high performance cooling capacity
OPTI Y High performance module
OPTI Y is a high capacity cooling system with an open design for cooling rooms, predominantly through free convection and radiation. Equipped with a fine corrugated surface, the finned cooling elements are suitable for rooms of all types and can be used as individually suspended ceiling modules, a flat finned ceiling or in a concealed installation above a grid ceiling.
The high cooling capacity per unit area (mainly convective) and the large open ceiling cross-section are particular features. Sprinklers, smoke detectors, air diffusers, lighting fixtures, etc. can be installed between the fins.
It can be combined with any air ducting system. The OPTI Y high performance module can also cover the heating load.

Cooling capacity
The cooling capacity corresponds to the amount of energy per second removed from the room via heat radiation and convection. It is determined in accredited climate laboratories in accordance with SN EN 14240.
For comparison: the heat emitted by a person in an office via radiation and convection is approx. 70 – 80 W; the heat emitted by a laptop is approx. 20 – 50 W.
Heating capacity
The heating capacity corresponds to the energy per second added to the room via heat radiation and convection. It is determined in accredited climate laboratories in accordance with SN EN 14037.
For comparison: The heat output of a person in an office via radiation and convection is approx. 70 – 80 W, whilst that of a laptop is approx. 20 – 50 W.
Sound absorption
As the largest unobstructed surface in a room, the ceiling is particularly well suited to sound absorption. The sound absorption class is determined in accordance with EN ISO 11654, based on measurements carried out in accordance with EN ISO 354 in accredited laboratories.
It serves as a parameter for acoustic designers to calculate the effect of a product on a room’s reverberation time.
Carbon footprint
The carbon footprint represents the total CO₂ emissions generated throughout a product’s life cycle (from manufacture through to operation and recycling/disposal).
It is calculated by independent institutes and summarised in an ‘Environmental Product Declaration’ (EPD). Barcol-Air is working specifically to reduce the proportion of high-emission materials such as aluminum and other metals.
By way of comparison: the production of 1 kg of aluminum releases approximately 16 kg of CO₂.
