DIN Standards Committee Building and Civil Engineering

Overview

This European Standard specifies test methods for smoke control dampers to assess their performance under elevated temperature or fire conditions. Under certain circumstances the smoke control damper to be tested may also require testing to EN 1366-2. This needs to be considered before carrying out these tests. Smoke control damper tests are required to assess whether the furnace testing requirements of prEN 12101-8 are met. They shall be carried out prior to assessment in accordance with prEN 12101-8. Smoke control dampers tested to this European Standard may be classified using EN 13501-4. This European Standard applies in conjunction with EN 12101-8, EN 13501-4, EN 1366-2 and EN 1363-1, the latter giving further details for fire resistance testing. Installation details for smoke extraction ducts need to be considered and these are defined in EN 1366-8 and EN 1366-9. This European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 127 "Fire safety in buildings" with German collaboration. Working Committee NA 005-52-06 AA "Brandverhalten von Baustoff und Bauteilen - Lüftungsleitungen" ("Fire behaviour of building materials and building components - Ventilation installations") of the Building and Civil Engineering Standards Committee (NABau) is responsible at DIN, the German Institute for Standardization e. V.
