Introduction This manual cannot be reproduced, even partially, without prior written consent by Formula Air Group. Every step of the electro-pneumatic sliding damper range has been deeply analyzed by Formula Air Group in the expected area during the design, construction, and user manual creation. However, it is understood that nothing can replace the experience, training and good sense of those professionals who work with the device.

CAUTION ! The mounting of the sliding damper has to be performed by qualified personnel only. Before starting assembling, check that you have all the parts and the correct tools for mounting. CAUTION ! Make sure to wear the appropriate protective clothing, gloves, eye protection and masks when needed.
Step 6 : Repeat steps 1 to 5 if the sliding damper is equipped with two cylinders. 3.2.2 For sliding dampers with SQUARE cylinders Step 1 : Screw the cylinder support to the base of the cylinder with the washers and bolts. Washer Bolt Step 2 :...
3.3. Mounting the solenoid valve on the Sliding damper body 3.3.1 Mounting the solenoid valve on the sliding damper body Step 1 : Place the solenoid valve over the threaded holes on the sliding damper body. Step 2 : Screw the solenoid valve to the body with Hex-screws and washers. Bolts and washers 3.3.2 Mounting the coil and connector on the solenoid valve...
Step 2 : Repeat for the other side of the cylinder. Then repeat to the other cylinder (if there is a second cylinder on the damper). Step 3 : Connect the air hose supply to the male stud connection on the other side of the electro-pneumatic solenoid valve (the side with the two regulators).
3.5.3 Electrical connection of the reed sensor 3.6. Mounting the cover house on the sliding damper body (optional) Step 1 : Unscrew the bolt from the damper body where the cover house goes. Step 2 : Slide the cover over the sliding damper body. Step 3 : Use the bolt unscrewed in Step 1 to attach it to the sliding damper.

Attach together with pull rings Attach together with pull rings IMPORTANT : Make sure to use adequate support on the pipes on either side of the sliding damper to reduce pressure on the sliding damper body and blade. Recommended mounting in horizontal ducting is to have the blade open downwards, and have the sliding damper body supported with suspension rings at most at 150 mm from either side of the sliding damper edges.
Maintenance, spare parts and troubleshooting The installation, connection, start-up and maintenance of the sliding damper has to be performed by qualified personnel only. 4.1. Precautions for proper use CAUTION ! It is strictly forbidden to work on the electro-pneumatic sliding damper while the installation is running. During maintenance keep the system disconnected and all the electrical equipment turned off.
