Outdoor damper (Open/Closed) |
The straightforward use of the outdoor air damper is to shut close the intake in the air duct while the AHU is stopped or in recirculation mode.
Closing of the damper can be delayed while stopping the Supply air fan. This prevents under-pressure and possible damage to the ductwork created by the de-energized but still free-spinning fan.
