Health and Safety 

1.1 

Only competent personnel may carry out the work outlined within this document. 

1.2 

The  wearing  of  appropriate  Personal  Protective  Equipment  (gloves,  footwear, 
safety glasses etc.) is required for safe working and as the site dictates.  
Dampers may be heavy. Large dampers will require suitable lifting and 
supporting equipment, with due consideration given for manual handling.

Dampers  may  close  without  warning.  Do  not  introduce  limbs/fingers  between 
blades whilst the actuator is fitted. 

1.5 

Where  dampers  are  only  accessible  with  the  need  for  additional  elevation,  any 
equipment used should be done so with due consideration to the Work at Height 
regulations 2005 and current site rules.  

1.6 

All work should be carried out in accordance with HSE guidelines and regulations 
and any specific local site rules. 

Important 

2.1 

These  instructions should be read  in  its  entirety  before commencing  work.  The 
installer  must  be  Competent  with  the  manufacturer’s  separating  element 
construction. 

2.2 

Actuators are IP54 rated 

– Check actuator connection box is suitably located. 

2.3 

Do not cut/shorten the Thermal Fuse lead (-TF Actuators).  This will render the 
unit inoperable and invalidate the warranty. 

2.4 

Where an actuator is supplied with a Thermal Fuse (TF), the TF MUST be fitted 
in accordance with instructions.  Failure to meet this requirement will invalidate 
the warranty and the damper will fail to respond as designed/tested. 

2.5 

All Fire / Smoke Damper installations must be carried out to the satisfaction of the 
appropriate Building Control officer and/or specifying authority. 

2.6 

Refer to actuator label for wiring of actuator. 

2.7 

Refer to section 20 for testing. Complete Insp Check List (at end of this document) 

2.8 

For  existing  dry  walls 

–  When  cutting  the  opening  for  damper,  and  (partial) 

removal of stud is unavoidable, ensure the structure is sufficiently supported to 
conform to design specification 

2.9 

Dry wall openings must be lined.  

2.10 

Ensure  that  appro

priate  ‘fire-rated’  plasterboard  is  used  throughout  the 

construction of drywall partitions that need to act as fire-barriers. 

2.11 

Ductwork to be fitted and connected in accordance with DW 144/145. Aluminium 
rivets should be used (to act as breakaway joint). 

2.12 

All  installations  are  subject  to  local  Building  Control  Approval  (BCA).  Tested 
Installations are detailed herein. If the proposed installation has minor variations 
to  that  shown,  acceptance  from  BCA  should  be  sought  before  proceeding. 
Manufacturers are not able to ‘approve’ specific installation methods 

2.13 

Where  more  than  one  duct  penetrates  a  wall  or  floor,  adjacent  fire  damper 
assemblies should be separated by a structural element with a minimum width of 
200mm (to comply with BS EN1366-2 13.6). 

Equipment required 

3.1 

Equipment and tools will vary dependent upon the fire barrier construction that the 
damper is being installed within. Standard equipment  that are normally used for 
the building of the particular barrier should suffice. 

3.2 

Access-equipment as necessary. 

3.3 

Temporary support equipment (to retain damper in position). 

3.4 

Cordless drill with 2,5mm and 10mm drill bits for fitting TF. 

3.5 

Phillips 

№2 screwdriver to suit thermal fuse screws 

3.6 

Screwdriver to suit junction box terminals.
