Control Damper
Series 9000: Thermally Insulated
- Blades are thermally insulated through polyurethane foam injection.
- Optimum placement of three thermal breaks along the blades isolates the warm and cold sides of the damper.
- Non-metallic side seals minimize thermal bridging across damper surfaces.
- These design features combine to control the forces of radiation, convection, conduction, and infiltration. This ensures blade insulating effectiveness.
- Extremely flexible silicone side seals and EPDM blade seals are supplied as standard.
- 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 Thermally Insulated, Control Damper:
- If coil freeze-up is a concern
- For air handler intake and exhaust
- If the damper is closed approximately 50 % of the time
- Where low leakage, maintenance-free dampers are required for ducted or non-ducted outside walls, or plenums
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.
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.

SC – Severe Cold Temperature Option:
- Extruded silicone blade and frame seals
- Silicone grade has leakage resistant properties that are virtually unaffected by cold winter temperatures, as the silicone retains flexibility down to -40°F (-40°C).
MR – Moisture Resistance Option:
- Stainless steel hardware replaces zinc-plated components.
SW – Salt Water Resistance Option:
- Extruded aluminum frames, blades and hardware are clear anodized to a depth of 0.7 mil. (18 microns).
- Blade and frame seals are extruded silicone.
- All zinc-plated, steel hardware is replaced with stainless steel, protecting hardware from rust and corrosion.
