GV Radial Vane damper valve solutions for fan inlet applications.
Beyond the valve
Radial Vane damper valves are made as a welded assembly construction and usually made for modulating gas applications. The installation of this equipment is done between pipeline flanges, which flange drilling can be made according to customer specifications or PARAVALVES standard. Face to face determines the distance between flanges and this can also be taylor-made to comply with customer project. Wafer type or ButtWelding ends can also be supplied on request.
The Radial Vane Dampers are designed with multiple blades around a center hub and are predominantly used on fan inlet applications, offering an enhanced level of flow and pressure control. This design creates a positive swirl distribution at the inlet of the fan that facilitates the fan operation and therefore reduces horsepower consumption Making adjustments to the radial vane damper blade positions during fan operation can also throttle the air flow into the fan enabling the fan to run in a more ideal region of its fan curve.
GV Radial Vane dampers can work up to 1000ºC depending on the selected material, and pressures up to 0.5bar. Taylor-made designs can also be requested for specific number of blades, face to face, actuator extensions or special configurations to fit the pipeline.

Computational Fluid Dynamics
Non-conformist spirit that makes our engineering team go beyond.
At paravalves, Engineering team is able to perform Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) as well as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for valve components and assemblies.
Every component is designed and validated by top-notch softwares by the paravalves engineering team.
Zero atmospheric leakage.
Even for gas or high temperature applications.
At paravalves GV radial vane damper shaft packing system is designed to ensure full tightness to the atmosphere even for gas or high temperature applications.
Flow Characteristic Curve
Obtained by paravalves after several CFD studies
The equal percentage characteristic valve inherent curve is ussually selected for control applications because it compoensates effectively the decreasing pressure differentials as flow rate increases.
One design to rule them all.
Lever or gearbox manual operation, Electric actuator and single or double Pneumatic cylinder actuation types are possible with Gasport GV radial vane damper valves. The design allows actuators to be interchangeable each other even without removing the valve from the pipeline. It most cases, drilled according to ISO 5211 standard.
