Function

For balancing the volume flows of duct sections and air terminal devices the differential pressure must be set on the flow adjustment dampers. The value to be set for a certain required volume flow at a given differential pressure can be taken from the diagram with setting values that each flow adjustment damper carries. This value can then be set using the hand wheel with the position indicator (continuous adjustment between 0 and 10).
