Function
- Halton TRI balancing plenum equalises the airflow by reducing the flow velocity
- Air is spread evenly into the diffuser ensuring proper function
- A range of diffusers can be connected to the distribution ductwork using Halton TRI-plenum, which improves their functional characteristics considerably
- The balancing plenum also attenuates duct noise
- Halton TRI plenum can also be used as an exhaust unit.
The technical performance is presented for installation with the collar connected outside (Halton TRI-(N)) the balancing plenum.
Installation
Halton TRI plenum can be installed using two strips or with M8 drop rods (not supplied).
Halton TRI is connected to the distribution ductwork with a spigot equipped with an integral gasket.
Due to the modular collar system, the diffuser can be connected to the plenum in three different ways:
- The collar connected to the outside of the plenum box
- The collar mounted internally
- Directly to the plenum without collar (possible only in limited cases).
In order to change the connection method, the collar is detached by opening the brackets and the collar is remounted into the desired position.
Halton TRI/V
The Halton TRI/V is connected to the ventilation ductwork with a male inlet connection.
After the ductwork pressure test, the diffuser can be installed.
Hang the diffuser to the wire of the Halton TRI/V plenum.
Connect the actuator cable connector plug to the plug from the plenum junction box.
Fix the actuator assembly to the plenum and tighten two screws.
The power supply and control signal cables are connected to junction box according to the diffuser’s wiring instructions.
Adjustment
The supply flow rate is determined by using the measurement and adjustment module MSM.
The tubes and control spindle are passed through the diffuser. Measure the differential pressure with a manometer. The flow rate is calculated using the formula below:
∆pm Measured pressure [Pa]
k The k factor given as a function of mounting and diameter
qv Airflow rate [l/s]
The k-factor for installations with different safety distances
(D = duct diameter)

100 | 6.0 | 7.5 |

160 | 16.9 | 21.9 |
200 | 28.3 | 32.0 |
250 | 47.9 | 51.5 |
Adjust the airflow rate by rotating the control s pindle until the desired setting is achieved.
Lock the damper position with a screw. Replace the tubes and spindle into the plenum.
When Halton TRI is used for exhaust air, it is not possible to measure airflow rate with adjustment module MEM.
Servicing
Open or detach the diffuser. Detach the measurement and adjustment module by pulling gently from the casing (not from the control spindle or measurement tubes). Wipe the parts with a damp cloth, instead of immersing in water.
The measurement and adjustment module is remounted by pushing the body until it meets the stopper.
The sound attenuation material within the plenum can also be removed (the material is washable), to enable cleaning of the inner side of the plenum.
The material is detached by releasing the retaining brackets, which are replaced after washing.
Close or replace the diffuser after cleaning.
Specification
The balancing plenum is made of galvanised steel and has a robust and airtight construction.
The airflow rate measurement and adjustment module are available for supply application. The measurement and adjustment module is adjustable without opening the device.
The balancing plenum has a spigot with integral gasket for airtight duct connection and a plug for ductwork pressure testing.
The balancing plenum attenuates duct noise. The sound attenuation material is made of polyester fibre with a washable surface.
