MODEL : M-VCD
Manual Operated Volume Control Damper

INTRODUCTION
Two damper arrangements are used for air-handling system flow control:
parallel-blade and opposed-blade.Parallel-blade dampers are adequate for two position control
and can be used for modulating control when they are the primary source of pressure drop and
directional air flow is not a problem. Opposed-blade damper are preferable, because they normally
provided better control.
Revent standard manual volume control dampers are come with opposed blade 3'V’ style
arrangement with concealed linkage and brass bush/bearing press fit into galvanized steel frame.
However parallel blade 3'V’ style arrangement also available as alternative.

PRESSURE DROP DATA

PRESSURE DROP DATA

Pressure drop testing was conducted in accordance with AMCA Standard 500-D using Figure 5.3.
All data has been corrected to represent standard air at a density of 0.075 Ib/ft 3 (1.201kg/m3)
Actual pressure drop found in any HVAC system is a combination of many factors.This pressure drop
information along with an analysis of other system influences should be used to estimate actual
pressure losses for a damper installed in a given HVAC system
AMCA FIGURES

Figure 5.3 illustrates a fully ducted damper. This configuration has the lowest pressure drop of the
three test configurations because entrance and exit losses are minimized by straight duct runs
upstream and downstream of the damper.

Figure 5.2 illustrates a ducted damper exhausting air into an open area. This configuration has a
lower pressure drop than Figure 5.5because entrance losses are minimized by a straight duct run
upstream of the damper.

Figure 5.5 illustrates a plenum mounted damper. This configuration has the highest pressure
drop because of extremely high entrance and exit losses due to the sudden changes of area in
the system.
