•  The methods in this manual should be followed to 

ensure a CE-marked installation. This CE installation 
document covers single dampers only. If a multiple 
damper assembly or, if a non-standard install is requi-
red, talk to us as early as possible in the project to get 
important stakeholders engaged and ensure an instal-
lation solution can be found.

•  The instructions are based on the tested method using 

Actionair SmokeShield PTC and FireShield products.

•  Our SmokeShield dampers are designed to be used 

with fire separating elements to maintain fire compart

-

ments. The SmokeShield is an actuated failsafe close 
damper with low smoke leakage, often referred to in 
the industry as a Fire/Smoke damper.

•  Under the Fire Damper Product standard BS EN 15650 

our Fire Damper products are tested to BS EN 1366-2 

and classified under BS EN 13501-3. 

•  For smoke control, the product you use should be 

tested to BS EN 12101-8 and drive open, drive closed 
without failsafe position, see our website for informa-
tion on the Actionair SmokeCommand smoke con-
trol damper documentation and suitable installation 
methods.
