Exhaust damper (Open/Closed) |
The straightforward use of the Exhaust air damper is to shut close the exhaust air duct while the AHU is stopped or in recirculation mode.
Closing of the damper can be delayed while stopping the Extract air fan. This prevents under-pressure and possible damage to the ductwork created by the de-energized but still free-spinning fan.
The exhaust air damper can be changed for or backed-up with the damper on the extract side of the AHU. The placement of the damper in the flowchart can be altered accordingly.
