Discreet movement compensation to protect against failure damage for lowerable high-end cooker hoods
For ergonomic handling, modern cooker hoods can be driven by a motor into an up position and then down again. When driven downwards, an AC load can result in a total loss through current being fed back into the voltage source. One of the tasks of the ACE FDN rotary dampers is to prevent this. The modern machine elements are also built to provide protection against motor failure. Sliding the hood down too quickly could lead to further costly damage to the hood and the ceiling console and even cause personal injury.
Rotary Dampers - FDT
Opening and closing mechanisms for machine protection hoods
To exclude the possibility of injury when using bread slicing machines on self-service counters, the automatic bread slicing process does not start until the flap of the modern machine is closed. To simplify the operation and to thereby increase acceptance of the self-slicing principle among users, two-way rotary dampers of ACE's product family FDT ensure smooth opening and closing of the door. Even when rotary dampers must act only in one direction, ACE has appropriate variants readily available.
