7.TRANSPORT AND STORAGE CONDITIONS
Fire dampers are packed in cardboard boxes or placed on pallets. They are wrapped in plastic film or other
protective material in order to protect them against damage. Fire dampers may be transported using any means of
transport, provided that protection against the weather is ensured. Fire dampers placed on transport vehicles
should be secured in such a way that they do not move during transport. Before installing fire dampers, conduct
visual inspection of each unit. Do not move a fire damper by its connection cable or place it in such a way that its
weight is supported on the release and control mechanism. Fire dampers cannot be hit or dropped. When moving
and installing a fire damper, place it in such a way so that it is supported on its side panels or body edges. Fire
dampers should be stored in closed interior spaces which ensure protection against the weather. When fire
dampers are stored on the floor, they should be placed on protective supports in order to protect them against
damage.
8.MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE (REPAIRS)
Products manufactured by MERCOR SA should undergo periodic technical inspections and maintenance at least
every 12 months throughout their service life, i.e. in the warranty period and later. Inspections and maintenance
should be carried out by the manufacturer or by companies authorised to service MERCOR SA’s products.
The obligation to conduct regular inspections of fire equipment is stipulated in § 3 section 3 of the Regulation of
Minister of Internal Affairs and Administration dated 7 June 2010 on the fire protection of buildings, other structures
and areas (Dz. U. [Journal of Laws] 2010 No. 109, item 719).
The recommended activities to be carried out between the inspections are as follows:
•
check the condition of electrical connections, paying particular attention to mechanical damage;
•
check the condition of the fire damper’s body, paying particular attention to mechanical damage;
•
check for causes that could possibly affect the correct operation of the fire damper.
To enable full service inspections as well as servicing, including servicing under the warranty, such as visual
inspections and repairs, the user has to ensure physical access to the product, e.g. by removing thermal
insulation/suspended ceilings and disassembling other systems if they prevent free access to the product, etc.
In the case of fire dampers installed in ducts, it is recommended to make a service duct such as the mcr KRW
type, for instance.
Should fire dampers be installed on a roof, access to the roof should be ensured by providing a ladder or lift.
