Product Description
VAW Systems’ AL (standard blade), AL-S (sight-proof) and AL-F (airfoil shaped) Acoustic Louvers are
designed to provide optimal acoustic performance (Transmission Loss; dB) with minimal airflow
restrictions (Pressure Drop; in.w.g.) for a variety of space restricted applications. Acoustic louvers are
manufactured with a choice of finishes and material options. If required by the system or in-field
conditions, the acoustic louver may be assembled in a modular fashion. VAW Systems offers a range of
blade geometries that will meet your acoustic, aerodynamic and security requirements.
