Intake/Discharge Specialty Louver
Stationary Blades
Application and Design
ESID-430 is a specialty louver designed to protect air intake and
exhaust openings in building exterior walls. Design incorporates
a drainable head member with exhaust blades at the top and
weather protective intake blades at the bottom. The blade
configuration allows intake and discharge ductwork to be
connected to the back of the louver and prevents the short
cycling of air. Unit is available as either a combination intake/
discharge louver or discharge only louver.

Free Air Velocity
Model ESID-430 resistance to airflow (pressure drop) varies

Free area velocities (shown) are higher than average
velocity through the overall louver size. See louver selection

Water Penetration per Unit Free Area
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 ESID-430 is 1002 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.

ESID-430INSTALLATION DETAILS
Maximum Size and Installation Information
Maximum single section size for model ESID-435 is 60 in. W x 120 in. H. Larger openings require field assembly of multiple louver
panels to make up the overall opening size. Individual louver panels are designed to withstand a 25 PSF wind-load (please consult
Greenheck if the louvers must withstand higher wind-loads). Structural reinforcing members may be required to adequately support
and install multiple louver panels within a large opening. Structural reinforcing members along with any associated installation
hardware is not provided by Greenheck unless indicated otherwise by Greenheck. Additional information on louver installation may
be found in AMCA Publication #501, Louver Application Manual.
