ABSTRACT:
In a damper having an opening therethrough, an aperture defining blade member is movable between a first position, in which the aperture is aligned with the opening to permit the flow of fluid through the damper, and a second position, in which the blade member substantially blocks the flow of fluid through the damper opening. A sealing member is located around the periphery of the opening adjacent the blade member to substantially abut the blade member in both the first and second blade positions. A pressurized fluid such as air is supplied to the sealing member to promote flow of fluid between the sealing member and the blade member into the opening, and thereby substantially to prevent the leakage of fluid out of the opening between the blade member and the sealing member.
