FSD Series Fire/Smoke Damper
Installation, Maintenance and Operating Instructions

Installation:

1. Before installation, the damper should be inspected to ensure that it has not
been damaged and is in good condition following transportation.
2. Ensure that all packing materials are removed, as failure to complete could
result in permanent damage to the product.
3. Ensure that the ductwork and damper spigots are carefully matched, with
the specified sealing material used during installation.
4. Ensure that the ductwork is adequately supported, this is particularly
important where large dampers are concerned.
5. Ensure that the damper is free of any foreign matter, the assembly is not
distorted and is square with no surface damage that could restrict blade
movement.
6. If stored before installation, ensure the product is stacked and stored in
clean, dry conditions to prevent the ingress of dust, as well as avoiding
excessive temperatures or humidity.
7. Care should always be taken when handling dampers on site to avoid
subjecting them to excessive stresses for which they are not designed.
8. Whenever possible operate the damper blades by disconnecting the Motor
Connection, particular attention must be given when re-tightening the Motor
ensuring correct relationship between the Motor and the Spindle, it is
advised to mark a position before loosening the clamp.
9. It is important to ensure that all dampers are installed with airflows and
pressures conforming to the test data as detailed in the manufacturers
technical product manual. Excessive airflows and/or pressures could result
in permanent damage and/or malfunction of the damper.

and/or other Electrical Components conform to that Voltage and Current.
11. Ensure that the Internal Linkages and Crank-Arms are clear of obstructions.
