Product Specifications

Technical details and manufacturing context for Air Blower/Damper

Definition
An integrated component within combustion systems that combines an air blower to supply combustion air with a damper to regulate airflow volume and pressure, ensuring optimal fuel-air mixture and combustion efficiency.
Working Principle
The blower generates airflow through mechanical impellers or fans, while the damper adjusts airflow by varying the opening size through manual, pneumatic, or electric actuators to control combustion air supply.
Common Materials
Galvanized steel, Stainless steel, Aluminum alloy
Technical Parameters
  • Diameter or dimensions of the blower outlet/damper opening (mm) Customizable
Components / BOM
  • Blower Housing
    Encloses and directs airflow from the impeller
    Material: Galvanized steel
  • Impeller/Fan
    Rotates to generate airflow through centrifugal or axial action
    Material: Aluminum alloy
  • Damper Blade
    Adjustable plate that regulates airflow by changing opening size
    Material: Stainless steel
  • Actuator
    Mechanism that controls damper position (manual, pneumatic, or electric)
    Material: Steel/Plastic composite
Engineering Reasoning
0.5-2.0 bar differential pressure, 0-100% damper opening, -20°C to 150°C ambient temperature
Structural failure at 3.5 bar differential pressure, bearing seizure at 120°C lubricant temperature, damper jamming at 0.1mm shaft misalignment
Design Rationale: High-cycle fatigue from pressure pulsations exceeding 0.3 bar amplitude, thermal expansion mismatch between stainless steel shaft (17.3 μm/m·K) and bronze bearings (18.0 μm/m·K), particulate accumulation exceeding 50μm clearance
Risk Mitigation (FMEA)
Trigger Corrosive gas ingress (SO₂ > 25 ppm) in combustion exhaust
Mode: Pitting corrosion on damper blade surfaces exceeding 0.5mm depth
Strategy: 316L stainless steel construction with 3mm corrosion allowance, hermetic sealing with Viton gaskets
Trigger Unbalanced aerodynamic loading from flow separation at 15° damper angle
Mode: Shaft deflection exceeding 0.05mm causing bearing wear acceleration
Strategy: Aerodynamically profiled NACA 0018 damper blades, tapered roller bearings with 50kN dynamic load rating
