Blast protection dampers
Halton’s blast dampers provide reliable, mission‑critical protection for Navy and Coast Guard vessels. Engineered to safeguard crew and equipment, the dampers automatically close ventilation pathways during an external explosion, preventing blast pressure from entering the vessel. Their fully mechanical operation ensures dependable performance with minimal maintenance, even in the harshest marine environments.
- Up to 1.0 bar blast protection for demanding naval and marine conditions
- Protection against both overpressure and suction phases of a blast
- Independently tested and widely certified to meet rigorous marine and defence requirements
- Fully mechanical, low‑maintenance design optimized for continuous, mission‑ready reliability
- Marine‑grade 1.4404 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in saltwater environments
- Proven track record of deliveries across offshore, industrial, and defense applications
- Key Models: BDH, BLD‑01 & BLD‑02
Air intakes
Ensuring clean, dry intake air even in extreme maritime conditions.
Cabin ventilation
Providing comfort, air quality, and energy‑efficient airflow control for crew accommodation.
- Pressure independent B-15 rated terminal device for cabin ventilation
- Silent operation with excellent sound attenuation, ideal for crew rest areas
- High indoor air quality based on 100% fresh air, stable airflow and good airflow distribution
- Robust standalone control or digital network enabled control options.
- Key Models: HMF, HME, HMM
Galley ventilation
Designed for naval galleys requiring energy efficiency, hygiene, and fire‑safe extraction.

Frequently asked questions
Is it possible to get the dampers in sizes larger than 1200×1600?
Dampers are available in modular constructions with maximum size up to W2500xH2600 mm.
Standard junction boxes are polycarbonate, is there metallic material option?
Stainless steel junction boxes are available in addition of GRP boxes. Metal cable glands suitable for shielded cables available on request.
Our project has shock testing requirements, does Halton have experience with anything like this?
Halton has lot of experience of designing shock proof products. Halton does not perform shock testing, but it can be arranged depending on project specification.
Do your dampers always have silicon seals?
Dampers can be ordered without silicon seals if leakage rating is not critical. If there are requirements for low even lower leakage rate, FDA, FDH and UTA dampers are available with steel seals.
