Anybody have any experience using electric duct dampers as remote controlled blast gates. Rockler is now selling these in home automation, more for HVAC. I wonder if these can be used for blast gates in tough to reach locations in a central dust collection setting. Others have posted that having the damper in the stream (as long as it opens completely) has not been a problem.
I would envision using these with a single 24 Volt transformer and a toggle switch at each machine that can be turned on when the specific machine is in use. I could use a separate commercially available wireless remote to power-on the DC.
Here is a link to the product, made by Suncourt: http://www.bestqualitysupplies.com/S...zonemaster.htm
Thanks.
