A terminal unit for a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a housing defining a plenum and having a first panel and a second panel disposed opposite each other. The first panel has a first outlet opening and a second outlet opening, and the second panel has a first inlet opening configured to receive a first air flow and a second inlet opening configured to receive a second air flow. The terminal unit includes a sound attenuator including an inlet configured to receive the first air flow and an outlet configured to discharge the first air flow into the housing via the first inlet opening. The terminal unit further includes first and second blowers. The first blower is configured to discharge air from the plenum via the first outlet opening, and the second blower is configured to discharge air from the plenum via the second outlet opening.

Sound attenuator for a terminal unit

A terminal unit of a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a fan configured to provide an airflow through the HVAC unit by drawing the airflow into a fan inlet and expelling the airflow out of a fan outlet. The terminal unit also includes an inlet diffuser disposed upstream of the fan inlet relative to a direction of the airflow, wherein the inlet diffuser includes a first layer of perforated metal and a second layer of perforated metal disposed between the first layer of perforated metal and the fan inlet.

Multi-layer inlet diffuser for a terminal unit

A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) unit includes a terminal unit. The terminal unit includes a housing having a first panel bordering a return airflow path, a second panel bordering an additional airflow path, and a separating wall disposed between and bordering the return airflow path and the additional airflow path. The terminal unit also includes a sound attenuator formed by the first panel and the separating wall.
