In this paper we present a statistical study of the Hα line profiles of 120 Be-type stars using the model proposed by Danezis et al. (2003) and Lyratzi & Danezis (2004). This model proposes that the density layers which produce the Hα line lie in different regions in the stellar atmosphere. In the Be-type stellar atmospheres, there are two regions that can produce the Hα satellite components. The first one lies in the chromosphere and the second one in the cool extended envelope. By fitting the Hα line profiles with the line function of the proposed model we are able to calculate: a) For the chromospheric absorption components we calculated the rotational and radial velocities as well as the optical depth. b) For the emission and absorption components which are created in the cool extended envelope we calculated the radial velocities, the FWHM and the optical depth. Finally, we present the relation between these parameters with the spectral subtype and the luminosity class.
