Smoke and heat control systems - Part 8: Specification for smoke control dampers prEN 12101-8

Scope

This European Standard applies to smoke control dampers operating as part of a smoke and heat control system placed on the market. This standard specifies requirements and gives reference to the test methods defined for smoke control dampers, which are intended to be installed in smoke and heat control systems in buildings.
To avoid duplication, reference is made to a variety of other standards. To this end this standard is to be read in conjunction with prEN 1366-10, EN 1366-2, EN 1363-1 and EN 1363-2 for details of the furnace testing.
Smoke control dampers covered by this standard can be installed into or onto smoke control system ducts or into or onto the surface of a wall, floor or ceiling/roof. This standard has not considered in detail the detrimental and/or corrosive effects that may be caused by process chemicals present in the atmosphere which are drawn through the system intentionally or inadvertently.
