51EC Eggcrate Return Grilles

The Series 51EC Eggcrate Return Grilles are high-capacity return or exhaust outlets with the highest free area available (approximately 90%). They therefore have the lowest pressure drop and sound levels available for a return air inlet.

The aluminium cube cores are constructed of thin, interlocked aluminium strips assembled in a square grid fashion and match in appearance the grid louvres on parabolic light fixtures. They are most suitable for use as ceiling returns. They are not recommended for low-side wall applications due to potential core damage.

The 51EC Series are available with various frame/border styles to suit both lay-in type and hard ceilings.
