Control Damper
Series 9000 BF: Thermally Broken Frame
- Blades are thermally insulated through polyurethane foam injection
- With Thermal Break Technology frame
- Thermally broken frames, coupled with thermally insulated and thermally broken blades, combat condensation and freeze-up.
- Creates a thermal barrier between outside air temperature and desired interior temperature
- High thermal efficiency contributes to energy savings.
- Tamco silicone seals provide outstanding dynamic fatigue resistance, ensuring consistent minimal leakage rate performance and sealing longevity.
- Tamco’s dual bearing linkage system is self-sealing, self-lubricating, and non-absorbent, resulting in a maintenance-free performance.
Caution: Never use any lubricants, such as grease or silicone, on Tamco dampers.

Series 9000 BF Thermally Insulated, Control Damper with Thermally Broken Frames:
- In conditions of high relative humidity, where condensation and freeze-up are a concern
- When there are extreme temperature differentials
- If the damper is closed approximately 80% of the time
- For air intake and exhaust
- Where low leakage, maintenance-free dampers are required for ducted or non-ducted outside walls, or plenums
- This grade of silicone and its leakage resistant properties are virtually unaffected by cold winter temperatures. The operating temperature range is -40°F (-40°C) to 212°F (100°C).
Leakage Class 1A at 1 in. w.g. (0.25 kPa) static pressure differential. Standard air leakage data is certified under the AMCA Certified Ratings Program.
| Damper Width Inches (mm) | 1 in. w.g.0.25 kPa | 4 in. w.g. 1.0 kPa | 6 in. w.g.1.5 kPa | 8 in. w.g.2.0 kPa |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.0 to 12.0 (0 to 305) | 1A | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 12.1 to 36.0 (306 to 915) | 1A | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 36.1 to 48.0 (916 to 1220) | 1A | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 48.1 to 60.0 (1221 to 1524) | 1A | 1 | n/a | n/a |
ECT – Extreme Cold Temperature Option:
- Specifically designed for extreme cold temperatures, below -40°F (-40°C) and down to -100°F (-73°C)
MR – Moisture Resistance Option:
- Excellent cold climate solution for applications where dampers are exposed to extended periods of high humidity or high moisture, such as water treatment facilities, municipal pools, greenhouses and cooling towers.
- Cost effective alternative to the Salt Water Resistance option for applications where salt spray is not a concern.

Recommendation: In applications where the humidity level is unusually elevated, or where there are extremely high levels of dust and dirt particles, Tamco recommends that the damper linkage and bearing system should be cleaned once a year. This can be done by blowing away dust using compressed air. If needed, a domestic-strength steam cleaner can be used to loosen dirt, which can then be blown out with compressed air, along with any remaining water droplets.
SP – Standard profile
- Manufactured with 4” (101.6 mm) deep frames
- Manufactured with blades that are a maximum 6” (152.4 mm) deep.
NP – Narrow Profile
- Manufactured with 4” (101.6 mm) deep frames
- Manufactured with blades that are a maximum of 4” (101.6 mm) deep.
- Space saving narrow profile is ideal for space restrictive installations.
