Miami-Dade Louvers
The ECD-545-MD and EFD-637-MD are engineered and tested to withstand extreme loads,
debris impact, and cyclic fatigue failure associated with the severe weather effects of
hurricanes (ECD-545-MD has Miami-Dade approval # 11-0429.02 and the EFD-637-MD has
Miami-Dade approval # 11-0429.01).
Constructed from 6063-T5 extruded aluminum, both models have single section assemblies up
to 48" wide by 144" high. Specially designed water-resistant seam covers further enhance
performance and aesthetics of these industry leading products. Single-section louvers are now
available with the option of a factory-installed sleeve which allows louver installation without
any mechanical anchoring to the building condition.

All-Lite architectural products are designed for use in most geographical areas within the United States. All-Lite can also design, modify or reinforce standard products for special requirements, such as high wind, heavy snow, industrial environments, special
mounting conditions, etc. Consult your local representative for more information.
AMCA defines the beginning point of water penetration as the free area velocity at the intersection of a simple linear regression of test data and the line of 0.01 ounces of water per square foot of free area and is measured through a 48"x 48" louver during a 15 minute period.
The AMCA water penetration test provides a method for comparing louver models and designs as to their efficiency in resisting the penetration of rainfall under specific lab conditions. All-Lite recommends that intake louvers are selected with a reasonable margin of
safety below the beginning point of water penetration in order to avoid unwanted penetration during severe storm conditions. AMCA Wind Driven Rain Ratings based upon a test louver size having 39-3/8” x 39-3/8” core area.

Wind-Driven Rain Louvers
Backed by AMCA certification our wind-driven rain louvers offer exceptional protection under the most severe conditions and are
available in frame depths from 4" to 7". The closely spaced vertical blade design of the Florida Building Code approved
ECV-645 provides our most effective wind-driven rain performance with 100% effectiveness at wind velocities up to 50 mph and
rainfall up to 8 in/hr. When aesthetic requirements demand a more conventional horizontal blade profile our EFJ-745 is the ideal
solution with 5" on center traditional J-blade fascia and 100% effectiveness @ 3 in/hr rainfall.

Drainable Louvers
Drainable blade louvers are designed to prevent water penetration in non-wind-driven rain
applications by collecting water in the blade gutters and channeling it into frame downspouts
and away from airflow paths. Our ERD-645 incorporates a recessed mullion and
downspout that provides the appearance of a continuous drainable blade design.

Drainable Head Louvers
Drainable head louvers blend the aesthetic appeal of a non-drainable blade with the high performance water penetration
protection of a drainable blade louver. These louvers incorporate a drainable head member to capture water that
cascades down the face of the building and channels it into downspouts and away from the airflow paths.
These louvers are available in a wide array of anodized and painted
finishes including custom color matching. They are available with
an optional hidden vertical mullion.

Non-Drainable Louvers
Available in a wide array of blade shapes and frame depths non-drainable louvers
offer value and economy for exhaust applications or intake conditions where
protection against water infiltration is not critical. Optional hidden mullions provide a
continuous blade appearance on multiple section assemblies. Ideally suited for special
shapes and transitional designs.

Certified Ratings:
All-Lite certifies that models EFJ-437, EFK-437, EFJ-445, and EFK-445 shown hereon are licensed to bear the AMCA
seal. The ratings shown are based on test and procedures performed in accordance with AMCA Publication 511 and
comply with the requirements of the AMCA Certified Ratings Program. The AMCA Certified Ratings Seal applies to
air performance and water penetration ratings. Models EFJ-245, EFY-245, EFJ-430, EFK-430, EFY-445, EFK-637, and
EFJ-645 are not licensed to bear the AMCA seal.
AMCA defines the beginning point of water penetration as the free area velocity at the intersection of a simple linear regression of test data and the line of 0.01 ounces of water per square foot of free area and is measured through a 48"x 48" louver during a 15 minute period.
The AMCA water penetration test provides a method for comparing louver models and designs as to their efficiency in resisting the penetration of rainfall under specific lab conditions. All-Lite recommends that intake louvers are selected with a reasonable margin of safety
below the beginning point of water penetration in order to avoid unwanted penetration during severe storm conditions.

Operable Louvers
Operable blade louvers provide weather protection when open and positive shutoff when no airflow is required. These
units incorporate center pivoted blades that can be controlled manually with a pull chain, hand quadrant or hand crank; or
automatically with electric or pneumatic actuators.

Formed Metal Louvers
Typically formed from galvanized steel, these units offer an economical solution for basic
ventilation requirements. Optionally available in a wide array of exotic metals including
copper and stainless steel our formed metal louvers can also serve to accent building
architecture or withstand corrosion in caustic environments.

Acoustical Louvers
Recommended for installation in noisy environments, acoustical louvers incorporate insulated blades that restrict sound
transmission through the louver over a wide range of frequencies. Our airfoil blade designs offer lower static pressure loss
and softer aesthetics for critical airflow performance applications.

Combination Louvers
EXD Combination louvers feature stationary front blades and operable rear blades to
ensure proper weather protection when open as well as a consistent appearance in
both the open and closed positions. Optional low leakage seals provide further
environmental protection in the closed position. Operable blade louvers provide weather
protection when open and positive shutoff when no airflow is required. These units incorporate
center pivoted blades that can be controlled manually with a pull chain, hand quadrant or hand
crank; or automatically with electric or pneumatic actuators.
EBE-445 and EBI-445 incorporate backdraft damper blades for automatic shutoff when there
is no airflow and can be used for either exhaust and intake applications.

Sight Screens
Whether the design calls for total sight concealment, partial screening, high volume airflow, specialty shapes, or thermal
shading, our sight screens are engineered to meet the most stringent project parameters while satisfying exacting
aesthetic requirements. The unique concealed support system of the HT-401 ensures proper structural support and a
true continuous blade look without the use of unsightly frames or vertical angles.

Grilles
Custom designed to meet each project’s unique requirements, our extruded aluminum
grilles are ideally suited for architectural accents, facades, screening and security barriers
either inside or outside the building. In addition to traditional welded construction we can
engineer unique and creative concealed fastening systems and hidden weld joints that
offer improved aesthetics and superior structural integrity.

Sunshades
Our sunshades provide distinctive architectural style to a building’s exterior while considerably reducing glare. They
do not cause snow load or water infiltration problems associated with solid membrane awnings. Sunshades also reduce
heat from sunlight in the summer. This keeps the building cool and saves energy, ideal for sustainable or “green” building
construction. Configured to meet each project’s individual requirements, our team can transform even the most complex
concepts into a stunning reality. Our standard sunshade information is shown below.
