Application
Typical application for our dampers:
Oil and GAS
Pharmaceutical
Wind Farm and Renewable Energy
Nuclear
Industrial
Note: VCDs offered by Mole HVAC Equipment Ltd are Non Isolating (blades do not seal).
if isolating dampers are required, please refer to our range of Shut of Dampers (SOD).
Material
Generally 2.0 or 3.0mm thick fully welded 316L St/St construction. Other materials and thicknesses are available to suit client requirements.
Available materials include:
For heavy duty material execution refer to Vent Stack product range.
Flanges
Flanges are formed from the parent material to provide a flange width of 40, 50 or 75 80?mm. The flanges are normally drilled to the pitches and diameters defined in BS EN ISO15138:2018 or to the Client specification. At the customer’s request we may also deliver dampers with undrilled/ blank flanges.
Lifting
Where necessary or required lifting points are incorporated within the damper casing.
Sizes
Standard damper sizes are between 100x100mm and 2000x2000mm with a depth of 200mm. Larger damper sizes can be provided by combining multiple dampers. Smaller depths can be provided if required but the damper blades may extend beyond the casing.
Blades
2 x 1.5mm double skin, aerofoil construction. Spot welded and bolted to the damper shafts. Where necessary longer blades are additionally fitted with stiffening channels for increased rigidity. Standard design is for damper blades to be located within the 200mm depth of the casing.
Shafts
Shafts are 16mm dia and removable to allow bearing replacement.
Bearings
Low friction coated stainless steel bushes.
Controls
Manual handle travel within a quadrant lockable in position allowing damper adjustment between fully open and closed positions.
Other control options, including pneumatic or electric actuator are also available.
Indication
316L Stainless steel open/closed indicators fixed to handle quadrant. Dampers can also be provided with high visibility indication beacons and, where required, with remote position indication (On/Off or continuous/analog)
Nameplate
316L stainless steel nameplate containing agreed information is attached to the damper casing
