ABSTRACT:
A variable volume terminal unit for an air handling system includes a duct having an air by-pass outlet in its top wall, and a deflector blade that can be moved between a "straight through" position in which the by-pass outlet is closed, and a position in which at least some of the air flowing through the duct is deflected through the by-pass outlet. The deflector blade is of an angled shape selected so that, in the deflecting position, the blade presents a substantially symmetrical surface to the incoming air, while in the straight-through position, the blade closes the by-pass outlet.
