Principal of Operation

The void above the ceiling is divided into exhaust and supply air plenums by leak-tight metal vertical partitions.
Grease filtration is achieved through a twin shell perforated extract module.

Grease emitted from the cooking equipment precipitates out of the airstream as it passes through the modules.
The exhaust module shape ensures that the separated discharge cannot drip back onto cooking surfaces and is retained within the shells and the surrounding collection troughs.

Supply modules are perforated single skinned panels through which fresh air is introduced into the kitchen.
Blank modules are not perforated; these are used to complete the ceiling after all supply, exhaust and lighting modules have been fitted. They also provide a means for locating items such as smoke detectors.
Collection troughs are channels located between the modules, which retain extracted grease between cleaning cycles.

Lighting

Lighting is provided by means of integrated
500 x 500 mm sealed light units designed to achieve
500 lux on the working surface below.

Size and weight

The system is based on 500mm square modules allowing for total flexibility of layout. The nominal average weight of the system of 15 kg/m2.

Appearance

The ceiling is available in satin finish stainless steel as standard. Alternatively the ceiling components can be polyester powder coated to a colour of the clients choice.

Cleaning & maintenance

Only the exhaust modules and collection troughs require regular cleaning. Frequency of cleaning depends on the type, frequency and density of cooking.
All modules and troughs are easily removed, without specialist tools and are suitable for cleaning in a conventional commercial dishwasher.
Britannia provide cleaning and maintenance contracts on any completed ceiling to ensure the system is always in excellent condition.

Services Distribution Units

Housing the mechanical and electrical services that run from the ceiling to the cooking equipment can sometimes be difficult.
Britannia supply services distribution units to house the services in custom designed stainless steel enclosures.
