A Single Flap Damper is a type of mechanical device used to control the flow of air or gases in ventilation, exhaust, and air conditioning systems. It typically consists of a single movable flap (or blade) that opens or closes to regulate airflow through ducts, chimneys, or pipes. Single flap dampers are commonly found in HVAC systems, industrial ventilation systems, and various types of exhaust systems.

Key Features

• Simple Design: The single flap damper is characterized by its straightforward design, usually involving a flap hinged on one side that pivots to block or allow airflow.
• Manual or Automated Operation: Depending on the application, the damper can be manually operated (via a handle or lever) or automated (using actuators, motors, or pneumatic controls).
• Materials: Single flap dampers are often made from durable materials such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum, or other alloys, depending on the environment and the type of gases or air the damper is designed to control.
• Sealing: The flap typically includes seals to ensure that it provides a tight closure when it is in the closed position, preventing air or gas from escaping.
• Adjustable Control: In some systems, the damper can be adjusted to allow for variable airflow, providing control over the ventilation rate or the flow of gases.
