Standards and guidelines

Building inspectorate licence Z-78.6-67 from the DIBt, Berlin, Germany
Guideline regarding fire protection requirements on ventilation systems (Lüftungsanlagen-Richtlinie, LüAR)

Maintenance

The functional reliability of the duct smoke detector must be tested at least every 12 months; this has to be arranged by the owner of the ventilation system; functional tests must be carried out in compliance with the basic maintenance principles stated in EN 13306 and DIN 31051.
Duct smoke detectors must be included in the regular cleaning schedule of the ventilation system
For details on maintenance and inspection refer to the installation and operating manual

Technical information

Functional description

A functional test should be carried out before commissioning, then once per year and after any modification, e.g. repair.

Without smoke

Press Reset/Test push button on the duct smoke detector or in the engineering room (option). The voltage supply to the smoke detector which is attached to the fire damper or smoke protection damper is interrupted, and the damper closes as a consequence.

Once the push button has been released, the damper OPENS, either due to a spring return actuator or a pneumatic actuator.

Note: Fire dampers whose release mechanism includes electromagnets can be opened manually.

With smoke

Spray test gas into the duct through an opening right before the duct smoke detector

If the threshold value is exceeded, the voltage supply to the duct smoke detector which is attached

to the fire damper or smoke protection damper is interrupted, and the damper closes as a consequence.

To re-open the damper after the sensor head has become free of smoke, press the Test/Reset push button on the duct smoke detector.

Once the push button has been released, the damper OPENS, either due to a spring return actuator or a pneumatic actuator.

Note: Fire dampers whose release mechanism includes electromagnets can be opened manually.
