16-Inch Square Fire/Smoke Damper

The Dayton 3HGK3 is a Class II leakage fire and smoke damper built from galvanised steel for square ductwork. It measures 15.75 inches high by 16 inches wide and long with a 16-gauge frame. The unit carries a 120V AC nameplate rating and suits dynamic HVAC systems.

Install in a 16-Inch Rough Opening

The damper fits a square rough opening of 16 inches and uses a single-panel blade design. Installers must verify the maximum air pressure of 4 in wg and maximum air velocity of 2000 fpm match the system design. Incorrect sizing or exceeding these limits are the most common installation issues.

For Commercial Fire and Smoke Control

This damper suits engineers specifying fire and smoke protection in square galvanised duct systems rated for 120V AC actuation. It is not for buyers needing round or rectangular duct connections, higher pressure classes, or different voltage control signals.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the damper is operating correctly after installation?

Check that the blade moves freely and seals tight when the 120V AC actuator is energised; airflow should not exceed 2000 fpm and static pressure must stay within 4 in wg.

What comes in the box and what must I source separately?

The damper frame and galvanised steel blade are supplied; you will need to provide mounting hardware, duct connectors and the 120V AC control wiring.

Which size should I select for a 16-inch square duct?

Choose the 16 in W × 15.75 in H model; it matches a 16-inch square rough opening and is rated for Class II leakage at the stated pressure and velocity limits.
