A valve assembly includes a valve body, a bonnet coupled to the valve body, a valve stem, and an actuator coupled to the bonnet. The valve assembly further includes a damper system arranged within a body of the actuator. The damper system includes an inner sleeve, an outer sleeve, the outer sleeve being axially movable along the inner sleeve responsive to movement of the valve stem, and one or more ports extending through the inner sleeve, wherein movement of the outer sleeve drives a volume of air out of an interior formed between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve through the one or more ports.
