1.2. INSTALLATION OF <strong>DAMPER</strong>S<br />
IN ACCORDANCE WITH SOLAS II-2/9.7.3.1.2 THE <strong>DAMPER</strong> SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN ORDER TO<br />
DELIVER CLEAR VIEW ON THE RED ARROW THAT INDICATES THE <strong>DAMPER</strong> POSITION<br />
When lifting or handling the fire damper, care must be taken to protect the mechanism from damage.<br />
DO NOT LIFT THE <strong>FIRE</strong> <strong>DAMPER</strong> BY THE ACTIVATING MECHANISM.<br />
After installation it is also advisable to protect the mechanism from dirt and mechanical damage, until<br />
the commissioning and/or final acceptance activities start (for instance: a wooden covering box).<br />
The fire damper can be installed in a horizontal, vertical or inclined position. However, it is<br />
recommended to provide the blade spindle to remain in the horizontal plane.<br />
In case of passing through decks or bulkheads, the fire damper shall be flanged on a separate<br />
penetration sleeve. These sleeves are mostly manufactured out of the same material and fire rating<br />
as the deck or bulkhead in which they are located, and provided with corresponding counter flanges.<br />
A suitable gasket if needed must be included between the flange faces to seal the joint.<br />
The fire damper must be installed square and true. Any distortion of the casing may cause jamming<br />
during operation.<br />
If the fire damper has to be insulated after installation (pending on the fire rating) ensure that the<br />
insulation does not impede the operation of the damper.<br />
The damper is approved for use in ducts penetrating bulkhead or deck Class A-0/A-15/A-30/A-60<br />
when damper and ventilation penetration are insulated similarly. The arrangement and necessary<br />
insulation of fire dampers frame and ducting in the vicinity of the partition is subject to approval in<br />
each case.<br />
If the fire damper is installed above a ceiling or under a false floor, an inspection/access hatch shall<br />
be provided for the accessibility for tests, service and/or maintenance.<br />
Different connections and connection methods are available through use of installation frames and flanges<br />
