  • Page 3: Introduction

    The activation mechanism for PKIR and PKIS fire dampers is a crucial part of the damper. Its purpose is to drive the fire damper blade between the open and closed positions. In case of emergency, AM-PKI will close the damper blade and remain closed to fulfill classification parameters of the fire damper. Activation mechanism types for PKIR and PKIS dampers are interchangeable with some degree of compatibility.
  • Page 4: Warnings

    Before installing an AM-PKI accessory, check the mechanism compatibility by comparing the 3-digit code provided on the AM-PKI label with codes listed on the fire damper body label. If your fire damper label has your mechanism compatibility code listed, the mechanism can be installed.
