Lowest sound levels

The coordinated interaction between the smooth-running EC tangential fan and the high-performance copper-aluminum convector ensures optimum indoor air quality. This means high heat output with low sound levels at the same time.

For rooms with increased heat load

The Katherm QK is specially designed for rooms with floor-to-ceiling window areas and correspondingly higher room heat loads. The integrated EC tangential fans enable efficient heat output even in low temperature operation and ensure rapid warm-up at a low noise level.

3054 variants

The variety of variants and outputs is extensive. Available in two trench widths.

Custom-made solutions

For every building architecture with individual geometries, custom-made solutions are possible. This applies to the trench and the grille. 

Available, for example:

  • Mitred corners
  • Curved versions
  • Angles and slopes
  • Column cut-outs
  • Different grille variants
  • Frame edges

Wide range of variants

To suit the installation situation, the respective trench is complemented by the matching grille and matching frame edge. Thanks to easily removable end pieces, continuous trench runs adapted to the facade can be realized.

Short delivery times

The Katherm QK standard trenches are available with short delivery times. For you, this means planning reliability and security in project execution.

Short installation time

Thanks to the valve connection, a fast and easy installation of the Katherm QK on site is possible. In addition, height adjustment screws and step-resistant height adjustment feet are supplied as standard to further reduce installation time and thus costs.

Protection during installation and construction

Our Katherm trench technology products are carefully packed in cardboard packaging for transport. The grille edge trim profiles are protected against damage by green plastic profiles. A sustainable paper cover prevents dust and dirt from entering.

As the units are often installed in the building at an early construction stage, the grille can be replaced at the factory with a wooden installation cover for their protection for an additional charge. The grilles are then supplied separately packed.

Technical features

Uniform airflow

  • The fans installed in the Katherm QK ensure a uniform airflow through the convector.
  • This ensures directed air outlet from the trench.

Introduction of supply air

  • Primary air or fresh air is introduced into the rooms via special supply air ducts.
  • The Katherm supply air duct ZL is available for all Katherm trench technology units.
  • This is an underfloor duct that can be attached to the respective version of the Katherm units.

Heating in low-temperature and heat pump operation

  • The Katherm QK is suitable for use with a heat pump or another low-temperature system.
  • Thanks to fan support, especially at low system temperatures (low temperature), you quickly achieve 3-4 times the output compared with conventional radiators.
  • Reduce your energy demand and heating costs and ultimately, of course, greenhouse gas emissions as well.

Life cycle assessment data (EPDs)

We assess the environmental impact of our products across their entire life cycle („cradle to cradle“) and publish the results transparently in our Environmental Product Declarations (EPD). These EPDs can be easily integrated into leading building certification systems such as DGNB, BREEAM, or LEED and are available in the download section.

Hybrid concept

Central ventilation – decentralized temperature control: The combination of central ventilation via an AHU unit and decentralized air conditioning with pumped hot water and chilled water enables efficient heating and cooling.
