Louvreclad Kensington Series® offers Class A 100% rain defence and 50% open area. As our ‘weather-proof’ louvre, it’s ideal for medical, commercial, and industrial projects demanding cyclone-level rain protection.
Performance
Provides Class A 100% rain defence and Class 3 aerodynamics, ensuring optimal protection against water ingress in demanding environments. Ideal for projects needing maximum rain protection.
Aesthetics
Features a 125mm deep aluminium profile with a 62.5mm pitch. Available in powder-coated or anodised finishes, suitable for both horizontal and vertical installations.
Design
Designed with zero vision screening and can be specified as prefab modular panels or continuous louvres with integrated doors. Perfect for cyclone-prone areas.
Protection
Essential for protecting plant equipment and electrical units from water damage, making it ideal for sensitive environments where water ingress must be avoided.

Selecting the right louvreinvolves these steps.
To select the right performance louvre for your project design: 1) The mechanical engineer defines the required volume flow rate (m ³/s) for mechanical plant or passive ventilation dictated by the mechanical equipment behind the louvres. 2) Mechanical engineer defines the maximum allowable pressure drop across a louvre before fan performance suffers. 3) The architect and engineer then balance the louvre façade area (m2) against the pressure drop requirements, required rain resistance, and aesthetics to get a mutually workable outcome. 4) Finally you can then specify the louvre that works for your design aesthetically and achieves the performance classification required for both aerodynamics and rain defence using the Australian Standard AS4740:2000 classification system. Please note: louvre performance is proportional to the design airflow. For example, the higher the air velocity, the lower the rain defence.
