Active Beams Selection Criteria

A number of variables must be carefully considered when designing a chilled beam system that will optimize comfort and energy efficiency within a building. Read this article to learn more about key selection criteria and to gain an understanding of transfer efficiency as a performance metric for chilled beam systems.

ACBM: Modular Active Beam

The Price ACBM Modular Active Beam offers a four-sided discharge pattern in a visually appealing 2'x2' design. Ideal for offices, the ACBM is highly flexible and easy to install in a t-bar ceiling due to its modular design.

ACBL–HE: High Efficiency Active Beam

This new active beam allows building designs to achieve improved air quality and significantly higher levels of energy efficiency. The ACBL-HE provides optimized transfer efficiency. When it comes to cooling capacity, the ratio of coil output to supply air volume, (transfer efficiency), is an important selection factor. The higher this number is, the better the beam and the more efficient the overall system will be.

Available in 2' wide, 2 sided discharge with more configurations to follow.
