Rectangular Fire Damper FDS-3G
Description
Overflow fire dampers represent passive fire protection, designed with the help of compartmentalization to prevent
the spread of toxic gases, smoke and fire. Standard fire dampers are designed and certified in accordance with EN
15650 and tested for EIS criteria according to EN 1366–2. Fire damper together with its installation form an inseparable
part of fire resistivity rating. FDS-3G...OF fire dampers are to be used as Air Transfer Grilles - installations without
connected ductwork. The installations are listed and described in their User Manual. By default, all Overflow fire
dampers are supplied with an manual mechanism or actuator mechanism, optionally with smoke detector. FDR-3G...OF
is equipped on both ends with Grilles that together with the duct extensions cover blade overhangs.
Manually Operated Fire Dampers
By default, all manually operated fire dampers are supplied with hand crank, optionally with micro switches. In case of
fire, the fire damper is closes automatically after the melting of the thermal fuse. After the closing of the damper
blade, it is mechanically locked in the closed position and can only be opened manually. 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 the
melting of the fuse.
Actuator Operated Fire Dampers
By default, all actuator operated fire dampers are supplied with an actuator with micro switches. A fire damper
equipped with a spring return actuator can be closed with command from the building management system, or after
the breaching of the thermoelectric fuse. Actuator operated fire dampers are standardly equipped with a
thermoelectric fuse, that activates the closing of the damper after the reaching or exceeding of the ambient
temperature of 72°C. The actuator power circuit is interrupted and its spring closes the damper blade within 20
seconds.
The activation mechanisms are removable and are interchangeable, for example an actuator operated mechanism
instead of a manually operated mechanism.

Design
Fire dampers have casings made from galvanized sheet metal. Blades from non-asbestos insulants have a rubber seal
for cold smoke and an intumescent seal, that expands in a fire situation. Overflow fire damper is equipped on both
ends with galvanized sheet metal Grilles mounted on sheetmetal duct extensions.
Material Composition
The product contains galvanized sheet metal, calcium silicate board, fireproof carbon fiberglass, polyurethane foam and
ethylene-propylene rubber. These are processed in accordance with local regulations. The product contains no
hazardous substances, except for the solder in the thermofuse, which contains a milligram of lead.

Installation Methods

19/49 | FDS-3G…OF
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:
ensure that installation is performed by a trained person.
follow the written and depicted instructions provided within User Manual closely.
perform damper inspection in accordance with User Manual.
check the damper’s functionality as per the chapter “Fire Damper Functionality Check” before you install the fire
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 “UserManual_FDR-3G” document or more
can be found at SystemairDESIGN.
Installation rules
• The damper must not support any part of the surrounding construction or wall which could cause damage and
consequent damper failure.
• The damper driving mechanism can be placed on either side of the wall, however it needs to be placed so as to
ensure easy access during inspection.
• According to the standard EN 1366-2, the distance between the fire damper bodies must be at least 200 mm. This
condition does not apply for tested distances. Therefore installations Wet and Soft are approved for smaller
distances under condition that the resulted resistivity is reduced to EI90S.
• The distance between the wall/ceiling and the fire damper must be at least 75 mm. This condition does not apply
for tested distances. Therefore installations Wet and Soft are approved for smaller distances under condition that
the resulted resistivity is reduced to EI90S.
• The fire damper must be installed into a fire partition structure in such a way that the damper blade in its closed
position is located inside this structure. A bendable hinge is provided on the damper body which represents a plane
where supporting constructure begins.
• For each resistivity the minimum thickness of a its supporting construction cannot be decreased as per EN 1366-2
at least 200 mm from the installation opening.
• The gap in the installation opening between the fire 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 filling.
IN ACCORDANCE WITH EN 15650, EACH FIRE DAMPER MUST BE INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THE INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER!
Notes:
ve - Vertical (wall)
ho - Horizontal (floor/ceiling)

20/49 | FDS-3G…OF
Installation 1 - Wet
Using Plaster/Mortar/Concrete Filling
Important: Use support inside the damper when adding filling. The weight of the filling can damage or bend the
damper casing.
The supporting construction opening must be prepared as depicted. Opening surfaces must be even and cleaned off.
The flexible wall opening must be reinforced as per the standards for plasterboard walls. The opening dimensions are
driven by the nominal dimensions of the damper with added clearance. For rectangular dampers, the opening will be
with the dimensions of W1 and H1.
Insert the closed damper into the middle of the opening so that the damper blade is in the wall. Use the bendable
hanger (2; or hangers) to secure the damper against the wall using a suitable screw (F1; recommended screw diameter
5,5; e.g. DIN7981).
For damper widths greater than 800 mm, it is recommended to use a duct support inside the damper to avoid any
damage, bend to the damper housing from the weight of the filling.
Fill in the area between the wall and the damper with plaster or mortar or concrete filling (2), while paying attention to
prevent the fouling of the damper’s functional parts, which could limit its correct functionality. The best way is to cover
the functional parts during installation. The seepage of the filling material can be prevented by using boards. However,
these are not required for wet installation.
First let the plaster or mortar or concrete filling harden and then perform the next steps!
After the filling hardens, remove the duct support from inside of the damper.
If needed, uncover and clean the damper after installation.
Check the damper’s functionality
Installation - Standard 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 resistive wall the minimum distance between two damper bodies is 200 mm. This
applies for distances between the damper and a nearby foreign object crossing the fire resistive wall.
Installation - Smaller Distances, Maximum resistivity reduced to EI90S
The distance between individual fire dampers can be reduced to 60 mm, measured from surface to surface of the
housing and the distance between the surface of the damper installed in the duct and the adjacent supporting
construction (wall/floor) can be reduced to 40 mm, provided that the fire resistance classification will be reduced as
follows: EI90 (ve i <-> o) S.
Installation in a Wall thinner than tested
Installation in a thinner wall is allowed under the condition that an additional layer/layers of fire protective board are
fixed to the surface of the wall in order to achieve the same length of damper penetration seal as was tested. The
minimum width of added boards around the damper is 200 mm. In addition, the alternative thinner wall should be
classified in accordance with EN 13501-2:2007 + A1: 2009 for fire resistance required for product application. For a
protruding wall, the additional layers must be fixed on the steel supporting construction of the wall.
