York International Corp., Engineered Systems GroupAHU CONTROL DAMPER

December 4, 2000

A control damper-airflow monitoring station is now offered on AirPak and CurbPak air-handling units (AHUs). The damper’s design integrates a low-leakage control damper with air monitoring blades and an air straightener, all in one assembly, the company says. It is built by Ruskin, a damper manufacturer. The AMS-60 damper carries the AMCA 611 certification for airflow-measuring stations, ensuring its accuracy, leakage, and pressure drop ratings, says the company. The product is said to be more efficient than competitive units that rely on butterfly-style dampers.

Over the past decade, buildings have become more energy-efficient, heat pump performance has improved and the electric grid has become greener. These actions have led to significant reductions in emissions from building electricity consumption. However, over the same time period, building emissions from burning natural gas, fuel oil and propane have remained relatively flat.
