■
Dampers are delivered on a pallets. As standard, the
dampers are wrapped in plastic foil for protection during
transport and must not be used for long-term storage of
the equipment . Changes in temperature during transport
may cause condensation of water vapour inside the
packaging and thereby condisitions may arise inside the
packaging that are suitable for corrosion of materials used
in the equipment (e.g. white corrosion on zinc-coated
items or mould on calcium silicate). Therefore, it is necess-
ary to remove the transport packaging immediately after
unloading to allow air to circulate around the product.
■
The equipment must be stored in clean, dry, well
ventilated and dust-free environment out of direct sun-
light. ensuring protection against moisture and extremes
of temperatures (minumum tempe5°C) the equip-
ment must be protected against mechanical and accid-
ental damage prior to installation.
■
Another required packaging system should be approved
and agreed by manufacturer. Packaging material is not
returnable in case that another packaging system
(material) is required and used and it is not included into
final price of damper.
■
For unloading and further manipulation with the damper
is necessary to use appropriate tooling (forklifts) due to
damper weight. Dampers are fragile.
■
Dampers are transported by box freight vehicles without
direct weather impact, there must not occur any shocks
and ambient temperature must not exceed +50°C.
Dampers must be protected against impact when
transported and manipulated. During transportation, the
damper blade must be in the "CLOSED" position.
■
Dampers are stored indoor in environment without any
aggressive vapours, gases or dust. Indoor temperature
must be in the range from -30°C to +50°C and maximum
relative humidity 95% (avoid condensation on the damper
body). Dampers must be protected against impact when
transported and manipulated.
■
Assembly, maintenance and damper function check can
be done only by qualified and trained person, i.e.
“AUTHORIZED PERSON” according to the manufacturer
documentation. All works done on the fire dampers must
be done according international and local norms and laws.
■
All effective safety standards and directives must be obse-
rved during damper assembly.
■
To ensure reliable damper function it is necessary to avoid
blocking the closing mechanism and contact surfaces with
collected dust, fibre and sticky materials and solvents.
■
Flange and screw joints must be conductively connected
to protect against dangerous contact. 2 galvanized fan
shape pads that are placed under the head of one screw
and a fastened nut are used for conductive connection.

Assembly
■
A special lever (part of the actuator) may be used to
manually set the dampers to any position. When the lever
is turned in the direction of the arrow, the damper blade
turns to its open position. As the blade movement is
stopped, in every position, the actuator will be locked.
Unlocking is possible even manually as per instructions on
the actuator, or by the activation of the supply voltage.
■
If the actuator is manually locked, the damper blade will
not close in the event of a fire after the activation of the
BAT thermoelectric trigger. To restore correct damper
operation, the actuator must be unlocked (manually or by
applying power supply).
Manual operation - actuator control without electric voltage
