Console 80% lighter. Easier handling and installation.
Snap-lock mechanism instead of a locking screw. No risk of unintended setpoint drift.
Same product code. All catalogue parameters unchanged.
In practice, a constant air volume regulator is more than just another system component. It is an element that directly influences the uniformity of air distribution, occupant comfort, and the as-built compliance of an installation with its design intent. Traditional steel consoles — whilst robust — were associated with dimensional variation inherent to complex manual assembly. The new-generation RCP-R eliminates these limitations.
The adjusting mechanism console has been comprehensively redesigned. The new construction, manufactured by injection moulding, delivers high dimensional repeatability that directly translates into improved regulation accuracy. Testing across the 2–10 m/s operating range confirms accuracy within ±10%.
The console mass has been reduced by 80% compared to the previous version, and a new snap-lock setpoint mechanism eliminates the risk of unintended setpoint drift.
All key regulator parameters remain unchanged: regulation accuracy, straight duct section requirements, aeroacoustic performance, actuator variants (CM, LM), insulated version, and air leakage class CX. The product code is likewise unchanged.

No. The RCP-R product code remains unchanged. The transition to the new generation requires no modifications to project specifications.
No. Regulation accuracy, straight duct section requirements, and aeroacoustic performance — all remain consistent with the current data sheet.
Snap-lock mechanism: insert a narrow flat-head screwdriver into the lock aperture, tilt to the right, adjust to the required value, then press the lock until it clicks into place. More durable and more secure than a locking screw, with no risk of unintended loosening.
Yes. CM and LM actuator variants remain available unchanged. The insulated version is likewise available.
The console width (dimension L) is marginally smaller. All other installation dimensions remain unchanged.
The RCP-R is a mechanical circular constant air volume (CAV) regulator for circular ventilation ducts, operating without an external power supply. It is used in mechanical ventilation systems where the design requires a constant airflow rate for a given zone — regardless of variations in available pressure resulting from the operation of other system components. It is suitable wherever a stable, consistent air change rate is required: offices, schools, hospitals, hotels, and public buildings with supply and extract ventilation systems.
