Weight Adjustment
Heavy-Duty Backdraft Dampers
SERIES 7600 WT WEIGHT ADJUSTMENT:
ADJUST RESISTANCE TO OPEN
- The angle of the external weight crankarm and the number of weights per crankarm will be preset at the factory, to maximize the resistance to opening.
- If installation conditions require field-adjustment to accelerate or delay the opening of the blades, loosen the external crankarm screws and rotate the external weight crankarm(s) until the desired angle is achieved.
- Retighten the external crankarm screws.
- Further adjustment can be made by increasing or reducing the number of weights on the external crankarm(s), or by sliding the weights up or down along the crankarm(s).
