Industries we have fabricated Backdraft Dampers for include the petrochemical, power generation and construction industries. Diversification is a word that defines us here at EMW and we stand eager to meet your particular and special need for a custom fabricated backdraft dampers.
What are Backdraft Dampers?
At the most basic level, a damper is an adjustable plate, or assembly of plates, which is used to control or to alternately block and allow a draft or an airflow. Backdraft dampers specifically designed to permit air to flow in only one direction, as for example in an exhaust duct where air needs to flow out of a building, but outside air needs to be prevented from flowing in through that same duct. Generally, backdraft dampers remains in a “closed” position except when air is flowing in the direction intended. The backdraft damper may be designed so that the airflow itself opens the damper to allow the exhaust to take place. Backdraft dampers may, however, be designed to be opened or closed manually or via a motor, if need be for the given application. Counterbalanced backdraft dampers have weights or springs added to the blades in order to help or slow the opening or closing action as may be required.
EMW’s expertise and capabilities as a full service custom precision metal fabricator allow us to form and fabricate backdraft dampers from the most basic to the most elaborate and precise, in materials including mild steel, galvanized, aluminum or stainless steel.
Custom Backdraft Damper Fabrication Services
EMW has the ability to fabricate a unique and custom backdraft damper for your application. We excel at both prototyping and production runs. We fabricate backdraft dampers and all other products to each customer’s special requirements.
Formed to Fit Your Requirements
Our backdraft dampers are created through a metal forming process (not through a metal extrusion process), which gives us the flexibility required to fabricate a unique damper product that fits the requirements of each customer’s application. EMW’s metal forming process also allows for the fabrication of a damper that meets close tolerances.
Our Capabilities Include:
- CAD/CAM Design and Programming
- CNC precision shearing up to 12 ft. in 1/4" carbon steel, 3/8" aluminum, 3/16 stainless steel
- CNC punching up to 1/4" plate
- 12ft. press brakes up to 350 ton with CNC back gauging
- Saw, torch, and plasma cutting
- Mig and tig welding all alloys
- Rolling up to 1/8" x 5ft. long
- Structural Fabrication (Skids, enclosures, rails, ladders, stairs, stands and more)
- Water Jet precision cutting with a 12ft.x12ft working envelope
A variety of finishing options are available when needed.
We have finishing options (powder coat or wet paint) available when needed. Although we are not paint experts by trade or claim to be, we do offer coating/application services through outside sources. All coating will be at the customer's request and specification. In order that the customer receives the proper coating for their exact application all specifications must come from and be approved by the customer prior to coating. EMW does not make coating recommendations for any application. Essentially, you tell us the kind of coating or finish you need or prefer and we will make sure that coating or finish is applied properly.
Whether you have CAD drawings ready or just some verbal instructions to provide, you can be confident that EMW has the experience, know-how and determination to follow-through on your project and fabricate a custom backdraft damper that will fit your application.
