*Damper Grille Sold Separately*

The LD and LDN series smoke shaft dampers have been designed for smoke evacuation and control within lobbies and are installed into extract shafts in multi-level buildings, to maintain tenable conditions in the common escape routes in the event of a fire.

Motorised dampers are designed to work in fan power extract systems. Air is pulled through the damper and into the extract shaft. Natural dampers work in natural draft (stack effect) ventilation which requires a minimum free area of one metre square to comply with current standards and Approved Document B specification.

These smoke shaft dampers are for drywall or masonry/ concrete construction.
The Lobby Damper series comprises of 2 models

LD—Mechanical dampers
LDN—Natural dampers

Easy Fix'®' fascia grille

The lobby-sleeved damper consists of two parts. The damper within a sleeve and a grille room side for ductless applications. The main sleeved damper with a peripheral flange allows it to be fitted flush into the builder’s prepared aperture. The fitted internal actuator is used to drive the damper blades from the normal closed position to the fully open position on receipt of a signal from a fire/smoke control and detection system. Closed blade surfaces are painted matt black to allow the damper to be inconspicuous behind the EASY FIX® grille.

LD motorised lobby dampers have vertical damper blades whilst the LDN has horizontal damper blades. The horizontal blade grille has been designed to maximise the airflow with minimal pressure loss. The grille is affixed to the damper with concealed colour-matched fixings.

The dampers are typically closed in normal operation. Where a fire or smoke is detected, the damper on the level of the fire would receive an instruction from the control system to open to vent the smoke and gases into the smoke shaft.
The Dampers on all other levels remain closed, thus preventing the spread of fire from the riser on those levels.

The Smoke Control series LD and LDN dampers are certified to ISO 9001 and pass the tested requirements stated in EN 1366-10. CE marked LD & LDN dampers certificated to EN12101-8. The test requirements allow for installation within a dry line wall and masonry walls. Designed for smoke evacuation and control within lobbies and are installed within extract shaft walls in multi-level buildings, to maintain tenable conditions in escape routes. The damper and grille are a fully tested product tested to EN 1366-10, certified to EN 12101-8, and classified to EN 13501-4 achieving: E (120 Vew i’o) S 1000 C10,000 AA Multi. Dampers are typically closed in normal operation and move to the open position via a drive open/drive closed (non-spring activated) actuator to vent smoke and gases into the smoke shaft.
The smoke control damper has a tested installation method that matches the requirement of the supporting construction into which it is built.
