Extended application of results from fire resistance tests - Part 11: Dampers

2007-08-10  Tolerance of 4 months before enquiry per CEN/TC 127 res 558.

Erweiterter Anwendungsbereich der Ergebnisse aus Feuerwiderstandsprüfungen - Teil 11: Brandschutzklappen

Diese Norm legt eine Anleitung und Regeln zur Erstellung einer Sachverständigenmeinung in Bezug auf die Änderung von speziellen Aspekten einer Baukonstruktion für Experten fest, die fachkundig auf dem Gebiet des Brandverhaltens der betroffenen Materialien und Konstruktionen sind.
Diese Norm benennt die Parameter, die den Feuerwiderstand von Brandschutzklappen betreffen. Sie benennt auch die Faktoren, die berücksichtigt werden müssen bei der Entscheidung ob, oder bis zu welchem Ausmaß, der Parameter erweitert werden kann bei der Betrachtung der Feuerwiderstandsfähigkeit einer ungeprüften oder unprüfbaren Abweichung in der Konstruktion. Sie behandelt nicht den Einfluss der Brandschutz¬klappenanordnung auf die Leistung der Wand oder Decke, in die sie eingebaut ist.
Die Norm behandelt die Grundsätze, nach denen eine Schlussfolgerung über den Einfluss von speziellen Parametern/Konstruktionsdetails, welche die entsprechenden Kriterien (E, I, S) betreffen, gezogen werden kann.
Die Norm gilt nicht für Brandschutzklappen, die zum Rauchschutz verwendet werden.
Es sollte beachtet werden, dass feuerfeste Brandschutzklappen spezielle Produkte sind, die unter unterschiedlichen Bedingungen anderen Bauteilen ausgesetzt werden; insbesondere sind sie enorm unterschiedlichen Druckbedingungen unterworfen. Auch die Raumabschlusswirkung wird durch Leckagemessungen beurteilt. Folglich könnte diese europäische Norm einen anderen Ansatz erfordern als andere Normen für den erweiterten Anwendungsbereich, mit Schwerpunkt auf das Prüfen.
Diese Norm gilt nur für nach EN 1366-1 durchgeführte Prüfungen. Es gilt nicht für Prüfungen, die nach anderen Normen durchgeführt wurden, mit Ausnahme von ISO 10294-1, die technisch identisch ist mit EN 1366-2 (Prüfofen kontrolliert nach ISO 834-1, gleiche Befeuerung und Temperaturmessung).

Application étendue des résultats des essais de résistance au feu - Partie 11 : Clapets coupe-feu

La présente norme fournit aux experts compétents pour la compréhension du comportement au feu des matériaux et des structures des lignes directrices et des règles leur permettant de porter un jugement en cas de modification d’aspects particuliers de la conception d’une construction.
Elle identifie les paramètres affectant la résistance au feu des clapets. Elle identifie également, dans le cas d’une étude de la performance de résistance au feu d’une variante non encore testée ou non vérifiable d’une construction, les facteurs devant être pris en considération pour décider si un paramètre peut être étendu et, dans ce cas, de combien. Elle ne traite pas de l’effet des clapets résistants au feu sur la performance du mur, de la cloison ou du plancher dans lequel ils sont installés.
La présente norme définit les principes permettant de tirer des conclusions sur l’influence de paramètres ou de détails de construction spécifiques sur les critères à prendre en compte (E, I, S).
La présente norme ne s’applique pas aux volets de désenfumage.
Il convient de noter que les clapets résistants au feu sont des produits spéciaux, exposés dans des conditions différentes de celles d’autres éléments de construction. Ils sont en particulier soumis à des régimes de pression très différents. Leur étanchéité au feu est par ailleurs évaluée par un mesurage des fuites. Il est donc possible que l’approche adoptée dans la présente Norme se distingue de celle adoptée dans d’autres normes de domaines d’application étendue et insiste davantage sur les essais.
Le présent document ne s’applique qu’aux essais prévus dans l’EN 1366-1. Il n’est pas applicable à des essais effectués conformément à des normes autres que l’ISO 10294-1, laquelle est techniquement identique à l’EN 1366-2 (four régulé conformément à l’ISO 834-1, même courbe d’échauffement et même méthode de mesurage de la température).

1 Scope
This standard provides guidance and rules to experts competent in the understanding of the fire
response of the relevant materials and structures in the making of expert judgement related to
changing specific aspects of the design of a construction.
This standard identifies the parameters that affect the fire resistance of dampers. It also identifies the
factors that need to be considered when deciding whether, or by how much, the parameter can be
extended when contemplating the fire resistance performance of an untested, or untestable variation
in the construction. It does not cover the effect of the fire damper assembly on the performance of the
wall or floor into which it is installed.
The standard gives the principles behind how a conclusion on the influence of specific
parameters/constructional details relating to the relevant criteria (E,I,S) can be achieved.
The standard does not cover dampers used for smoke control.
It should be noted that fire-resisting dampers are special products that are exposed to different
conditions to other elements of construction; in particular they are subjected to significantly different
pressure regimes. Also integrity is evaluated by leakage measurements. Consequently, this European
standard may adopt a different approach to other extended field of application standards, with more
emphasis on testing.
This document only applies to tests undertaken to EN 1366-1. It cannot be applied to tests carried out
to other standards other than ISO 10294-1 which is technically identical to EN 1366-2 (Furnace
controlled to ISO 834-1, same heating and temperature measurement)
It will be necessary to refer to other extended field of application documents to reach a decision on
some aspects covered in this document.
By sensible application of this standard, it should be possible to identify what specifications should be
tested to maximise the field of application. Some information on test programmes is given for
guidance purposes.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this European Standard, the following terms and definitions apply together with
the definitions given in EN 1363-1 and EN 1366-2:
3.1
length of leakage gap
total length of gaps around damper perimeter and blade(s)
3.2
multiple section assemblies
assemblies of individual damper units of sizes up to and including the maximum individual unit size
tested to EN 1366-2
3.3
orientation of damper
for the purposes of this standard, vertical will be taken to indicate a damper mounted within a duct
passing through a wall and horizontal will be taken to indicate a damper mounted in a duct passing
through a floor. It should not be taken to imply the direction of operation, neither the axis for blade
dampers
3.4
supporting construction
A construction used as part of the test assembly to support the test specimen and to fill in the furnace
aperture when the specimen is smaller than the furnace
3.5
standard supporting construction
A construction similar to above, but which has known fire behaviour and for which a Direct Field of
Application has been established
3.6
associated construction
A form of supporting construction that reproduces the critical characteristics of the construction into
which the test specimen is to be installed in practice, and, to which the fire performance of the tested
element is irrevocably linked
4 Installation rules
The following have been identified as being applicable to installation rules:
4.1 Spacing between dampers
Dampers shall not be installed less than 200 mm apart unless tested closer together.

4.2 Influence of fixing damper to supporting construction
a) Centres between fixings shall not be reduced
b) Size of fixing shall not be decreased
c) Alternative fixings may be used if supporting data is available.
NOTE The location of fixings needs also consideration
4.3 Multiple damper assemblies
a) Units may be joined as multi-section on a multiple of up to 4 units using materials of the same
thickness as used in their construction. (2X2 or 1X4). Any through gaps to be filled with steel or
insulation materials.
b) Multi-section units above 4 individual sections, must be installed with supporting rolled steel
sections of a minimum 6 mm thick.
c) Some calculations may be possible to ensure the strength of the supports.
4.4 Operating motors
Operating motors can be changed without requiring additional fire tests providing operating time is the
same or less. In addition, the following points should be considered.
 torque (torque profile)
 angle of rotation
 feedback signalling (position, how to adjust)
 rating of the feedback contacts (in case of replacement business and low current)
 connection to the damper form-fit (shaft / blade)
 safety function during the fire (keeping the damper in the closed position)
 life-time (numbers of cycles
 materials used
 power consumption (dimension of wiring in case of replacement business)
