General information
During mounting or installation, there is a risk of injuries. To
avoid any possible injuries, personal protective equipment
(PPE) must be worn.
Fire dampers must be installed such that external forces do not
impair their permanent functioning.
Ventilation ducts must not exert significant forces on walls,
supports or ceilings and thus also on fire dampers as a result
of thermal expansion (in case of fire).
Appropriate compensation measures, such as the arrange-
ment of flexible spigots or a suitable duct routing (duct angles
and distortions), must be taken as required. National regula-
tions must be observed and adhered to.
Prior to installing the fire damper, the possibility to connect
the ventilation ducts must be checked. Extension pieces (on
site or as accessories SCHAKO type VT-RF) might be neces-
sary, e.g. for large wall and ceiling thicknesses. When con-
necting duct components, a fastening type must be selected
that causes no damage to the fire damper or its accessories.
During mounting it may be required to provide reinforce-
ments for the housing or the like.
The requirement of statically load-bearing lintels may have to
be taken into consideration.
Improper transport/handling may result in damage/functional
impairment. In addition to that, the film of the transport
packaging must be removed and the delivery inspected for
completeness.
During storage, fire dampers must be protected from dust,
dirt, moisture and the effects of temperature (e.g. direct sun-
light, heat-emitting light source, etc.). They must not be ex-
posed to direct effects of the weather and must not be stored
below -20 °C or above 50 °C.
The fire damper must be protected from dirt and damage. Af-
ter installation is complete, any dirt must be removed imme-
diately.
Enough space must be provided for installation, mortar lining,
etc.
Carry out a functional check of the fire damper before and af-
ter mounting and ensure ready access.
Electrical installation or work on electrical components may
only be carried out by skilled electricians. The supply voltage
must be switched off when performing this work and secured
against being switched on again.
We would like to point out that only suitable cleaning materi-
als may be used to clean the stainless steel version of fire
dampers!
Minimum distances or projecting ends
The dimensions given must be considered an installation rec-
ommendation for the BSK-RPR-EU and may differ, depending
on the local situation. To guarantee fire protection, the fire
damper must be installed in accordance with the technical
documentation, installation, mounting and operating instruc-
tions.
There are no inspection openings on the BSK-RPR-EU, which is
why inspection openings in the connected ventilation ducts
must be provided in the immediate proximity. Inspection
openings must be freely accessible, which must be ensured in
particular when at least 2 fire dampers are installed next to
each other or below each other in the immediate proximity of
adjacent components.
