e-mail: trox@[Link] PI/1/8.2/B/1
Type AFG The very latest production procedures are used in the
manufacture of the AFG floor grille including the use of robotic
welding.
Materials
Grille face and border frame are extruded from aluminium
sections, mill finish as standard.
Optional finishes include natural anodise, black with linished face,
powder coated silver grey RAL 9006 or nylon coated black.
Rear assemblies made from formed sheet steel frame and
extruded aluminium blades, stove enamelled black (RAL 9005).
Description Dimensions
The type AFG floor grille has been specifically developed for
mounting in Raised Access Floors in such areas as Computer Nominal size A B C
Rooms, where load and damage resistance are of the utmost
importance. 600 599 68.5 140 approx
Having a rating of Extra heavy duty to the latest specifications,
the AFG can replace 600mm square floor tiles to handle supply
air or alternatively extract air. Grille border can be specified to
suit the type of floor system used. A range of surface finishes is
available. Can be fitted with rear opposed blade damper
assembly for air volume flow control.

Installation Technical Data
Shims are permanently fitted to the underside of the grille frame in
the area of the pedestal to provide the required depth between Table 1: Supply air
pedestal face and upper surface of flooring. These shims are
factory fitted, see detail ‘A’ for range of dimension ‘X’. V· (l/s)

V· in l/s : Volume flow rate
LpNR : NR rating assuming a room correction of 8dB
LpNR = LWNR - 8dB Selection Guide
When the AFG floor grille is used in an area with high heat loads,
LWNR : NR rating of sound power level e.g. computer rooms, the grille should be located close to the
heat source but away from any wall or partition.
ps in Pa : Static pressure drop
The recommended air volume per grille for a ceiling height of 3m
veff in m/s : Effective discharge velocity is between 140 and 220 l/s. For higher ceilings the flow can be
increased up to typically 300 l/s.
The pressure drop across the type AFG floor grille should also be
considered in the selection process for a pressurised floor void
system.
Further detailed selection can be obtained on request.
