General information regarding safety
Only specialist personnel are allowed to perform the
described work on the fire damper. Only skilled qualified
electricians are allowed to work on the electrical system.
The installation location must be easily accessible and
have sufficient clearance for electrical connection and
maintenance of the fire damper.

Maintenance and replacement parts
The FKRS-EU fire damper is a safety related product
that has been specially developed for fire protection. To
maintain the function, use only original TROX replace-
ment parts.
Environmental protection
To protect the environment keep the following in mind:
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally sound
manner.
Have used fire damper components or the used fire
damper only disposed of by an authorised company.
Dispose of electronic components according to the
local electronic waste regulations.
Correct use
The fire damper is used as a shut-off device to prevent
fire and smoke from spreading through ducting in areas
with potentially explosive atmospheres.
The fire damper may be used in supply air or extract air
systems in areas with potentially explosive atmos-
pheres.
For details on the operation of the fire dampers, refer to
the operating and installation manual FKRS-EU and the
technical data in this supplementary operating manual.
Use in areas with potentially explosive atmospheres
(ATEX)
In accordance with the certificate of conformity
EPS 21 ATEX 2 142 X, the fire damper can be used in
certain Ex zones. The ambient temperatures and types
of release and actuation specified in the technical data
are binding, .
Incorrect use
The following applications are not allowed:
For use
as a smoke control damper,
as an air transfer damper,
outdoors without sufficient protection against the
effects of weather,
in extract air systems in commercial kitchens,
in ventilation systems in which high levels of dust
and pollution, extreme humidity, or chemical con-
tamination may impair the function of the unit and
in installation situations that prevent an inspection of
the internal components of the fire damper.
Modifying the fire damper or using replacement parts
that have not been approved by TROX is not permitted.
Residual risks
TROX fire dampers are subject to strict quality controls
during manufacturing. In addition, a functional test is
performed before shipping.
Damage can, however, occur during transport or instal-
lation and impair the function of the fire damper.
In any case, the proper function of the fire damper must
be checked during commissioning, and ensured through
regular maintenance while in use.

4 Electrical connection
General safety notes
DANGER!
Danger of electric shock! Do not touch any live com-
ponents! Electrical equipment carries a dangerous
electrical voltage.
– Only skilled qualified electricians are allowed to
work on the electrical system.
–Switch off the power supply before working on
any electrical equipment.
For any wiring work, follow the national and local regula-
tions and guidelines for electrical installation.
Equipotential bonding
To prevent ignition sources due to static charges, the
fire damper must be integrated into the equipotential
bonding of the ventilation system.
Construction of equipotential bonding (by others):
Single-wire CU-line 4 mm2 with ring cable lug.
Connection options of equipotential bonding:
Fire damper with ExMax/RedMax spring return
actuator
– Terminal box at PA terminal
FKRS-EU with ExMax or RedMax spring return
actuator
The ExMax or RedMax spring return actuator has auto-
matic voltage detection 24 V – 240 V AC/DC. The
actuator detects the voltage automatically and does not
have to be adjusted.
Connect the spring return actuator according to the
wiring example.
Several actuators can be connected in parallel as long
as the performance specifications are taken into consid-
eration.
Functional testing requires a switch that interrupts the
voltage supply (by others).
The electrical connection is made in the terminal box.
The factory installed wiring must not be changed.
Attention!
If the voltage has been interrupted with either the switch
(1) or the optional release mechanism (2), the heating
(6) is not active.

TROXNETCOM AS-i
The fire dampers with spring return actuator and module
AS-EM/C (accessory) form a functional unit ready for
automatic operation.
The module is to be installed and wired outside of the
potentially explosive atmosphere by others
The module transmits the control signals between
the spring return actuator and the controller and
power unit. This allows for controlling the actuator
and monitoring the actuator run time during func-
tional testing.
The 24 V DC supply voltage for the module and the
actuator is transmitted using the AS-i flat cable.
Status display:
–Operation
– 4 inputs
– 2 outputs

5 Functional test
General
During operation at normal temperatures, the damper
blade is open. A functional test involves closing the
damper blade and opening it again. The exact proce-
dure depends on the type of release mechanism.
WARNING!
Risk of injury from the release mechanism or from a
moving damper blade. Do not touch the release
mechanism or reach into the fire damper while
actuating the release mechanism.

CAUTION!
Danger of injury when reaching into the fire damper
while the damper blade is moving. Do not reach into
the fire damper while actuating the release mecha-
nism.
Requirement
Power is being supplied
1. Push the push button (1) and keep it pushed.
ðThis interrupts the power supply, and the
damper blade closes.
2. Check if the damper blade is CLOSED, check run
time.
3. Release the push button (1).
ðPower is supplied again, and the damper
blade opens.
4. Check if the damper blade is OPEN, check run
time.

Opening/closing the fire damper using the crank
handle
Fig. 7: Functional test (without power supply)
DANGER!
Danger due to malfunction of the fire damper.
If the damper blade has been opened by means of
the crank handle (without power supply), it will no
longer be triggered by a temperature increase, i.e. in
the event of a fire. In other words, the damper blade
will not close.
To re-establish its function, connect the power
supply.
Requirement
The damper blade is CLOSED
1. Remove the terminal box (1).
2. Insert the crank handle (2) into the opening for the
spring-winding mechanism
(The crank handle is clip-fixed to the connecting
cable.)
3. Turn the crank handle (2) in the direction of the
arrow (3) to the travel stop.
4. Remove the crank handle (2).
ðThe damper blade (1.2) will then CLOSE.
5. Mount the terminal box (1).
