Fire dampers represent passive fire protection and are designed to utilize compartmentalization to prevent the spread
of toxic gases, smoke and fire. The opening and closure of the damper blade can be activated remotely for actuator
versions. In case of fire when the air in the duct exceeds 72 °C or 74 °C, the thermal fuse melts in both actuator and
manual versions. The melting of the thermal fuse activates the closure of the damper blade automatically. The damper
blade is then mechanically locked in the closed position.

Design
Material Composition
The F-R60 damper has a galvanized sheet metal casing, blades from non-asbestos calcium silicate board with
polyurethane foam seals for cold smoke and an intumescent seal that expands in case of fire. Ethylene-propylene
rubber as duct seal. The product contains no hazardous substances, except for the solder in the thermal fuse, which
contains a milligram of lead. All materials are processed in accordance with local regulations.
Activation Types
Manually Operated Fire Dampers
By default, manually operated fire dampers are supplied with manual control, optionally with micro switches. In case of
fire, the fire damper is closed automatically The actuating mechanism is activated when the temperature of the air in
the duct reaches 74 °C and the damper closes within 10 seconds after fuse melts.
• H0
Fire damper with an activation mechanism with a cover, manual crank and with a spring return release mechanism
activated by a fusible thermal link set to 74 °C.
• H2
Fire damper with an H0 activation mechanism + open and closed indication with AC 230 V or AC/DC 24 V contact

Actuator Operated Fire Dampers
By default, actuator operated fire dampers are supplied with an actuator with micro switches, optionally with a
communication and power supply unit. A fire damper can be equipped with a spring return actuator which can be
closed by a command from the building management system, or after the breaching of the thermoelectric fuse.
Actuator operated fire dampers are equipped as standard with a thermoelectric fuse, that activates the closing of the
damper after the reaching or exceeding the ambient temperature of 72 °C. The actuator power circuit is interrupted
and its spring closes the damper blade within 20 seconds.

Installation Rules
• The duct connected to the fire damper must be supported or hung in such a way that the damper does not carry its
weight. The damper must not support any part of the surrounding construction or wall which could cause damage
and consequent damper failure.
• Easy access to mechanism and internal parts during inspection must be considered during damper placement.
• According to the EN 1366-2 standard, the distance between the smoke control damper bodies must be at least 200
mm.
• The distance between the adjacent wall/ceiling and the damper must be at least 75 mm.
• When the damper is installed into a fire partition structure, it must be placed so that the damper blades in its closed
position are located inside this structure.
• The gap in the installation opening between the damper and the wall/ceiling can be increased by up to 50% of the
gap area or decreased to the smallest amount possible that still provides sufficient space for the installation of the
seal.
• The damper must be earthed after being installed into the duct.
• Installation in a thinner wall is permitted under the following conditions:
a) That, the alternative thinner wall should be classified in accordance with EN 13501-2:2007 + A1: 2009 for the fire
resistance required for product applications.
b) That the same length (thickness) of penetration seal (filling) as approved is achieved. This can be done by adding
wall thickness around the damper to at least 200 mm from the opening.
c) That this added thickness will have the same wall construction or additional layer/layers of fire protective board
are fixed to a flexible wall. For a protruding/shaft wall, the additional layers must be fixed to the steel supporting
construction of the wall.
• Lists of all permitted installation methods are provided in Handbook.
Installation, Maintenance & Operation
Some damper parts may have sharp edges – therefore, to protect yourself from harm, please use gloves during damper
installation and manipulation. In order to prevent electric shock, fire or any other damage which could result from
incorrect damper usage and operation, it is important to:
1. Ensure that installation is performed by a trained person.
2. Follow the written and depicted instructions provided within the Handbook closely.
3. Perform damper inspection in accordance with the Handbook.
4. Check the damper’s functionality as per the chapter “Functionality Check” before you install the damper. This
procedure prevents the installation of a damper that has been damaged during transportation or handling.
Information about installation, maintenance and operation is available in the “Handbook_F-R60” document or more
can be found at design.systemair.com.

Installation 1 - Wet
Using Plaster/Mortar/Concrete Filling
1. The supporting construction's opening must be prepared as depicted in the Opening and Wall Preparation section.
Opening surfaces must be even and cleaned off. The flexible wall opening must be reinforced as per the standards
for plasterboard walls.
2. The opening dimension D1 is driven by the nominal dimensions of the damper with added clearance.
3. Insert the closed damper into the middle of the opening so that the damper blade is in the wall. Use the bendable
hanger (2) to secure the damper against the wall using a suitable screw (F1).
4. Avoid any damage or bend to the damper housing from the weight of the filling.
5. Fill in the area between the wall and the damper with plaster, mortar or concrete filling (F2)
Note: Prevent the fouling of the damper’s functional parts, which could limit its correct functioning. The best way is to
cover the functional parts during installation. The seepage of the filling material can be prevented by using plaster
boards. However, these are not required for wet installation.
6. If necessary, uncover and clean the damper after installation.
7. Check the damper’s functionality
Installation Distances
According to the standard EN 1366-2, the minimum distance from the wall or ceiling to the damper body is 75 mm. For
multiple crossings through a fire resistant wall the minimum distance between two damper bodies is 200 mm. This
applies for distances between the damper and other nearby objects crossing the fire resistive wall.

Installation in a Soft Crossing with Fire Resistive Coating
With this installation we recommend using a flexible connection (see accessory FCR) due to thermal expansion of
connected ducts during a fire. Install the compensator so that the flexible part has a minimum distance of 50 mm from
the edge of a damper‘s blade in open position.
1. The supporting construction's opening must be prepared as depicted in the Opening and Wall Preparation section.
Opening surfaces must be even and cleaned off. The flexible wall opening must be reinforced as per the standards
for plasterboard walls.
2. The opening dimension D1 is driven by the nominal dimensions of the damper with added clearance.
3. Prepare mineral wool installation segments with the thickness of the opening height (F3).
4. Apply a suitable fire resistive coating (F4) onto the damper at the place of its future placement; assemble and glue
the filling of the future installation with the same fire resistive coating.
5. Insert the closed damper into the middle of the opening so that the damper blade is in the wall. Use the bendable
hanger (2) to secure the damper against the wall using a suitable screw (F1).
6. Avoid any damage or bend to the damper housing from the pressure of filling insertion.
7. Apply fire resistive coating (F6), at least 2 mm thick and 100 mm wide, onto the exposed filling and wall edges
evenly from both sides of the wall. Do not apply this layer in the place where the mechanism, inspection openings
or manufacturer's label are located.
8. If necessary, uncover and clean the damper after installation.
9. Check the damper’s functionality.
Installation Distances
According to the EN 1366-2 standard, the minimum distance from the wall or ceiling to the damper body is 75 mm. For
multiple crossings through a fire resistive wall the minimum distance between two damper bodies needs to be 200
mm. This applies for distances between the damper and other nearby objects crossing the fire-resistive wall.

Installation 3H - Hilti
Filling Made Only from Hilti Foam
With this installation we recommend using a flexible connection (see accessory FCR) due to thermal expansion of
connected ducts during a fire. Install the compensator so that the flexible part has a minimum distance of 50 mm from
the edge of a damper‘s blade in open position.
Tip:
Excess material can be reused as the filling for this installation. It can be inserted into the cavity before you add new
foam from the gun.
1. The supporting construction's opening must be prepared as depicted in the Opening and Wall Preparation section.
Opening surfaces must be even and cleaned off. The flexible wall opening must be reinforced as per the standards
for plasterboard walls.
2. The opening dimension D1 is driven by the nominal dimensions of the damper with added clearance.
3. Insert the closed damper into the middle of the opening so that the damper blade is in the wall. Use the bendable
hanger (2) to secure the damper against the wall using a suitable screw (F1).
Wear protective gloves when handling the foam.
4. Insert the barrel of the foam gun into the middle of the cavity between the damper and the opening and fill it
completely with foam (F5) pushed out foam can be quickly hand pushed back into the cavity.
5. After the filling (F5) solidifies, though it will always remain partly flexible, you can cut the excess foam that stands
out from the wall.
6. If necessary, uncover and clean the damper after installation.
7. Check the damper’s functionality.
Installation Distances
According to the EN 1366-2 standard, the minimum distance from the wall or ceiling to the damper body is 75 mm. For
multiple crossings through a fire-resistive wall the minimum distance between two damper bodies is 200 mm. This
applies to distances between the damper and other nearby objects crossing the fire-resistive wall.

Operation Manual
Warning: Damper blades are spring loaded in the open position and are closing rapidly. To avoid injury, make sure to
keep the blade movement area clear while manipulating the fire damper.
After installation, it is necessary to adjust the damper into its operating position - Open the fire damper:
Manually Operated Activation Mechanism
Turn the red crank into the "OPEN" position. The damper blade must remain in the open position.
Spring Return Actuator Operated Activation Mechanism
Connect the electric driving mechanism to the relevant electric power supply (see Electrical Connection section). The
electromotor is activated and adjusts the damper into its open position.
Functionality Check
Manually Operated Activation Mechanism
• While performing the check, focus on the thermal fuse link’s integrity and the correct position of the damper blades
after their retention in the OPEN and CLOSED positions.
• Open the damper - turn the red crank (P11) by hand or by using a hexagonal bent wrench No. 10 (P14). Turn the red
crank so that the indicator arrow (P13) is pointing to the OPEN position (O), the red crank needs to remain in the
"OPEN" position, and the microswitch for the open position indication must be pushed (if installed).
• Close the damper – release the mechanism by pressing the release button (P12), the red crank will adjust its indicator
arrow (P13) to point to the CLOSED position (C) and remain locked in this position, then the microswitch for the
closed position indication must be pushed (if installed).
• Open the damper - turn the red crank (P11) using a hexagonal bent wrench No. 10. (P14) Turn the red crank so that
the indicator arrow is pointing to the OPEN position (O), the red crank needs to remain in the "OPEN" position, and the
microswitch for the open position indication must be pushed (if installed).
Spring Return Actuator Operated Activation Mechanism
• While performing the check, focus on the thermal fuse link’s integrity and the correct position of the damper blades
after their retention in the OPEN and CLOSED positions.
• The fire damper must open automatically after the actuator receives power – the arrow (P13) on the actuator axis in
open position must point to 90°.
• Press and hold the control switch (P12) on the Thermo electric fuse until the fire damper is fully closed – the arrow
(P13) on the actuator axis in closed position must point to 0° - the safety position.

Damper Inspection
The activation mechanism keeps the dampers on stand-by throughout their entire life cycle in accordance with this
manual issued by the manufacturer. It is not permitted to alter the dampers in any way nor perform any changes to
their structure without the manufacturer’s consent.
The operator needs to performs regular checks of the dampers as per established regulations and standards at least
once every 12 months. The check needs to be performed by an employee who has been specifically trained for this
purpose. The fire damper's current condition determined during the inspection needs to be entered into the "Operating
Journal" along with the date of the inspection, and the legible name, surname and signature of the employee who
performed the inspection. The Operating Journal includes a copy of the employee’s authorization.
If any discrepancies are discovered, these need to be entered into the Operating Journal along with a proposal for their
removal. The Operating Journal can be found in product's "Documents" section at design.systemair.com. Immediately
after the installation and activation of the damper, it needs to be checked under the identical conditions as apply to the
above mentioned 12-month inspections.
The visual check ensures that visible damage to the inspected damper parts are seen. Externally, the damper housing
and the activation mechanism are checked. Due to the need to perform a visual check of the damper’s internal parts,
open the inspection lid connected to the damper or remove the flexible connection connected to the damper. Visual
checks can be performed with an endoscopic camera through the hole where the thermal fuse is installed.
The damper’s internal casing, thermal fuse, seals, foaming substance, the damper blade's condition and the accuracy of
its closure during its leaning against the backstop in the closed position must all be checked. There must not be any
strange objects or a layer of impurities from the air distribution systems inside the damper.
NEVER INSPECT THE DAMPERS WHEN THERE IS AIR FLOWING IN THE DUCT SYSTEM!
Recommended Inspection Steps According to EN 15 650:
1. Damper identification
2. Date of inspection
3. Inspection of the activation mechanism's electrical connection (where applicable)
4. Inspection of the damper for cleanliness and possible need for cleaning (where needed)
5. Inspection of blade and sealing condition, possible correction and logging (where needed)
48/49 | F-R60
6. Inspection of the proper fire damper closure
7. Inspection of the damper's functionality – opening and closing using the control system, physical examination of
the damper’s behavior, possible correction and logging (where needed)
8. Inspection of the end switches’ functionality in the open and closed position, possible correction and logging
(where needed)
9. Inspection of whether the damper is fulfilling its role as part of the regulation system (where needed)
10. Inspection of whether the damper remains in its standard operating position.
11. The damper is usually part of a system. In such case, the whole system needs to be checked as described in its
operation requirements published by the builder of the system.
