Stationary Louver
Drainable Blade
Application and Design
ESD-635 is a weather louver designed to protect air intake and
exhaust openings in building exterior walls. Design incorporates
drain gutters in the head member and horizontal blades to channel
water to the jambs where water is further channeled through
vertical downspouts and out at the sloped sill. The ESD-635 is an
AMCA CERTIFIED LOUVER enabling designers to select and
apply with confidence.

Free Air Velocity
Model ESD-635 resistance to airflow (pressure drop) varies
depending on louver application (air intake or air exhaust).
Free area velocities (shown) are higher than average
velocity through the overall louver size. See louver selection
information.
Test size 48 in. x 48 in. Test duration of 15 min.
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. *The beginning point of water
penetration for Model ESD-635 is 1077 fpm free area velocity�
These perfor mance ratings do not guarantee a louver to be weatherproof or stormproof and should be used in combination with other factors
including good engineering judgement in selecting louvers.
