RECEIVING AND HANDLING
Upon receiving dampers, check for both obvious
and hidden damage. If damage is found, record all
necessary information on the bill of lading and file
a claim with the final carrier. Check to be sure that
all parts of the shipment, including accessories, are
accounted for.
Dampers must be kept dry and clean. Indoor
storage and protection from dirt, dust and the
weather is highly recommended. Do not store at
temperatures in excess of 100°F (37ºC).
Storage of Dampers Prior to Installation
The basic intent of a proper storage of heavy duty/industrial control and bubble tight damper is to prevent physical damage,
material corrosion, and deterioration of organic material.
1) Visually inspect the damper for damage. Store indoors, protected from sunlight, moisture and flooding. Protect dampers
from debris and dirt accumulation. Keep all conduit entry plugs and actuator access covers in place.
2) Dampers may be stacked and stored horizontally if wood or equivalent spacers are placed between flanges to protect
finish. Do NOT store with axles vertical. Place dampers on pallets or supports to allow air circulation. Do NOT store with
damper directly on concrete or ground.
3) The damper drive should be stored in a clean dry area. Do not stack drives on top of one another. Add desiccant
to electrical compartment if storage area temperature drops below 38°F. Damage due to moisture is not covered by
actuator warranty.
4) Consult manufacturer if storage time exceeds two years.
