in the development of opti-mum room air distribution concepts for new buildings as well as for the refurbishment of existing buildings.

QLCI
The QLCI is a displacement chilled beam, commonly
in-stalled as an undersill unit and is a perfect solution for school and university classrooms.
Designers are not directly involved in educating the leaders of tomorrow but are tasked with supporting the process by producing a comfortable and healthy learning environment. Several ingredients combine to create such an environment: • Proper ventilation assists in the removal of airborne
contaminants and minimizes the risk of disease transmission.
• A comfortable environment minimizes physiological stress and its negative impact on the learning process. • A suitable acoustical environment allows the transmission of information in an efficient and comfortable manner.

QLCI
The creation and maintenance of a quiet and healthy learning environment is the greatest challenge facing designers of ed-ucational facilities today. TROX QLCI terminals are designed to provide air quality and acoustical performance similar to that of conventional displacement systems, but are specifi-cally designed for operation in North American climates.
High-efficiency school design focuses on the attainment and maintenance of such environmental goals in a sustainable and energy efficient manner. Displacement ventilation is re-garded as a key element in high-efficiency design due to its superior contaminant removal capabilities and positive impact on energy efficiency.

Underfloor Air Distribution
In line with the specific acoustical requirements in concert halls, humidity requirements in museums and optimal indoor air quality in casinos, the Underfloor Air Distribution system can be a perfect solution for ventilation and air conditioning. Air flow from the floor to the ceiling is also becoming increas-ingly popular in offices equipped with computers and other electronic devices.TROX floor diffusers can be produced in aluminum and plas-tic and their select variety of surface structures and colors makes them an attractive design element for building own-ers and architects. These products are aesthetically appeal-ing and blend well with most architectural and interior design schemes. Their rugged construction and attractive appear-ance satisfy the needs of engineers and architects alike. TROX USA underfloor air diffusers are ideal for use in muse-ums, court rooms, electronic equipped offices as well as reli-gious and performing arts facilities.

Air Diffusers
TROX USA develops products which fulfill both the aesthetic design concepts of the architect and the functional and engi-neering requirements. Air diffuser design can be integrated as gracefully-designed elements of the room’s architecture, or, if necessary, can also be completely invisible to the viewer. Together with renowned designers and architects, we have designed ceiling, wall, stairway and floor diffusers so that they can be used by architects as design elements while still com-plying with strict ventilation and acoustic requirements.
Among others, jet nozzles type DUK are becoming more and more popular for heating and cooling. Airports, sports arenas, exhibition halls, entertainment venues or museums – wherever air has to cover large distances, the TROX jet nozzle is the per-fect solution. Because of their modern design and good aero-dynamic characteristics, TROX jet nozzles are also increasing-ly used for architectural reasons. Despite its high performance, the TROX jet nozzle lives up to high acoustic requirements. Matters of design and form haven’t been left out: an extensive range of variants ensures that TROX air diffusers can be inte-grated perfectly into the physical and architectural character of the building.

Displacement Flow Diffuser
TROX displacement flow diffusers have been developed spe-cially for air supply in displacement flow ventilation systems. TROX displacement diffusers are offered with more than 20 standard versions in a variety of shapes, allowing the terminals to be more effectively integrated into interior designs.
Common applications for the new range of terminals include classrooms, patient rooms, waiting areas, airport terminals, atriums, restaurants and casinos. Due to their attractive form and flexible installation, TROX displacement flow diffusers can be integrated even into the most non-conventional design con-cepts. The compact construction is suitable, for example, for installation under windows behind existing wainscoting, and also for mounting on walls, in corners or as free standing ele-ments, for example as columns or base boards.

Chilled Sails
Air conditioning technology is very frequently a conflicting is-sue in relation to the design and its realization. It is essential at an early stage in a building project to integrate the design of indoor climate control and ventilation concepts. The air-water system can also be designed in the form of design elements to accentuate a building’s architecture, for example, as ceiling sails or as inconspicuous ceiling installations. The slat profile means that architects can exploit an extraordinary design fea-ture which stands out from commercially-available flat stan-dard metal ceilings. The option of smooth integration into cen-tralized building communication and control systems is also possible.
