201904 | User Manual PKI-C | 3/32 Introduction This is the original installation, inspection and operating instructions document for PKI-C fire dampers.
/32 | User Manual PKI-C | 201904 Warnings 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 this User Manual closely. 3.
201904 | User Manual PKI-C | 5/32 Operating Conditions Fire dampers can be defined as fire shutters for ventilation ducts in the place where they pass through walls or ceilings, which are the borders of the fire area. In case of fire, the dampers function as a fire safety element and by closing, they prevent the fire and smoke from expanding through the ventilation duct during the defined time. The fire dampers are intended: • For installation in places which are protected against weather disruptions.
/32 | User Manual PKI-C | 201904 Installation • The PKI-C fire damper is installed into the duct, in the place where the fire-proof wall is, or at the end of the duct in front of an air valve or a similar outlet. • The duct that holds the fire damper must be supported or hung in such a way that the crossing does not carry its weight. The crossing must not support any part of the surrounding construction or wall which could cause damage and consequent damper failure.

/32 | User Manual PKI-C | 201904 Installation Distances According to the standard EN 1366-2, the minimum distance from the wall or ceiling to the duct that holds PKI-C is 75 mm. For multiple crossings through a fire resistive wall the minimum distance between two ducts that hold PKI-C is 200 mm. This applies for distances between the duct that holds PKI-C and a nearby foreign object crossing the fire resistive wall (please see Fig. 3 and Tab. 3 ). ≥ 200 ≥ 75 ≥ 75 ≥ 200 Fig.

The supporting construction opening must be prepared in a way described in the section “Opening Preparation” (as per Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). Opening surfaces must be even and cleaned off. The flexible wall opening must be reinforced as per the standards for plasterboard walls. 2. For installation purposes, make a round opening with a diameter of DN + 60 mm into the wall (as per Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). 3.

201904 | User Manual PKI-C | 23/32 Electrical Connections IMPORTANT: Danger of electric shock! Switch off the power supply before working on any electrical equipment. Only qualified electricians are allowed to work on the electrical system. Power consumption must be observed. 1. Drill hole in the duct as close to the microswitch as possible and near the wall 2. Insert rubber gland into drilled hole 3. Connect cables according to electrical scheme (Fig. 24 or Fig. 25) Tab.
/32 | User Manual PKI-C | 201904 Operation Manual The fire damper is ready for installation when its blades are in open position. Follow next steps (see Fig. 26): 1. Check the thermal fuse link. Thermal fuse link is inserted only in one blade and both parts of the link hold together. 2. Press both detent springs. 3. Open the blades into a parallel position 4. Press the blades together until the fuse link holds both blades.
201904 | User Manual PKI-C | 25/32 3. C 1 C Open the blades into a parallel position NOTE: 1 = Thermal fuse link 4. D D Put on the thermal fuse link Fig.
/32 | User Manual PKI-C | 201904 Fire Damper Functionality Check 1. While performing the check, focus on the thermal fuse link’s integrity and a correct position of the damper blades after their detention in the OPEN position – they should be roughly parallel to the longitudinal axis of the duct. 2. Perform the damper activity check by taking off the thermal fuse link and releasing the blades to spontaneously close them – the damper blades are closed by a spring return release. 3.
