Overview

A GI volume control damper is a manually set damper used to balance airflow in galvanized steel ductwork. Per the datasheet it has a galvanized steel interlocking hat-channel frame, extruded aluminium double-skin airfoil blades in opposed action (parallel available), 12 mm square zinc-plated axles, linkage concealed in the frame and a die-cast hand quadrant; motorized actuators of 24 V or 230 V are optional. The product page lists frame sizes from 300 × 300 mm to 1500 × 1000 mm. No UL fire or smoke rating applies to volume control dampers.
