Offset
BIC Rectangular Lateral Offset
The BIC rectangular lateral offset is specifically designed to ensure flexibility and adaptability of ventilation systems to building-specific constraints or obstacles that prevent duct installation in a straight line. This component allows precise and efficient redirection of airflow while maintaining system functionality and optimal performance.
Design and Functionality:
Application:
The BIC rectangular lateral offset is used when there are obstacles in the duct path, such as structural elements, utility lines, or other restrictions.
This element allows for rerouting of the duct to suit the particular installation environment while maintaining efficient airflow.
Flow Optimization:
To ensure effective airflow and minimal resistance, it is essential to maintain an optimal ratio between the offset drop and the length of the element. Proper proportion helps avoid turbulence and pressure losses within the ventilation system.
Standard and Custom Options:
-
Standard Solutions:
BIC offers pre-made standard-size lateral offsets suitable for the most common installation scenarios in ventilation systems. -
Custom Solutions:
Upon request, BIC can produce lateral offsets in non-standard sizes, tailored to specific requirements and technical needs.
Mounting and Connection:
For mounting and connecting the element, Gebhardt-Stahl flanges are used, ensuring high joint strength and stability:
-
Flange 20: for widths B ≤ 1500 mm
-
Flange 30: for widths 1500 mm < B ≤ 2000 mm
-
Flange 40: for widths B > 2000 mm
