They are used to control and isolate sections of ductwork, particularly in applications with high-temperature and high-pressure conditions.
Guillotine Dampers
Airtight shutoff for high-temperature and heavy-duty applications.
We are leading Guillotine Dampers manufacturers in Mumbai, India, specializing in high-performance solutions for industrial airflow control. It is a type of isolation damper used to block or regulate the flow of air or gases in ducts or pipes. It features a vertically moving blade, which operates in a linear motion, similar to a guillotine. These dampers are typically used in applications where a complete shut-off or isolation of the airflow is required, such as in power plants, chemical plants, and incinerators.
The working principle of a Guillotine Damper involves the movement of a single blade that slides vertically within a track system. When fully extended, the blade closes off the duct, effectively stopping airflow. The blade is driven by electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic actuators, and can be equipped with fail-safe mechanisms to ensure proper operation in case of power loss. These dampers are known for their reliable sealing capabilities and high shutoff efficiency
