Swegon Introduces REACT Damper Family: The Adaptable and Easy Way to Secure the Indoor Climate in Each Room

Swegon, a global leader in energy-efficient indoor climate solutions, today announced the launch of its REACT damper family, establishing the company's complete assortment of components for Demand Controlled Ventilation (DCV) solutions. Swegon’s DCV solutions enable building owners and facility managers to accurately control indoor environmental quality (IEQ) in each room while significantly reducing energy consumption through precise variable volume airflow control.

The REACT family addresses the critical balance between occupant health, comfort, operational efficiency, and building resilience by delivering exactly the right amount of air when and where it's needed - eliminating the wasteful practice of constant maximum airflow regardless of occupancy or conditions.

"With the introduction of the REACT damper family, Swegon now offers the market's most comprehensive single-source DCV solution that's equally suited for renovation projects or new-builds," states Jeff Bayley, President of Swegon North America. "This represents a major milestone in our commitment to creating healthier, more energy-efficient buildings that respond intelligently to changing environmental needs with the lowest lifecycle cost."

The REACT damper family serves as an integral component of Swegon's complete DCV Solution, working with GOLD energy recovery air handlers, CASA energy recovery ventilators, and various complementary technologies including REACT V volume control dampers, REACT P pressure control dampers, REACT M flow measuring stations, REACT ALS VAV diffusers, and REACT Parasol Zenith DCV chilled beams.

Innovation Through Integration The REACT family stands apart in the market through several key differentiators:

  • Complete Integration: Each unit comes with a gasketed sheet metal sleeve and damper with factory-mounted controls with digital readout, simplifying installation and commissioning
  • Unmatched Flexibility: Options include choice of analog controllers with networking capabilities and temperature, CO2, VOC, and occupancy sensor accessories
  • Superior Acoustics: Laboratory-tested sound design data ensures proper application of dampers resulting in minimal noise disruption in environments
  • Precision Performance: Industry-leading ± 5% airflow measurement and control tolerance

The intelligent responsiveness of the system allows for significant energy savings. For example, when sensors detect an unoccupied room, ventilation can be automatically reduced to prevent wasting fan energy. Similarly, when sensors identify excessive heat, the system can increase cool air delivery precisely where needed.

"As building performance standards continue to evolve and energy costs rise, demand controlled ventilation is increasingly becoming not just an efficiency option but a necessity," added Noamaan Shaikh, Vice President Climate Systems . "The REACT damper family represents the advance of Swegon's vision to provide fully integrated, smart ventilation solutions that can adapt to any building's changing needs throughout the day."
