scope:

This Part of this European Standard specifies test methods for smoke control dampers. These tests are required to confirm that the dampers meet the furnace testing requirements of prEN 12101-8. It should be noted that the damper to be tested might require testing to EN 1366-2 and that this should be considered before carrying out these tests. To this end this standard must be read in conjunction with prEN 12101-8, EN 1366-2 and EN 1363, the latter giving the details for fire resistance testing. For installation details the requirements for smoke extraction ducts must be considered and these are defined in EN 1366-8 and EN 1366-9.
