Natural VentilationOur Intelivent natural ventilation products are a part of our ‘Inteligent Solutions’ range that offer low carbon, innovative alternatives powered purely using natural energy sources.

The fundamental difference between more commonly used mechanical ventilation and natural ventilation is the use of encapsulated wind power to fully ventilate the building.

Our Intelivent range of Natural Ventilation solutionssignificantly lowers energy consumption, operating and maintenance costs within buildings. The Intelivent range includes a choice of natural ventilation solutions that harness both wind and solar power to ventilate the buildings.

The Intelivent RangeOur natural ventilation range consists of three primary devises the ‘Wall Unit’, the ‘Penthouse Turret’ and the‘Solarstore’. All the components within the range work together or as stand alone products depending on the height and layout of the building.

Our Intelivent systems are ideally suited for both commercialand educational buildings. The concept of the system is tocreate a stack effect through the space and to control theincoming air temperature via the wall mounted heating element.

The systems are preferably controlled by wireless CO2

and temperature sensors providing user friendly controls. The systems can be connected to any existing BMS or internet system.

Cost Effective• Natural ventilation reduces the need for mechanical air conditioning.

• Low energy consumption.• Low operating costs.• Low maintenance costs.• Night purging reduces day time cooling by refreshing the room with cooler night time air.

Sustainable and Eco Friendly• By harnessing wind power & temperature buoyancy to ventilate the building.

• Increased control significantly reduces energy usage by monitoring CO2 levels.

• No fuels are necessary significantly contributing to energy conservation and carbon emission reduction.

Health Benefits• Cool fresh air increases concentration levels due to the fresh supply of oxygen continually replacing any stale air.

• The occupant can control the temperature of the room to meet their requirements.

• Eliminates ‘sick building syndrome’.• Increased security as there are no open windows.

C. Tight Shut-off Insulated Damper (cooling)

D. Acoustic Baffle

E. Low Pressure Hot Water Heating Coil

F. Fascia Grille

G. Control Panel

H. Low Pressure Hot Water Control Valve

DescriptionThis unique design works as a front line heating systemdrawing incoming air into the building and is controlled via CO2 and temperature sensors. The Winter scenario allows the lower damper arrangement to fully open passing theheating coil, in contrast the summer scenario allows the lower and upper damper sections to fully open allowing fresh air to pass through. The front attenuator baffle givesadditional noise reduction to the units.

Key Features• Two section heater battery to give greater control and energy saving.

• Heater battery sited at low level to eliminate cold air sited at low level.

• Split damper giving greater control and reducing energy consumption.

• The units are controlled by CO2 emissions and temperature sensors or manual override.

• Optional noise attenuator. • Bespoke wall sleeves to cover a range of wall thickness.• Tamper proof fixings.

OptionsAdditional options ideally suited to the system include the controls package, the wire-less battery-less peripheral devices and the optional noise attenuator to further reducenoise levels.

Size and WeightThe Wall Mounted units can be manufactured to fit anybespoke size. For the purpose of obtaining test data the three ‘standard’ sizes are as follows:1670 x 6181360 x 618910 x 618

For the Low Leakage Insulated Damper rates please see p148 for more information.

Intelivent Range - Penthouse Turrets

DescriptionOur natural ventilation split turrets are designed to offer abalanced supply of fresh air, whilst also having the ability to remove warm, stale air. Due to the effective internal split design within the turret unit and duct extension sleeve, the supply and extract air are kept separate, avoiding cross contamination.

The air is balanced through our motorised volume controldamper which would be linked to our controls package.

The air is both distributed and extracted through a commonadjustable blade, 4-way pattern diffuser. These units areideally suitable in sports halls, gymnasiums and assemblyareas.

ConstructionFrom extruded aluminium sections, frame 3.0mm - 5.0mmthick, with 1.6mm thick blades. Aluminium roof 1.5mm thickfully welded construction.

Size & WeightThere are virtually no size restrictions on the units asmanufacture of these can be undertaken in sections to facilitate both size requirements and location / liftingrequirements. Average Weight 60.0kg/m3

Average Free Area 40%

Penthouse Turret Technical Details

Rain Defence Our high performance louvre blades will achieve Class A.

Airflow Performance The air flow volume provided through the turret unit is dependant

on the external wind speed but typically offer the following performance.

External Wind Speed M/S Max Air Volume m3/sec/m2 of louvre.

2.0 0.2

4.0 0.6

Determination of This is determined by both the internal air temperature and CO2 Levels.

Air Volume The intelligent controls & sensing devices determine the modulation and

control of the dampers for the requirement of the given space area.

Intelivent Range - Solarstore

DescriptionThe Solarstore solution works on the same principal as our Penthouse Turret, however this option is powered by a photovoltaic cell located on the top of the turret. The solar cell in this instance harnesses energy from thesun in order to drive the supply and extract fans allowing 24 hour ventilation.

This innovative design breaks new ground in the solarenergy free ventilation market.

Key Features• Solar photovoltaic cell.• Power management module.• DC carbon fibre battery.• Dual DC reversible fan.• Wireless controller.• Wireless peripheral devices.

Intelivent Range - Solar Pipe

DescriptionThe roof mounted Solarpipe turret is designed to delivernatural daylight throughout buildings in areas such ascorridors, stairwells, offices and class rooms. This system is often specified within educational, healthcare andcommercial buildings.

The purpose of this system is to diffuse natural light into thebuilding eliminating the need for artificial lighting providing a sustainable an energy efficient alternative. Natural lightenters the turret at roof level and is directed into the building via reflective tubing where the light is dispersed into therequired areas.

The tube material is 99.7% reflective allowing maximum lighttransfer into the building. The Solarpipe is available in 250mmdiameter to light upto 13sqm, 350mm diameter to light upto22sqm and 530mm diameter to light upto 33sqm. Transitionboxes are available to convert between sizes for drywalls and suspended ceilings.

Penthouse Turret Components Listed below are the components that comprise our InteliventPenthouse Turrets inclusive of the Solarpipe system:

High Performance Natural Ventilation TurretExtruded aluminium 70mm high performance external weatherlouvre with extended turned down base angle and centralapex roof.

Natural Ventilation Dampers1.2mm aluminium blades with galvanised mild steel casing.The depth of the damper is 120mm with 35mm flanges. The damper includes a Belimo SM24-ASR fully modulatingactuator with a maximum unit size of 1450mm x 1400mm.

Damper Connection SleeveConstructed from 1.2mm galvanised mild steel with fullywelded and dressed joints. The casing is fully lined with 12mm Pyrosorb foam.

Internal Ceiling GrilleOur wide range of ceiling grilles and diffusers are availabledepending on the application, in most cases an eggcrate grille is used to diffuse the air and daylight.

The SolarpipeThe Solarpipe dome is located on the roof of the penthouseturret. The lens system in the dome captures as much naturaldaylight as possible this is then reflected down the tubing. The Solarpipe system is available in 250mm diameter, 350mm diameter and 530mm diameter.
