Volume Control Damper - VCD
BETEC CAD manufactures high quality volume control Applications:
dampers, specially designed for use in HVAC Heating GI: HVAC commercial
Ventilating and Air conditioning systems for volume, flow AL: Special e.g Hospitals, Labs, Green Building etc.
and pressure control of air within the ducts. SS: Special Applications e.g offshore works oil&gas.
The light, medium and heavy duty construction of VCD’s

allow even distribution and flow control of air at high duct
pressures and are suitable for various type of HVAC
applications.
Blade operation, either parallel or opposed in operation

fitted with tip seals to ensure minimum air leakage through
the blades.

BETEC CAD.’s Volume control dampers are offered with
either parallel or opposed blade operation. Each style has -
- - - -
-
-
distinguishing characteristics with regard to the type of
operation.
Blade Operation
Parallel blade operation-‘A’
Parallel blade damper are constructed so all the blades
move in the same direction and in parallel. Parallel blade
orientation is typically used when the damper operates in
two positions open and close. -

-
- -
-
Parallel Blade Operation Opposed Blade Operation
Opposed blade operation-‘B’
Opposed blade dampers are constructed so blades next to
each other move in opposite direction. Opposed blade
configuration is typically used on dampers that modulate
airflow.
Blade Type
‘1’ - 3V - Single skin blades are formed from a single
thickness galvanized or stainless steel, incorporating
three longitudinal V-Type grooves running the full length of
the blade to increase strength. This blade is designed for 3-V Single skin Aerofoil Aerofoil Aerofoil
low to medium, velocity and pressure applications. Material : GI / SS Material : GI Material : SS Material : AL
‘2’ - Aerofoil - Double skin blades are formed of Velocity Pressure

aluminum. This blade design results in lower resistance to VCD-B10 VCD-B10

• Pressure drop and resistance of multi- leaf damper is a

function of airspeed and varies in relation to the system's

2) If frame and blade material is same, use single alphabet.
Example : VCD-GB-11A where G = Galvanized frame and blade.

VCD-GAB-11A where G = Galvanized frame
A = Aluminium blade.
