® NORDfire | FDMB General information Description Fire dampers are shutters in ducts of air-conditioning devices that prevent spreading the fire and combustion products from one fire segment to the other one by means of closing the duct in the points of fire separating constructions.
® NORDfire | FDMB 1.2 Working conditions Right damper function is secured under the following conditions: a) Maximum air circulation speed: 12 m/s; maximum pressure difference: 1200 Pa b) The air circulation in the whole damper section must be secured as steady on whole surface Operation of the dampers does not depend on the direction of air circulation.

® NORDfire | FDMB Placement and Assembly Fire dampers are suitable for installation in arbitrary position in vertical and horizontal passages of fire separating constructions. Damper assembly procedures must be done so as all load transfer from the fire separating constructions to the damper body is absolutely excluded.
Page 17
® NORDfire | FDMB The control mechanism has to be protected (covered) against damage and pollution during installation process. All fire dampers has to be closed during installation process. The damper body should not be deformed in the course of bricking in. Once the damper is built in, its blade should not grind on the damper body during opening or closing.
