Question 2

What is the actual sound reduction ratio in dB over 3 meters compared to a classic aluminum duct? What is the impact of pressure loss (%) on air flow?

Accepted Answer

The Phonic Trap Duct 3 meters Ø160mm offers a significant noise reduction, approximately 50% less noise compared to a classic aluminum duct. In decibels, the exact figure per meter is not specified, but it is a clearly noticeable gain in use. In terms of pressure loss and its impact on air flow, this duct is designed to minimize restrictions. No precise percentage data is available, but its design promotes good air passage with low impact on flow, so ventilation remains effective.

Question 3

Is this Phonic Trap 160mm duct compatible with automated ventilation systems for indoor cultivation and does it support airflow rates greater than 300 m3/h?

Accepted Answer

The Phonic Trap Ø160 mm pre-cut duct in 3 meters is perfectly compatible with automated ventilation systems for indoor cultivation. It is designed to effectively reduce noise while supporting high pressures up to 2100 Pa, ensuring excellent performance against airflow rates greater than 300 m³/h. Its standard diameter of 160 mm corresponds well to the usual airflow of extractors and fans used in indoor cultivation, thus ensuring optimal performance without loss of efficiency.

Question 4

What is the installation ease of this Phonic Trap duct 3m 160mm on an existing system without having to replace the entire duct?

Accepted Answer

The Phonic Trap sheath 3 meters - Ø160mm Pre-cut is specially designed to fit easily onto standard 160mm ducts, making it easy to integrate into an existing ventilation system without requiring a complete duct replacement. It simply attaches at the ends using clamps or brackets, and can be inserted inside the existing duct or connected at the end depending on your installation. This system effectively improves sound insulation without compromising airflow or requiring heavy works. In summary, this pre-cut acoustic duct is a practical, quick, and efficient solution to reduce noise in your existing setup while keeping your current duct.

Question 5

What is the average pressure loss of the Phonic Trap duct 3m 160mm compared to a classic aluminum duct of the same diameter?

Accepted Answer

The Phonic Trap duct 3 meters - Ø160mm offers remarkable sound insulation, reducing noise by up to 50% compared to a classic aluminum duct. This performance is achieved through an absorbent inner coating that creates more friction for the circulating air. As a result, its average pressure loss is higher than that of a traditional aluminum duct, which is usually smoother and without insulation. However, no precise figures are available. This choice reflects a classic trade-off between acoustic comfort and aerodynamic performance.

Question 6

Is the Phonic Trap 3m 160mm suitable for a micro space where noise reduction is a priority?

Accepted Answer

The Phonic Trap 3 meters Ø160 mm is perfectly suited for micro spaces where noise reduction is a priority. It reduces air noise by up to 50% compared to a standard aluminum duct, providing significant acoustic comfort. Flexible, durable, and non-allergenic, it is suitable for confined spaces without sacrificing effectiveness or generating noise disturbances.

Question 7

Is the Phonic Trap 3m 160mm duct compatible with all extractors or should a specific model be checked before purchase?

Accepted Answer

The Phonic Trap 3 meters – Ø160 mm duct is designed for wide compatibility with different air extractors. However, for optimal operation, it is essential that the duct diameter matches that of your extractor to avoid any loss of pressure or performance. Its flexibility and robustness allow for good adaptation, but it is also important to limit excessive bends.In summary, it is not necessary to check a specific model before purchasing, but it is recommended to ensure that the 160 mm diameter is compatible with your extractor to guarantee an effective installation.

Question 8

What is the average pressure loss over 3 meters for the Phonic Trap duct 160mm compared to a classic aluminum duct of the same diameter?

Accepted Answer

The Phonic Trap duct 160 mm, thanks to its insulating multilayer structure, exhibits a slight additional pressure loss compared to a smooth aluminum duct of the same diameter. Over 3 meters, this difference is generally small, estimated between 1.0 and 2.0 Pa for the Phonic Trap, compared to about 0.9 to 1.5 Pa for a smooth aluminum duct. This slight additional resistance is related to the integrated sound insulation, which ensures significant noise reduction without notably compromising airflow. For a classic indoor installation, this slight difference is therefore negligible and represents an excellent compromise between aerodynamics and acoustic comfort.

Question 9

Is the Phonic Trap duct 160mm compatible with a 200mm extractor by adapting the joints, or is it better to stick to the same diameter to optimize sound reduction and airflow?

Accepted Answer

It is preferable to stick to the same diameter, so 160 mm, between your extractor and the Phonic Trap duct. Adapting a 200 mm extractor to a 160 mm duct via joints can lead to disruptions in airflow, pressure losses, and also a decrease in sound reduction efficiency due to the turbulence created at the transition. To ensure smooth ventilation and optimal silence, consistency in diameter is essential. If an adaptation is necessary, it must be done with appropriate joints and a careful installation, albeit without reaching the performance of a homogeneous system at the same diameter.

Question 10

What is the actual sound reduction level measured in decibels achieved with this Phonic Trap duct compared to a standard aluminum duct under normal usage conditions?

Accepted Answer

The Phonic Trap duct, thanks to its multilayer design, can reduce the noise level by up to 50% compared to a standard aluminum duct under normal usage conditions. Although this does not correspond to a precise measurement in decibels, this reduction is noticeable and significantly improves acoustic comfort. For an exact value in decibels, specific tests would be necessary, but this duct remains an excellent choice for effectively limiting noise related to ventilation.

Question 11

What is the durability of the Phonic Trap 3m duct against temperature and humidity variations common in a house without affecting its soundproofing ability?

Accepted Answer

The Phonic Trap 3 meters - Ø160mm duct is designed with robust materials like a black non-woven aluminum sheet, polyester fleece insulation, and reinforced microporous fabric, giving it excellent resistance to the usual temperature and humidity variations in a house. Its aluminum adhesive supports very high and low temperatures, ensuring maximum durability. Furthermore, this duct retains its soundproofing power even in humid or very dry environments, guaranteeing stable and long-lasting performance over time.

Question 12

Acoustic duct trap 3m 160mm compatible with extraction 150m3/h under 30db in micro box?

Accepted Answer

The Acoustic duct Phonic Trap 3m Ø160 mm is perfectly suited for an extraction of 150 m³/h at about 30 dB in a micro box. Its standard diameter comfortably supports this flow rate without significant loss, while its polyester wadding insulation reduces noise by about 50% compared to a conventional duct. Its robustness (pressure up to 2100 Pa) ensures excellent performance in this context. To optimize its performance, it is essential to use well-sealed fittings to prevent any air leaks or unwanted noise. Additionally, this opaque duct effectively blocks light, a crucial point to protect your crop. In summary, it offers an ideal compromise between sound reduction and air circulation in a confined space like a micro box.

Question 13
