Critical Environments

DSR/DSS –
Bubble-Tight Isolation Damper

Gas-tight isolation for critical environments

DSR/DSS Gas-Tight Isolation Dampers are heavy-duty stainless steel shut-off dampers
designed to provide positive containment in critical ventilation systems.

In the standard configuration, the damper achieves gas-tight shut-off with bubble-tight sealing when closed against the rated differential pressure. Performance is verified through pressure decay testing in line with DSR/DSS Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) procedures.

Ideal for high-performance and safety-critical applications, DSR/DSS dampers are suited to laboratory exhaust systems, pharmaceutical facilities, clean rooms, hazardous gas environments, and mission-critical HVAC installations.

True gas-tight (bubble-tight) isolation

Provides bubble-tight shut-off performance up to 7.5 kPa differential pressure when fully closed.

Controlled dynamic operation

Designed for safe opening and closing at system pressures up to 4.5 kPa differential pressure and air velocities up to 20 m/s.

High-integrity shaft sealing

Compression-type PTFE (teflon) packing gland ensures zero external (ambient) leakage up to 10 kPa.

Low operating torque design

Perimeter blade seal configuration (without blade stop seal) reduces friction and actuator torque requirements.

Low pressure loss

Unobstructed blade profile in the open position minimises airflow resistance.

Elevated temperature operation

Rated for continuous operation at temperatures up to 150°C.

Fully welded stainless-steel construction

Heavy-gauge frame and reinforced double-skin blade ensure structural stability under high differential pressure.

Optional

  • Loose gaskets
  • Loose flanges
  • Viton blade seals
  • Multiple finish options
