Research & Development

Content image

Systemair puts significant assets on development of energy efficient, environment friendly and user friendly ventilation products. We have five development centers located in Sweden, Germany, Canada, Slovakia and the U.S. at our disposal, and our more than 80 engineers form 13 development teams on three continents all working with product development. With our broad geographic reach, we can carefully follow current trends in various parts of the world. We also actively influence future trends by taking part in the specification of new International and national standards.

Climate chambers

Capable of reaching temperatures down to -40C or +40C, it offers designers the opportunity to test out new concepts and validate designs in house. Airflow up to 3500 cfm.

The R&D team


A project management system is used to secure an effective development process. The designers are following new products from idea to production and a ProEngineer system is used to design and visualize new products.

Air terminal device

54 m2 room for velocity measurements of air distribution from supply diffusers. A laser beam is used to visualize air movements. Measurements according to EN 12238:2001.

Velocity profile

Measuring of velocity profile at air curtain according to AMCA 220-05.

Acoustic room

230 m3 reverberation room standing on springs to achieve background noise below 10 dBA. Measurements are performed with an frequency analyser and a rotating microphone boom. Accreditation for measurements according to AMCA 300-96.
Airflow and acoustic measurements are performed simultaneously.  Accreditation for measurements according to AMCA 210-99.

Control room

All the test facilities are controlled through a data acquisition system with more than 250 channels. During the test the design engineers can simultaneously observe the results over internet from anywhere in the world. The results are stored in an SQL database for direct electronic publishing.

Electrical safety

For measurements of temperature and electrical safety for motors and heating products up to 55 kW and winding temperatures in motors under running conditions. Measurements according to EN 60335-1.
