Plasmapanel® AirFlow
Intelligent Noise Control for Ventilation and Airflow Systems
The Plasmapanel AirFlow Platform is a next-generation active acoustic platform designed specifically for Ventilation, HVAC, and Appliance noise reduction. Powered by patented plasmacoustic technology with AI-enabled real-time processing, it combines deep low-frequency performance with a slim, lightweight, and energy-efficient form factor that preserves airflow and system efficiency.
The Plasmapanel AirFlow Platform™ is designed for airflow applications where traditional silencers, foams, and linings struggle to deliver effective low-frequency noise reduction. As a scalable platform that can be shaped and configured to suit a wide range of system geometries, it supports applications from compact domestic appliances and residential ventilation units through to large-scale HVAC ducts. This flexibility enables precise, programmable acoustic control without imposing pressure loss, added bulk, or the hygiene and maintenance concerns associated with porous materials.
Airflow-Optimised Plasmacoustic Technology
At the core of the Plasmapanel AirFlow Platform is a solid-state acoustic metalayer driven by a low-power plasma interface. This interface modulates pressure at the air boundary in real time, achieving true absorption rather than the reflection or leakage typical of passive silencers. The platform delivers wide-band control from 30 Hz to 1500 Hz, including efficient attenuation of low-frequency fan and compressor noise, all without moving parts or restrictive baffles. The AirFlow Platform maintains stable acoustic performance in duct velocities up to 10 m/s, ensuring compatibility with modern ventilation, HVAC, and appliance airflow designs.
AI-Enabled Performance in Dynamic Flow Conditions
The Plasmapanel AirFlow Platform continuously monitors its acoustic and flow environment using embedded sensing and AI-enabled DSP. The system intelligently optimises absorption as fan speeds, flow conditions, or tonal components change, maintaining stable low-frequency performance across varying operating states. Whether managing turbulence in ducts, variable-speed ventilation, or appliance cooling noise, the AirFlow Platform delivers consistently high acoustic performance throughout the duty cycle.
Engineered for Seamless OEM Integration
With a slim profile, low mass, and modular construction, the Plasmapanel AirFlow Platform is easily integrated into duct walls, around fan housings, or along external conduits where space and geometry are constrained. It supports custom dimensions and scalable acoustic surface area, enabling alignment with diverse appliance, ventilation, and HVAC designs. Consuming only a few watts and eliminating the need for petrochemical foams or fibrous fillers, the AirFlow Platform offers a solid-state, maintenance-free solution that supports long-life reliability and ESG objectives in airflow-driven systems.
