With over 35 years of experience, Effox-Flextor-Mader
offers time tested robust dampers to achieve a 20+
year low maintenance design life. Constructed with
carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy, and/or corrosion
resistant materials our dampers are capable of
withstanding temperatures up to 1800°F (982°C) and the most chemically punishing environments.
Our
engineering and design team is involved with every project to ensure the structural and dynamic
integrity of our products.
BUTTERFLY DAMPERS
Effox-Flextor-Mader (EFM) has installed
Butterfly Dampers
from 12 inches (305 mm) in diameter to greater than 144 inches (3658 mm) in diameter. Our

DIVERTER / STACK ISOLATION DAMPERS
Effox-Flextor-Mader (EFM) has extensive
experience in the design and supply of toggle and
pivot style Diverter Dampers for HRSG, waste heat
recovery, gas turbine, and other systems that
require diversion of the gas stream. We have
designed and installed diverter dampers in systems
ranging from small engine units to the largest
turbines in the world such as the GE Frame 7 FA &
9 FA.

GUILLOTINE / SLIDE GATE DAMPERS
Effox-Flextor-Mader (EFM)
manufactures heavy-duty low-leak slide gate and
zero-leak
Slide Gate Dampers
to provide isolation for flue gas and air systems.
Slide gates, also referred to as
Guillotine Dampers , are
required to isolate systems for maintenance
or for bypass purposes.
EFM has supplied slide gate dampers in the largest
ducting systems in the industry. We have supplied gates with duct openings of 25 feet
(7.6
m)
wide and 35 feet (10.7 m) tall.
Our zero leak guillotine dampers can be pressure and
temperature tested in our facilities to
verify leakage at system design conditions.

LOUVER DAMPERS
Effox-Flextor-Mader (EFM)
offers several styles of
Louver Dampers offers several styles of louver dampers
to meet your application and system specifications.
Our Louver Dampers are offered with a parallel blade or opposed blade design. Parallel
louvers
are primarily used for system isolation. EFM parallel blade louvers are used around the
world in
applications for bypass capability and tight shut off for the process & utility industries.

POPPET DAMPERS
Effox-Flextor-Mader (EFM)
manufactures
Poppet Dampers
which are ideal for applications that require quick cycling time and tight shutoff. Poppet
dampers are used for isolation capabilities for fabric filter applications and incineration
systems. They are engineered to control the reverse gas flow, outlet flow, and bypass flow
of
gases, thereby enhancing filtration.

RADIAL / INLET VANE DAMPERS
Radial Vane Dampers from
Effox-Flextor-Mader (EFM)
Radial vane dampers are used primarily on the inlet of centrifugal fans to direct flow and
assist in pre-spinning the flow into the wheel. Radial Vanes are commonly referred to as
Variable Inlet Vanes (VIV).
The use of a radial vane damper enhances the performance of the fan by:
-
Introducing swirl into the inlet of the fan in the direction of rotation
-
Changing the fan curve as the damper moves
-
Eliminating low-volume stalling of the fan
