Weather protection grid – VZ 82

Steel weather protection grilles with slat supports for efficient in-house production

This kit with slat supports has been developed for building services engineering firms that wish to manufacture weather protection grilles in-house. Cost-effectiveness and flexibility are the top priorities. The advantage of this system is the integrated slat-insertion system with slat supports. This ensures that slats are positioned quickly and held securely, which simplifies production and enables a high degree of repeatability. The slat spacing of 82 mm is suitable for large-format air intake and exhaust openings.

In practice, prefabricated weather protection grilles often reach their limits when project-specific or custom dimensions are required. This leads to longer delivery times and higher procurement costs. With this steel weather protection grille, air duct manufacturers and building services contractors can produce bespoke solutions directly in-house. The fixed louvres protect fresh air and exhaust air openings from the elements. When combined with a bird protection grille, they also keep dirt, leaves and small animals out of the ventilation system. The design ensures the long-term, reliable operation of building services equipment.
