It can be necessary (for instance to avoid condensation at the outlet, to keep contaminated flows of exhaust air intentionally away
from parts of buildings etc. or to avoid air short-circuiting) to blow out with a higher velocity (complying nevertheless with the flow

noise).

4.2.6.2 Sound pressure level
For purposes of acoustic calculations for the ventilation and air-conditioning system a sound pressure level of
50 dB with a mean reverberation period of 1.5 sec. shall be used. This value may be exceeded by 5 dB in the
area for washing up crockery, pots and pans. Measurements shall be carried out in the working area at a high
of 1.7 m above the floor.
4.2.7 System adjustment
The system shall be adjusted to ensure that the volumetric air flow rates during contractual operation conform
to the planned values.

prEN 16282-5:2014 (E)
Volumetric air flow rates shall be measured and documented in accordance with EN 12599. Departing from
EN 12599 is permitted as long as the overall uncertainty of measurement does not exceed 10 %. Departure
from this uncertainty of measurement is permitted in individual cases if there is evidence that there are only
unfavourable measuring points in the system.
4.2.8 Insulation
Air ducts used for the transport of heated or cooled supply air shall be insulated to maintain energy efficiency.
Insulation measures shall be taken for air ducts where the temperature could fall below the dew point.
4.3 Materials
Any of the materials specified in Table 2 shall be used.
