KCJ – Capture Jet™ ventilated ceiling (CE)

The KCJ closed ventilated ceiling, with the Capture Jet™ technology, combines several functions: extraction, air supply, lighting, and a suspended ceiling. It is suitable for open or show kitchens (hotels, hospitals, gastronomic restaurants, central kitchens, staff restaurants etc).

KCJ ceilings free the kitchen from the space taken up by hoods. The entire kitchen then potentially benefits from the daylight, in addition to the integrated uniform and direct lighting. The visual comfort and the impression of space are incomparable. In the unlikely event of fire, it also provides an excellent protection, limiting its spread through the building.

Compared to hoods, heat and vapours are necessarily captured higher up. The latest generation of Capture Jet™ technology virtually constitutes an outer boundary for smoke to remove it efficiently.

Halton’s laminar flow units LFU provide a draught-free make up air completing the action of the Capture Jets and improving staff comfort.

Considerable energy savings

• Up to 15% reduction in exhaust airflow rates due to Capture Jet™ technology.
• Possibility to extend the airflows reduction to up to 53% with M.A.R.V.E.L. energy savings technology.

Improved safety and maintenance savings

• KSA cyclonic aerosol separators complying with EN 16282-6, 95% efficient on 10 microns particles or larger (also UL, NSF and LPS certified).
• Alternatively and depending on the requirements, exhaust plenums are equipped with highly-efficient twin FC aerosol separators complying with DIN 18869-5 (ability to prevent flames passing through the filters).
• Efficiently limits the build-up of grease deposits in the exhaust plenums and ductwork which constitute a serious hygiene and fire safety hazard. Reduces the cleaning costs.
