Fabric Wrapped Acoustical Panel CSI Specifications

A The Fabric Wrapped Acoustical Panel shall be the BAD™ Panel as manufactured by RPG® Diffusor Systems, Inc.

B The Fabric Wrapped Acoustical Panel shall be fabricated from molded fiberglass cores covered with a rigid template. Edges shall be square and plum to within a tolerance of 1/16". The Fabric Wrapped Acoustical Panel shall be of the thickness and sizes specified.

C Fiberglass cores shall have a minimum density of not less than 6lbs/ft cubed (or specify other desired density).

D Provide mechanical clip mounting system (or specify other desired mounting such as construction adhesive or hook and loop fasteners) as per manufacturer’s recommendations.

E Absorption Coefficients and Noise Reduction Coefficient for the product shall be measured by an independent, accredited NVLAP facility according to the test methods as defined by ASTM C 423 and ASTM E 795. Random incidence Absorption Coefficients for a 1" thick, 6lbs/ft cubed density product in a Type A mounting shall be as follows:

125Hz 250Hz 500Hz 1000Hz 2000Hz 4000Hz NRC
0.07 0.30 1.00 1.19 1.03 0.91 0.80

F Diffusion Coefficients for the product shall be measured in accordance with the recommendations of the Audio Engineering Society Working Group SC-04-02 boundary measurement technique. The directional diffusion coefficient is given by the standard deviation of the 1/3-octave polar response, for a given angle of incidence, and normalized by the response of a flat panel of similar size. The average incidence diffusion coefficients determined at 5° intervals between ± 85° are listed below at octave-band centers. The mean and standard deviation (SD) of the 1/3 octave-band coefficients are also tabulated.

1000Hz 2000Hz 4000Hz 8000Hz 16000Hz MEAN SD
0.61 0.51 0.42 0.43 0.38 0.47 0.09


G Flame Spread and Smoke Developed shall be tested by an independent, accredited NVLAP facility according to the test methods as defined by ASTM E 84 and NFPA 255. The BAD™ Panel shall have a composite Flame Spread Rating of less than 25 and a Smoke Development of less than 450.

H The Fabric Wrapped Acoustical Panel shall be supplied in a Guilford of Maine FR701 fabric, color to be as specified.

I The overall dimensions shall be 1' 11-5/8"(H) x 1' 11-5/8"(W) x 1"(D) (specify other dimensions if desired) and weigh no more than 4 pounds.
