Fire & Smoke Protection
2590 300 deg C for 60 Mins High Temperature Smoke Dampers
The 2590 has been designed to operate at 300°C for 1 hour to allow the extraction of smoke and toxic fumes during fire conditions. The 2590 incorporates the new unique interlocking opposed blade design that eliminates the need for blade seals which burn out during fire conditions. The blade profile is of aerodynamic double skin construction, and gives a metal to metal seal, which achieves low leakage performance.
The 2590 includes a unique and versatile jackshaft arrangement and knee-lock mechanism that holds the blades closed in the event of the actuator failure.
The jackshaft arrangement allows multiple section units to be connected and driven by one actuator depending on torque requirements. The 2590 damper is available with spigotted connections. Various installation option’s are available, examples are detailed in our Methods of Installation Manual. This product is flexible and versatile and can be modified to meet most special requirements on size and installation.
• In the fully closed position, with power off, the damper will maintain stability and integrity for 4 hours.
• Independently tested and witnessed by LPCB.
• Unique double skin blades design that achieves low leakage tested to British and American standards without the need for synthetic blade seals.
• Closure maintained by the unique “knee-lock” mechanism which prevents blades from reopening the damper.
• Wide range of actuators are available from Belimo, Honeywell and Johnson's to meet most requirements.
• All components fitted to the damper so installation simple and straight forward, therefore no additional modification to ductwork
Control Options
Spring Open
The damper with power on will go to the closed position and power off will return to the open position
Spring Closed
The damper without power the blades will be in the open position and when power applied the blades will close fully shut
Modulating - Volume Control
When power is applied the blades will fully open. From the open position through a signal 0-10 volts the damper blades can be adjusted between fully open and fully closed allowing volume control. In alarm the power is removed closing the blades within 16 seconds.
Power Open and Closed - No fail safe Position
The damper blades are powered open and powered closed that allows the damper to be controlled during a fire situation. When power fails the damper blades will stop and stay in that position.
Blade Indication - Micro switches
To give indication of the blade position to BMS or similar, integral micro switches are supplied as standard.
