Leakage testing was conducted in accordance with AMCA
Standard 500-D and is expressed as CFM per sq. ft. of
damper face area. All data has been corrected to represent
standard air at 0.075 lb/ft

Pressure Drop
36” x 36” Damper
manufacturer’s printed application and performance data 
including pressure, velocity and temperature limitations 
shall be submitted for approval showing damper suitable 
for pressures to 2.5 in. wg (623 Pa), velocities to 2000 fpm 
(10.2m/s) and temperatures to 180°F (82ºC). Testing and 
ratings to be in accordance with AMCA Standard 500-D.
Basis of design is Greenheck model ES-30.
Performance data results from testing a 36” x  36” damper 
in accordance with AMCA Standard 500-D using Figure
5.5 (no duct either side). All data has been corrected to
represent standard air at 0.075 lb/ft
(1.201 kg/m
