ABSTRACT:
A damper and control unit for controlling air flow through a conduit comprises a movable damper having a ball-joint connection with the end of an actuating rod. The actuating rod has first and second angularly related portions and the first portion serves as a pivot element for a movable actuating plate, the second portion mounting the damper. The movable or swingable plate is arranged above an expandible and contractable actuating bellows and has a stop chain associated therewith for limiting downward swinging movement thereof in the direction of bellows contraction. The bellows has a supply line leading to the conduit upstream of the damper and a control unit is interposed in the line for determining bellows pressure. Conduit pressure and/or temperature signals are supplied to the control for bellows and damper operation as a function thereof. A seat associated with the damper is uniformly and tightly engaged whereby to seal the conduit due to the floating or ball-joint damper connection with its actuator. Bellows and actuating plate arrangement externally of the conduit results in a requirement for lesser bellows operating pressures and bellows isolation from fire code regulations.
