EN 1366-12:2014 (E) 5 Introduction The purpose of the test is to evaluate the ability of a non-mechanical (no moving parts) fire barrier (see Annex A) to prevent fire and smoke spreading from one fire compartment to another through the air ductwork system which may penetrate fire separating walls and floors. Non-mechanical fire barriers are unable to achieve an “S” classification, which requires a known limited ambient leakage, as they are unable to be closed except under fire conditions. The non-mechanical fire barrier is attached (directly or remotely via a section of ducting), to a fire separating element in a manner representative of practice. Tests are performed starting with the non-mechanical fire barrier in its cold standard state to expose it to furnace conditions. Temperature and integrity measurements are carried out in various parts of the test construction during the test. The leakage of the non-mechanical fire barrier system is measured (continuously during the test) by direct flow measurements while maintaining a constant pressure differential across the closed non-mechanical fire barrier of 300 Pa. Caution: The attention of all persons concerned with managing and carrying out this fire resistance test is drawn to the fact that fire testing may be hazardous and that there is a possibility that toxic and/or harmful smoke and gases may be evolved during the test. Mechanical and operational hazards may also arise during the construction of the test elements or structures, their testing and disposal of test residues. An assessment of all potential hazards and risks to health should be made and safety precautions should be identified and provided. Written safety instructions should be issued. Appropriate training should be given to relevant personnel. Laboratory personnel should ensure that they follow written safety instructions at all times. SIST EN 1366-12:2014

Examples of test configurations are shown in Figures 1 and 2. 4.2 Connecting duct The connecting duct shall be of all welded construction fabricated from (1,5 ± 0,1) mm thick steel of the same size (width x height or diameter) as the non-mechanical fire barrier being tested. The duct shall have a length of two times the diagonal dimension of the non-mechanical fire barrier up to a maximum of 2 m. Where a non-mechanical fire barrier that has a short spigot such that connection to the connecting duct is difficult, this spigot shall be extended by 500 mm using material of the same type and thickness of the spigot in order to provide a secure air-tight connection without unduly stiffening the non-mechanical fire barrier. This extended spigot shall be all welded the same as the connecting duct. The length of the connecting duct shall then be reduced by 500 mm. The connecting duct may be provided with a gas tight observation window. Care should be taken in the event of testing to Figure 4, to select a method of connecting the non-mechanical fire barrier to the ductwork to ensure that accurate leakage is recorded. 4.3 Volume flow measuring station This shall consist of a venturi, orifice plate, or other suitable device and (where necessary) an air flow straightener, installed in straight lengths of pipe, all sized to EN ISO 5167-1, EN ISO 5167-2 and EN ISO 5167-3. It shall be installed between the connecting duct and the exhaust fan to determine the volume flow rate of gases passing through the non-mechanical fire barrier under test. The measuring device shall be capable of measuring to an accuracy of ± 5 %. Regardless of whether vertical or horizontal non-mechanical fire barriers are being tested, the volume flow measuring station shall always be used in a horizontal orientation. 4.4 Condensing unit Where materials used in the construction of a non-mechanical fire barrier may generate quantities of steam during the fire test, a condensing unit having provision for drainage shall be installed between the non-SIST EN 1366-12:2014
EN 1366-12:2014 (E) 8 mechanical fire barrier and the flow measuring device. When using the condensing device, the temperature recorded by the thermocouple positioned downstream of the flow measuring device described in 4.3 shall not exceed 40 °C. 4.5 Gas temperature measuring devices These shall be positioned adjacent to the flow measuring device. A suitable device is a 1,5 mm diameter sheathed thermocouple orientated vertically with its measuring junction located at the centre line of the measuring duct and at a distance equal to twice the diameter of the measuring duct downstream from the flow measuring device. A similar thermocouple may be located at the exit from the connecting duct plenum for information purposes only (see Figure 1). 4.6 Exhaust fan system This shall be capable of controlling the flow rates and maintaining the specified pressure differential between the connecting duct and the furnace when the non-mechanical fire barrier is closed under fire conditions. The 300 Pa (or higher if applicable) pressure differential shall be regulated by a suitable control system. The pressure shall be controlled to within ± 5 % of the specified value. 5 Test conditions The heating conditions and the furnace atmosphere shall conform to those given in EN 1363-1, or if applicable, EN 1363-2. The furnace pressure shall be controlled to EN 1363-1, except in the case of testing non-mechanical fire barriers installed in a vertical separating element when the pressure shall be controlled to (15 ± 3) Pa at mid height of the non-mechanical fire barrier. If two or more such non-mechanical fire barriers are being tested simultaneously, this pressure shall be established at mid height of the lower non-mechanical fire barrier. For non-mechanical fire barriers installed in a horizontal separating element the pressure shall be controlled to (20 ± 3) Pa at 100 mm below the underside of the separating element to which it is fixed. Details of pressure conditions within the connecting duct are given in 9.2. 6 Test specimen 6.1 Size For the fire test, see 10.2, the maximum size of non-mechanical fire barrier shall be tested. If this is made from sections, the maximum number of sections with all their framework (transoms and mullions) shall be tested. 6.2 Number of tests 6.2.1 General The number of tests depends on various factors. • Supporting construction; • method of installation in the supporting construction; • method of installation on to the supporting construction; SIST EN 1366-12:2014
EN 1366-12:2014 (E) 9 • method of installation away from the supporting construction. It may be seen that there are considerable combinations of supporting constructions, installation methods etc. and this leads to a large number of tests. Reference should be made to the extended field of application standard before starting a test program as careful consideration of this may reduce the number of tests that need to be completed. It is advisable that this is done in conjunction with a notified body or test authority. 6.2.2 Supporting construction Typical supporting constructions would be masonry walls, blockwork walls, dry walls, concrete floors etc. Other supporting constructions may be available and these should be used if it is proposed that the non-mechanical fire barrier be tested in conjunction with them. 6.2.3 Method of installation in the supporting construction Each method proposed for installation in each supporting construction shall be tested. The non-mechanical fire barrier shall be tested both ways round. NOTE There were many discussions on symmetry in the revision and development of this standard. It proved impossible to define symmetry in an objective way to allow all test or authorizing bodies to apply rules in a similar way, particularly in the case of installation in the supporting construction. Also to be considered was where the non-mechanical fire barrier was installed in the depth of the wall and so on. The concept of symmetry has been removed from the standard. 6.2.4 Method of installation on to the supporting construction Each method proposed for installation on to each supporting construction shall be tested. One test shall be undertaken with the non-mechanical fire barrier inside the furnace and one test undertaken with the non-mechanical fire barrier outside the furnace. The face of the non-mechanical fire barrier to be presented to the supporting construction shall be clearly identified so that in cannot be installed the wrong way round on site. If it is to be allowed to be installed either way round it shall be tested both ways round inside the furnace and both ways round outside the furnace. In the case of an uninsulated non-mechanical fire barrier fixed in this manner, only a barrier on the inside of the furnace needs to be tested, as this is considered to be to the most onerous condition. 6.2.5 Method of installation away from the supporting construction Each method proposed for installation away from each supporting construction shall be tested. One test shall be undertaken with the non-mechanical fire barrier inside the furnace and one test undertaken with the non-mechanical fire barrier outside the furnace. The face of the non-mechanical fire barrier on the side of the supporting construction shall be clearly identified so that in cannot be installed the wrong way round on site. If it is to be allowed to be installed either way round it shall be tested both ways round inside the furnace and both ways round outside the furnace. In addition to the largest size, when testing on the outside of the furnace only, a non-mechanical fire barrier of the smallest size shall be tested. This is to prove closure when restricted exposure is given to the radiant heat of the furnace. The method of support of the ductwork through the supporting construction shall be clearly defined as this will form part of the installation method SIST EN 1366-12:2014
EN 1366-12:2014 (E) 10 6.3 Design 6.3.1 General The test shall be made on a test specimen representative of the assembly on which information is required. The general test layouts and equipment references are shown in Figures 1 and 2 for walls and floors respectively. 6.3.2 Orientation to be tested Non-mechanical fire barriers which are to be installed in both horizontal and vertical constructions shall be tested in both orientations. Non-mechanical fire barriers which may be installed vertically but in different design orientations shall be tested in both orientations – e.g. slots vertical and slots horizontal. 6.3.3 Non-mechanical fire barriers installed within a wall or floor opening Non-mechanical fire barriers which are to be installed within an opening in line with a wall or floor shall be tested as generally shown in Figure 3. 6.3.4 Non-mechanical fire barriers mounted on to the face of a wall or floor Non-mechanical fire barriers which are to be installed mounted on to the face of a wall or floor shall be tested as generally shown in Figures 4 and 5. Uninsulated non-mechanical fire barriers which are to be mounted onto the face of a wall or floor shall be tested with the non-mechanical fire barrier positioned within the furnace. Insulated non-mechanical fire barriers which are to be mounted onto the face of a wall or floor shall be tested from both sides so that the insulation properties of the non-mechanical fire barrier body, and where appropriate the duct, can be evaluated. Non-mechanical fire barriers which can be mounted above or below the floor shall be tested with fire from below. 6.3.5 Non-mechanical fire barriers mounted remote from a wall or floor 6.3.5.1 General For test purposes, non-mechanical fire barriers which are to be mounted remote from the wall or floor shall be attached to a length of ductwork. This duct shall be attached to the supporting construction with the non-mechanical fire barrier installed at the other end of the duct. This ductwork shall be considered as part of the test specimen and shall be installed by the sponsor. Non-mechanical fire barriers which can be mounted above or below the floor shall be tested with fire from below. 6.3.5.2 Non-mechanical fire barriers mounted inside the furnace The length of ductwork inside the furnace described in 6.3.5.1 shall be (1 000 ± 50) mm. The distance between the outer surface of the duct and the furnace wall, roof or floor shall be not less than 500 mm. An example of a non-mechanical fire barrier mounted remote from a wall inside the furnace is given in Figure 6. 6.3.5.3 Non-mechanical fire barriers mounted outside the furnace The length of ductwork outside the furnace described in 6.3.5.1 shall be (1 000 ± 50) mm. An example of a non-mechanical fire barrier mounted remote from a wall outside the furnace is given in Figure 7. SIST EN 1366-12:2014

The non-mechanical fire barrier shall be installed and sealed as in practice in a supporting construction in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Where the manufacturer of the non-mechanical fire barrier requires it to be tested in a length of insulated ductwork he shall specify the details of materials and construction and the length over which the duct is to be insulated as shown in Figure 8. 7.2 Supporting construction The supporting construction selected shall have fire resistance equal to (o
