Damper actuators play a crucial role in the efficient operation of HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems. They are essential components that regulate airflow within ductwork, ensuring proper air distribution, energy efficiency, and comfort levels in both residential and commercial buildings. These devices are responsible for opening or closing dampers, which are mechanical devices that control the flow of air through ducts. In recent years, companies like CNHELI have been innovating in the field of damper actuators, providing solutions that help meet the rising demands of modern HVAC systems.

    What is a Damper Actuator?

    A damper actuator is an electric or pneumatic device that controls the position of a damper in an HVAC system. The damper, which can either be circular or rectangular, acts as a valve within the duct system. The actuator controls how far the damper opens or closes, based on signals from a thermostat or building management system (BMS). By adjusting the damper’s position, the actuator regulates airflow to different parts of a building, ensuring that each area receives the appropriate amount of conditioned air.
