Description of the operating principle
The air flow regulator is a mechanical device that operates without an external power source. The control valve flap with bearings with a low coefficient of friction, under the influence of aerodynamic force, is installed in such a position that, regardless of pressure differences, a constant specified air flow is maintained. Under the influence of the aerodynamic force of the air flow, the damper closes. Under the influence of this force, the inflatable compensator expands and acts as a vibration damper. A leaf spring located behind the cam disc counteracts the closing force of the valve. The cam disk is designed in such a way that when the pressure changes, the damper is adjusted to maintain a constant air flow within small deviations. As a result, the volume of air flow remains constant, with small permissible deviations.

Efficient commissioning
The required air flow is easily and quickly set using the adjustment knob with a pointer; no additional equipment is required. The advantage over flow control dampers is that there is no need for repeated measurements or adjustments during commissioning. If the pressure in the system changes, for example when the control valves open or close, the air flow throughout the system changes. This does not apply to the use of mechanically independent flow regulators. The mechanical regulator reacts immediately and adjusts the valve flap so as to maintain the set constant volume flow.
