AIR CONTROL DAMPERS.

OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE MANUALS.

1.0 INTRODUCTION.

1.1 This manual covers series ES35, ES36,& ES50 Air Control Dampers and

should always be followed. Any deviation from this manual should always

be agreed with the manufacturer Actionair.

1.2 The ES series Air Control Dampers are designed to control airflows in

ducts, wall, ceilings and floors. The product offers numerous control

options and features, as required and specified by contractors, local fire

and or hospital authorities and consultants.

1.3 There are four casing variants: Flanged, square/rectangular, Spigot

square/rectangular, Circular and Flat oval.

1.4 All dampers are manufactured in compliance with the company’s quality

control and quality assurance procedures.

2.0 Description and Operation.

2.1 The E35 and 36 series Air Control Dampers have galvanised triple V blade

profile that operate through an opposed blade linkage system within a 1.2

thick galvanised casing.

2.2 The ES0 series Air Control Dampers have Aerofoil Aluminium blades that

operate through an opposed blade linkage system within a 1.2 thick

galvanised casing

2.3 The Linkage will provide the blade pivoting system to open and close the

blades through a rotation of 90 degrees. Refer to the ES catalogue for the

max operating parameters.

2.4 The ES damper can be operated by a manual quadrant or via a ∅½drive

spindle for motorisation by Actionair or others.

3.0 Installation Instructions.

3.1 Please ensure that the fixing framework and the ES damper flanges are

carefully matched when assembled together.

3.2 Ensure before installation that any wooden battens or packaging supplied

for transit strengthening purposes are removed. Failure to carry out this

procedure could result in permanent damage to the unit.

3.3 Before installation, the damper should be inspected to ensure that it has not

been damaged and is in good condition following transportation.

3.4 Please ensure that the damper frame and blades are free of any foreign

matter and that the assembly is not distorted in any manner and without

any dents and surface damage that could restrict blade movement.

3.5 Check that the dampers are operating correctly before carrying out

installation.

3.6 Flanged dampers when installed must be square and flat to avoid

additional torque being generated when opening and closing.

3.7 ES series dampers should not be installed with blades in the vertical

position.

3.8 Check that the dampers are operating correctly when dampers have been

installed.

4.0 Operation.

4.1 The ES series Air control damper is primarily designed for use in the

ductwork systems and can be used behind louver sets to control the

airflow. On the system being balanced during commissioning operations,

manual dampers can be locked in position by tightening the wing nut.

When dampers fitted with an actuator either by Actionair or by others you

should check the actuator operating instructions before attempting to rotate

the drive shaft when no power is available.

4.2 When actuators are fitted by others the extended drive shaft should be

fixed to the ‘F’ drive nearest centre of the damper. The supplier’s actuator

fitting recommendations should always be observed.

4.3 It is assumed that the atmosphere which the damper controls meet national

and international standard’s for filtration and humidification conditions.

5.0 Maintenance

5.1 The ES series control damper have been designed incorporating galvanised

coated mild steel casings and drive components as standard, to give a high

degree of resistance to corrosion within filtered temperature and humidity

controlled conditions.

5.2 It is recommended within normal preventative maintenance procedures for

the blades and inner casing to be cleaned annually but dampers installed in

high areas of high pollution should be cleaned more frequently. Specific

attention should be made to ensure the spindles and bushes are clean,

rotate freely and are well lubricated.

6.0 Spares List.

6.1 Manual dampers require no spare parts.

6.2 Actuators need not be kept as spares unless otherwise required by the

building maintenance contractor.

6.3 Should damage occur on site the following data should be used to identify

the required spare parts that can be rectified on site.

7.0 Defects and Liability

7.1 Defects and Liability Period shall be 12 months from the date the goods

are supplied or the works are practically complete.
