Pressure-Relief Access Doors

Our pressure-relief access door (for positive pressure systems) provides both convenient access and protection against duct collapse, which can occur downstream when a fire damper closes. During nominal operation, the cover is held in place against a sealing gasket by special latches. To gain access, simply open the latches and remove the door by its handle. If a closed damper causes substantial negative pressure immediately downstream at the access door location, the cover of the access door automatically opens inward to relieve pressure and prevent collapse. A retaining chain prevents the cover from being pulled into the ductwork.
