American ALDES Cape Backdraft Dampers - 4" Backdraft damper. The Cape Backdraft Damper is designed to overcome the inefficiencies and limitations of traditional gravity or butterfly dampers. It incorporates a special fabric sleeve attached to the interior of a metal sleeve. The fabric sleeve will allow air to pass through in the desired direction of flow with minimal reduction in airflow.
features
• Minimal pressure loss in airflow direction. (Standard spring or gravity dampers offer more resistance to airflow and require higher opening pressures. At maximum opening, standard dampers have a smaller free area and create more turbulence, resulting in more static pressure loss and noise.)
• May be used in any orientation, other than for downward airflow
• Resists clogging by air-borne lint, making it an ideal damper for use with clothes dryer exhaust
• Silent operation
