Basic Damper Operations:
There are 3 basic modes of operation for industrial dampers illustrated on the right:
modulation, diversion and isolation.
Some types of dampers such as guillotines are best suited for isolation/shutoff; while louvers are ideal for modulation; and diverters, as their name implies, perform optimally diverting air and gas flows. Some industrial dampers such as louvers and diverters, regulate air and gas movement all 3 ways, whereas guillotines are not recommended for modulation and butterflies are not specified for diversion.
Our dedicated professionals will work with you to determine the best industrial damper for your unique application.
