Smoke control dampers

Smoke control dampers are specialized devices installed within a building's heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. Their primary function is to automatically close off ductwork to contain and prevent the spread of smoke during a fire, enhancing safety and visibility. When a fire or smoke detection system signals a threat, these dampers activate, sealing off affected areas and helping to protect occupants and facilitate safer evacuation and firefighting efforts. They are crucial components in building fire safety design, ensuring that smoke doesn't spread uncontrollably through ventilation systems.
