Sonic Series acoustic louvre SL4-10

The Sonic Series acoustic louvre SL4-10 is a 100mm deep acoustic louvre designed to provide controlled airborne sound reduction while maintaining airflow performance. Use it where system depth is limited and ventilation requirements must be balanced with acoustic attenuation.

Engineered to balance acoustic attenuation, airflow performance and weather protection, the SL4-10 is a low-depth, high-airflow configuration within the Sonic Series acoustic louvre range, designed for applications where space constraints prevent the use of deeper acoustic louvres.
