01 AX6-ACTIF
Swirl, for high ceilings
Swirl diffusion in heating and in cooling, which mixes the air more effectively. Optional security grille for gymnasiums and sports centres.

ACTIF thermodynamic diffusers
Diffusers thatknow the season.
ACTIF thermodynamic diffusers adjust their own diffusion angle to the supply air temperature: cool air is thrown horizontally to mix near the ceiling, warm air is sent downward to reach the occupants. No power, no controls, no maintenance.
How it works
One thermal element. Two behaviours.
A thermal spring or a wax piston sits in the air path and expands or retracts with the temperature of the air passing through the diffuser. That movement sets the blade angle. No sensor, no electric actuator, no programming: the diffuser responds to the air itself.
- No power
- Self-contained, driven by temperature
- No controls
- Nothing to configure or program
- No maintenance
- Installs like a standard diffuser
Supply air temperatureCoolingHeating
CoolWarm
Horizontal projection
Cool air runs along the ceiling, mixes with the warm air pooled there and reaches the occupied zone at a comfortable velocity and temperature.
Conceptual illustration only. It shows the principle, not a measurement: real temperatures, airflows and air quality vary from one room, system and building to the next.
The difference
Not a VAV diffuser.
Most thermal diffusers are variable-air-volume diffusers: they throttle the airflow. ACTIF diffusers leave the volume alone. You decide how much air to supply; they take care of diffusing it efficiently, in heating and in cooling.
Variable volume, fixed angle
VAV diffuser
Reduces the airflow according to room temperature
Full volume, variable angle
ACTIF diffuser
Changes the diffusion angle according to supply air temperature
The family
Three ACTIF models.
01 
02 DCG-ACTIF
Round, all aluminium
Often preferred for its look in restaurants and lofts with open ceilings. Its aluminium construction makes it the choice for humid or corrosion-sensitive environments.

03 KAM-W-ACTIF · KAM-D-ACTIF
Nozzle jet, wall or duct
For supplying heating and cooling from a wall in large open spaces. The jet tilts 30° downward in heating and 30° upward in cooling to counter the buoyancy of the air. KAM-W-ACTIF surface-mounts with invisible screws, KAM-D-ACTIF mounts directly on the duct.
- Long throw
- ±30°
- Surface or duct
Applications
Where the ceiling is high and the seasons are real.
Gymnasiums, airports, shopping centres, libraries, train stations, open-ceiling restaurants: anywhere the same diffuser has to deliver cool air in summer and warm air in winter, from height.
- Gymnasiums and sports centres
- Airports and train stations
- Retail and shopping centres
- Libraries and theatres
- Open-ceiling restaurants
- Industrial buildings
