A range of smoke and fire dampers, manufactured by air distribution company Gilberts, has been re-engineered and launched at a significantly lower price
The company has recently launched the new range of Ductgard multi-blade smoke and fire dampers following a major value engineering exercise. The new range is easy to specify, simple to install and maintain in all types of square, rectangular, circular and oval hvac ductwork.
There are now ten control mode options, including eight fully automatic motorised versions. The motorised units now feature very low torque operating characteristics, due entirely to a re-designed linkage between the motor and the damper blades. In this smoother patented arrangement, the motor is fitted directly to the damper body reducing the number of parts and bearings and allowing the use of a smaller and lower cost drive motor.
