Installation and Maintenance

ECOSMART Constant Pressure Variable Volume Inline Dampers

Installation

The installation must be carried out by suitably qualified

and competent personnel in accordance with the appropriate

authority and in conformance with all statutory and 

governing regulations i.e. lEE, CIBSE, COHSE, HVCA etc.

Mechanical installation

The unit can be mounted in any attitude giving due 

consideration to the accessibility of the access door to

complete the electrical connection, set up the damper during

commissioning and future maintenance.

A full size access panel is fitted to one side to facilitate 

electrical connection and damper setting.

The unit should be coupled directly to ductwork of matching

spigot diameter and installed behind a ceiling or in a service

void and remote from any areas from which it could be 

subjected to water spray.

Electrical installation

The damper is activated by a 230V mains signal, this signal

can be derived from any switching source i.e. light switch,

mains PIR, mains rated thermostat, humidistat etc. 

Offer the mains cable via the cable grommet provided 

connecting Live (L), Neutral (N) and Earth (E) to the 

appropriate terminals. 

Setting the dampers

Trickle ventilation;

minimum trickle rate is pre set by the

free area cut around the motorised damper. To increase the

trickle ventilation rate remove one of motorised damper

cheek plates (A1), to further increase the trickle rate remove

the second cheek plate (A2).

Boost ventilation rate is set by adjusting the setting screw

 

(B), with flow meter connected to duct work and motorised

 

damper activated (by switching on power to unit) adjust

 

the damper position whilst monitoring flow meter until

 

desired boost airflow rate is achieved.   

Setting the dampers

The run-on timer is adjustable between 3 and 25 minutes.

 

This will hold the damper in the boost position for the pre-

set period when a switched live signal is removed from the

 

Ls terminal.

Check and adjust the setting as necessary using a small

 

screwdriver.

Maintenance

Maintenance intervals will vary according to the level of 

airborne contaminant to which the unit is exposed; check

 

three months after commissioning and twelve monthly

 

thereafter.

There are no parts requiring lubrication.

Isolate the mains supply, remove the access cover and clean

 

out any dust deposits. Check the security of all components

 

and wire terminations - do not adjust the damper setting

 

screw.

To clean the dampers and internal chamber it will be 

necessary to remove the unit from the system and access

 

through the inlet/outlet spigots, mark the position of the

 

setting screw (B) and ensure the position is set correctly

 

upon reinstatement.

There are no recommended spares, should the product 

malfunction then it will require total replacement. Order
