The Sand Trap Louver is an external louver used in dry, dusty, or sandy environments. Specially designed to remove the bulk of airborne sand and dust from inlet air whilst maintaining reasonable airflow rate characteristics by means of a special double U-blade design. Sand and dust are evacuated from the base of the louver by a special sand collection/dispersion cell, keeping maintenance to a minimum. The sand trap louvers can be used as natural ventilators or to alleviate the load on the main filtration stages of air conditioning equipment.

The sand trap louvers are designed with a set of U channels arranged in series on the side Composed of two sets of inverted U channels mounted vertically on two opposite rows. This arrangement creates resistance or barrier for the sand particles in the intake air and thus settles down.
