Stationary Louver
Drainable Blade
Application and Design
ESD-202 is a weather louver designed to protect air intake and
exhaust openings in building exterior walls. Design incorporates
a drainable head member and stationary horizontal blades to
channel water to the jambs which guides the water through vertical
downspouts for escape at the sill. The ESD-202 is an extremely
efficient louver with AMCA LICENSED PERFORMANCE DATA
enabling designers to select and apply with confidence.

Free Area Velocity
The AMCA Water Penetration Test provides a method for comparing
various louver models and designs as to their efficiency in resisting
the penetration of rainfall under specific laboratory test conditions. The
beginning point of water penetration is defined as that velocity where the
water penetration curve projects through .01 oz. of water (penetration)
per sq. ft. of louver free area.
penetration for Model ESD-202 is 1058 fpm free area velocity.
