Mechanical Release Fire Smoke Dampers - …

1 Model 2550 Mechanical ReleaseFire Smoke DampersAdvanced AirISSUE A, MAY 2008 Dampers for fire and Smoke ApplicationsMechanical Release fire Smoke Dampers - Type 25502 Advanced AirMechanical ReleaseFire Smoke DampersType 2550 The model 2550 is designed to close and stay closed ina fire situation creating a 4 hour fire rated barrier to stopthe spread of fire , Smoke and toxic fumes. The 2550incorporates the new unique interlocking opposed bladedesign that eliminates the need for blade seals whichburn out during fire conditions. The blade profile is ofaerodynamic double skin construction, and gives a metalto metal seal, which achieves low leakage performanceas stipulated in BS EN1366-2 ES classification for 240minutes in both horizontal and vertical 2550 includes a unique and versatile jackshaftarrangement with a Mechanical fusible link rated at 74 C.

2 In alarm condition the power to the actuator is removedclosing the blades within 16 seconds. When the temperature is reached the fusible link breaks the connectionbetween the actuator and the blades. The blades are then held in the closed position by the knee-lock mechanismand can not be reopened until the fusible link has been replaced. The jackshaft arrangement allows multiple section units to be connected and driven by one actuator depending ontorque requirements. The 2550 damper is available with spigotted connections. Various installation option s areavailable, examples are detailed in our Methods of Installation Manual. This product is flexible and versatile and canbe modified to meet most special requirements on size and & Benefits Independently tested to the BS EN1366 -2 testfor integrity and leakage requirements achievingan ES240 classification.

3 Unique double skin blade design that achieveslow leakage tested to British and Americanstandards without the need for synthetic bladeseals. Closure maintained by the unique knee-lock mechanism which prevents blades from re-opening the damper. Wide range of actuators are available fromBelimo, Honeywell and Johnson's to meet mostrequirements. Junction box that allows easy site wiringconnection. All components fitted to the damper soinstallation simple and straight forward,therefore no additional modification to SpecificationBlades: Double skin galvanised mild steel asstandard.
