Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document provides detailed specifications and features of the HBTR Series Bubble-Tight Dampers, designed for zero leakage in isolation applications. These dampers are suitable for environments such as medical facilities, laboratories, and clean rooms.

Construction Features
  • Blade Seals: Made of silicone rubber, these seals eliminate leakage around the blade and are easily removable for maintenance.
  • Bearings: Standard ball bearings with grease zerks are externally mounted for easy access.
  • Actuators: A variety of commercial and industrial actuators can be factory mounted. Fast-acting, spring-return actuators are recommended for bubble-tight applications.
  • Frame: Heavy-duty flanged frame with optional customizable mounting holes.
  • Axle Seal: Double-gland seals prevent leakage around the damper’s axles.
  • Blade Stops: Externally mounted on the HBTR-451 for easy field adjustment.
  • Blade: Round, butterfly-style blade engineered for rigidity under rated pressures.

Performance Data
The document includes pressure drop data conducted according to AMCA Standard 500-D. It highlights that actual pressure drop in HVAC systems is influenced by multiple factors.

Specifications
  • HBTR-151: Maximum pressure of 10 in. wg, velocity of 3900 ft/min, and zero leakage at 10 in. wg.
  • HBTR-451: Maximum pressure of 30 in. wg, velocity of 6500 ft/min, and zero leakage at 30 in. wg.
  • Both models operate between -40°F to 250°F and are available in sizes ranging from 6 in. to 48 in.

Materials and Finishes
Options include painted steel, 304SS, 316SS, with finishes like Mill Finish SS, Permatector™, Hi Pro Polyester, and Industrial Epoxy.
