Functional description

Non-return dampers open and close automatically.

When the system is in operation, the blades open when air flows.

When the system is shut down, the blades close due to their weight. They safely prevent air from flowing against the intended airflow direction.

Nominal sizes	200 × 215 to 1600 × 1615 mm
Volume flow rate range	110 – 6460 l/s or 396 – 23256 m³/h at 2.5 m/s
Total differential pressure	25 Pa at 2.5 m/s
Maximum differential pressure in closing direction	100 Pa
Operating temperature	–20 to 80 °C

Quick sizing tables provide a good overview of the volume flow rates with an airflow velocity of 2.5 m/s. Intermediate values can be interpolated.

Installation details, Basic information and nomenclature

Installation into an internal wall, without installation subframe

Installation and commissioning

Horizontal airflow: Vertical installation
Vertical airflow: Installation into ducts with an upward airflow; horizontal installation
Straight upstream section required (at least B + H) on the positive pressure side of fans
Ensure a gradual start-up of fans to avoid a sudden pressure increase
Only for installation in internal spaces
For external walls the damper should be combined with a Type WG-KUL external weather louvre
