Pre-Installation Guidelines
The basic intent of a proper installation is to secure the
fire or fire smoke damper in, not to, the opening in such a
manner as to prevent distortion and disruption of damper
operation. This is accomplished by allowing the fire or fire
smoke damper in rated separation openings to expand
and for the connecting duct to separate in the event of the
collapse of the hanging system. The following items will
aid in completing the damper installation in a timely and
effective manner.
1) Check the schedules for proper damper locations
within the building. Visually inspect the damper for
damage and verify that the Reusable Resettable Link
(RRL) is in place or has not activated. Never install
a fire damper without the proper UL approved RRL
in place. (RRL is standard control option. These
electric links have a button for resetting.) If damper
is furnished with fusible link, visually inspect the link
to verify its not missing or broken. Replace link as
necessary.
2) Lift or handle damper using sleeve or frame. Do not
lift damper using blades or actuators.
3) Damper has label on outside of sleeve indicating a
‘No Screw’ area. Do not install screws into this area
as screws may interfere with unexposed blade linkage
and prevent damper blades from opening and/or
closing.
4) Damper has label indicating position of damper
and sleeve assembly in the wall. Install accordingly
to comply with manufacturer’s appropriate UL
Classification file number.
5) Damper must be installed into duct or opening square
and free of twist or other misalignment. Damper
must not be squeezed or stretched into duct or
opening. Out of square, racked, twisted or misaligned
installations can cause excessive leakage and/or
torque requirements to exceed damper/actuator
design.
6) Damper and actuator must be kept clean and
protected from dirt, dust and other foreign materials
prior to and after installation. Examples of such foreign
materials include but are not limited to:
a) Mortar dust
b) Drywall dust
c) Firesafing materials
d) Wall texture
e) Paint overspray
7) Damper should be sufficiently covered as to prevent
overspray if wall texturing or spray painting will be
performed within 5 feet of the damper. Excessive dirt
or foreign material deposits on damper can cause
excessive leakage and/or torque requirements to
exceed damper/actuator design.
8) Caulking is not necessary, nor is it allowed, between
the damper sleeve and the wall or floor opening
(annular space). However, caulking may be applied to
the retaining angles.
9) ACCESS: Suitable access (such that RRL’s and
actuators can be maintained, etc.) must be provided
for damper inspection and servicing. Where it is not
possible to achieve sufficient size access, it will be
necessary to install a removable section of duct. (Refer
to NFPA 90A).
10) The Code Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) must
evaluate and provide approval of final installation
where variations to these instructions are necessary.

2. CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS
There is no minimum clearance requirement between
the wall/floor opening and the sleeve exterior (with
thermal blanket attached). However, to facilitate
installation, clearances between the wall/floor opening
and the damper sleeve are recommended. although
there is no maximum allowable clearance, the minimum
overlap requirements between the wall/floor and the
flange/retaining angle must be met. On grill mount
installations the flange must overlap the wall/floor by
½ in. (13mm). On continuous duct installations, the
retaining angles must overlap the wall/floor by 1 in.
(25mm). Because no clearances are required between
the wall/floor opening and the sleeve, dampers may not
be installed in the plane of the wall using this installation
method.

Damper Troubleshooting
The following is a possible cause and correction list for common concerns with the dampers.
Symptom Possible Cause Corrective Action
Damper does not
fully open and/or
close
Frame is 'racked' causing blades
to bind on jamb seals
Adjust frame such that it is square and plumb
Actuator linkage loose Close damper, disconnect power, adjust and
tighten linkage
Defective motor Replace
Screws in damper linkage Damper installed too far into wall. Move out
to line as designated on damper label
Contaminants on damper Clean with a non-oil based solvent (see
Damper Maintenance)
RRL or TOR sensor
tripped
Heat Push reset button located on backside of
RRL or TOR
Damper does not
operate
No power supplied to the actuator Add power supply
Damper Maintenance
Dampers do not typically require maintenance as long as they are kept dry and clean. If cleaning is necessary, use mild
detergents or solvents. If lubrication is desired for components such as axle bearings, jackshaft bearings and jamb seals, do
not use oil-based lubricants or any other lubricants that attract contaminants such as dust.
Dampers and their actuator(s) must be maintained, cycled, and tested a minimum in accordance with:
• The latest editions of NFPA 80, 90A, 92A, 92B, 101, 105, UL864, AMCA 503-03 and local codes.
• Actuator manufacturer recommendations.
