Greenheck ESD-635D with VCD-40 Installation Manual

Miami-Dade Qualiﬁ ed

Drainable Blade Louver

Application and Design

ESD-635D is an extruded aluminum stationary louver designed to protect air intake and exhaust openings in building exteriors specifically for applications requiring extremely high structural design loadings. The ESD-635d is an AMCA CERTIFIED LOUVER enabling designers to select and apply with confidence. Design characteristics meet the performance requirements established by the Florida Building Code and Miami-Dade County. Tested in accordance with and passes TAS 201 (Large Missile Impact), TAS 202 (Uniform Static Air Pressure) and TAS 203 (Cyclic Wind Loading). ESD-635D may be installed in locations where the space behind the louver is designed to accept water penetration and houses water resistant/water proof equipment, components or supplies. Qualified for installation within concrete/masonry, steel stud, structural steel or wood framed building conditions.

Water Penetration (Standard Air - .075 lb./ft.3)

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-635D is 1077 fpm free area velocity. These perfor mance ratings do not guarantee a louver to

be weather proof or stormproof and should be used in combination with other factors including good engineering judgement in selecting louvers.

*AMCA licensed performance data shown herein pertains only to the louver

and does not include effects of the factory attached VCD-40 damper.
