Radial Vane Damper

Vortex(variable inlet vane dampers) dampers are used at the fan inlet to spin the entering air or gas in the direction of fan wheel rotation. Depending on damper size and operating conditions, Flexico offers cantilevered blade and center hub support blade designs.

Center hub vortex dampers are designed for clean air fans operating at high static and velocity pressures. The center blade hub incorporates spherical sleeve bearings, which are high-strength, self-lubricating, and self-aligning for easy maintenance.

Cantilevered blades with integral inlet cones are used for corrosive applications where a more precise pre-spinning of air is required. Vortex damper air spins directly into the eye for accurate air control.
