OVERVIEW : WM-10 Figure n° 1

WM-10 control dampers are a new series of products from the 1 Telaio
FRAME
WM series. The WM-10 series of control dampers are suitable
for the application on square and rectangular ducts. The
control of these dampers can be manual, electric or 2 BLADE
Aletta
pneumatic, according to the needs of the ventilation system.
The installation of these components allows the control of the
air flow rate variation (VAV) or the pressure variation control
on several kinds of plants. Specifically: 3 HOLDING JOINT

c) modulated or total closing

WM-10 control damper is new in its type due to the

STOPPER

innovative movement transmission system of gear-drives, the

non existent friction of the mechanism, the assembly method
of the materials used, the particular requirement of air flow
control with the wing design of the movable blades and the MANUAL COMMAND DETAIL
integrated interchangeable controls, allow for a diverse
integration and installation in ventilation systems.

TECHNICAL DATA
NSTALLATION PROCEDURE

CHARACTERISTICS :
Damper
Mobile closing system mounted into an air duct, designed to
control and close air flow.
Frame, materials and construction method
The frame is manufactured in extruded aluminium and
designed to withstand the lateral stress from to air pressure,
and built with lateral frame to protect the drive gears.
Flange
Manufactured with 30 mm height.
Mounting
By screws through damper flange and duct flange or by self-
threading screws through damper flange and air-treatment unit
panel.
MOUNTING SYSTEM :
Damper mounted inside (figure n°2) or at the beginning or at
the end of the air duct (figure n°3 and 4) fixed by the frame
flange to the duct flange. The control damper can be mounted
on the floor or ceiling (figure n°5).

Blades, materials and construction system

The blades are manufactured from extruded aluminium with a
particular profile in order to be a better sealing surface and a
good strength to air pressure.

Transversal reinforcement
Present on all dampers with B dimension wider than 1300 mm.

Finishing
Extruded aluminium.

Gear drive, materials and construction system

Opposed rotation gears made from PBT with 30% of glass fibre.
The gear drive is closed and protected on the frame. The
materials used allow a use between a a temperature range
between - 40 °C and + 130 °C.

ACOUSTIC POWER LEVEL

The diagram shows the values of acoustic level

in dB(A) as a result of the frontal velocity and
pressure drop. The acoustic levels found on the
diagram are relative to an air section 1 m². For
other sections see correction factor K in below
table.

Mechanism, manual control: The basic kit (figure n° 7) includes a handle for the movement and locking, a transmission lever
for the strength of the transmission shaft axle and a numbered modular plate inserted in the internal mechanism, inside the
frame.
Figure no. 8

Mechanism, servo control: The complete kit (figure no. 8) guarantees the functionality of the mechanism via means of an
electrical signal. It includes the transmission axle and adjustable plate fixed to the frame. This plate is drilled in order to fix
standard actuators available on the market.
