Inlet air is proportioned through the heating and bypass channels by V shaped "Air-Flow-Line" dampers, positioned by a damper motor. The patented "Air-Flow-Line" dampers guide a smooth flow of air through the section to reduce air static losses. These dampers maintain a constant pressure drop and, therefore, a constant air volume through the heating coil is maintained regardless of damper position. (from an advertising leaflet of WING who manufactured the IFB [Integral face-and-bypass] heating coil). 2, record 1, English, - face%2Dand%2Dbypass%20damper

Il s'agit d'un appareil qui décide de la quantité d'air qui doit passer par une prise d'air pour climatisateur d'immeuble en fonction de la température de l'air à l'extérieur. Si l'air doit être chauffé, il entre directement vers l'unité de chauffage; s'il est déjà chaud, des conduites de dérive lui font éviter l'unité de chauffage. 1, record 1, French, - registre%20de%20conduites%20directes%20et%20de%20d%C3%A9rivation
