Technology that Saves Lives

Belimo manufactures actuators for smoke and fire dampers in ventilation and AC systems. Belimo fire and smoke actuators deliver trusted life safety performance in ventilation and AC systems, with a torque range of 18 in-lb to 180 in-lb when operating at 350F.

To ensure life safety, the fire and smoke actuators meet all codes for U.S. commercial buildings. They pass UL 555 & UL 555S at 350ºF and are tested for 30,000 open-closed cycles with approved dampers. Belimo fire and smoke damper actuators exceed UL’s requirement of 20,000 cycles at damper static load.

Free Online Learning of Life Safety Codes and Standards that Govern Fire Dampers

Although life safety codes govern the testing, repair, and replacement of actuated dampers, deferred maintenance is a chronic problem. Many defective life safety dampers remain in the system, inoperable, without knowledge of failures or dampers fastened open. As buildings age and systems degrade, more fires will occur. The number one failure point on old dampers is the actuator.

Take this free online training and learn:

  1. The codes and standards that govern damper actuators
  2. Common types of dampers
  3. Replacement processes, and additional information on retrofit solutions.
    This training takes approximately 30 minutes to complete. You will be able to test your knowledge throughout the training and take a quiz at the end.  
Remote Testing

FSKN Remote Testing Module

A Simple, Cost-Effective Solution for Periodic Life Safety Damper Testing

Belimo’s FSKN remote inspection module allows testing of actuated life safety dampers without the need for costly visual inspections. It meets testing requirements of NFPA 80 and NFPA 105 referenced by the International Building Code (IBC) and integrates seamlessly with Fire Control or Building Automation Systems using BACnet or Modbus communication protocols. Periodic tests can be run from a computer or smartphone, usually within a minute.

Building Code Requirements

Belimo’s FSKN remote inspection module allows testing of actuated life safety dampers without the need for costly visual inspections and meets testing requirements of NFPA 80 and NFPA 105 referenced by the International Building Code (IBC). The module initiates damper cycling and verifies the damper position to ensure proper emergency operation. The FSKN connects to Fire Alarm panels or Building Automation Systems using BACnet or Modbus communication protocols. The FSKN opens its normally closed relay contact upon the command to test. The damper springs close. The position indication switches verify correct open and closed positions. The FSKN then recloses its contact, and a Pass or Fail message is available for the BACnet controller to read. The smoke detector and/or high-temperature limit are always in the circuit and are never bypassed.

Understanding Life Safety Actuators

Actuator Inspection

The International Fire Code requires periodic testing of fire and smoke dampers to ensure they operate in the event of a fire. Learn the basics of codes, life safety damper operation, and replacement issues.

Actuator Replacement

In this recorded webinar, you'll learn more about common defects found during testing, code requirements, and the critical technical aspects of actuator replacements.

Understanding Codes

Learn about the most frequent failure of the old fire and smoke dampers and discover the difference between modern dampers and pre-2002 dampers and how the age of a damper can affect replacement methods.

Technical RetroFIT+

Building and fire codes require that life safety dampers be repaired as soon as possible if they are not functioning. Replacement of the damper itself is not necessary if it is still functioning. This video covers the essentials of the pertinent codes, electric and pneumatic examples of replacements, and basic actuator descriptions.

Fire & Smoke Standards

This recorded webinar covers the codes and standards governing maintenance and replacement of actuators on Fire & Smoke Dampers. A review of the NFPA 80 & NFPA 105 requirements on properly repairing dampers and replacing non-operable actuators to ensure the safety of the building and its occupants.

Common Control Methods

Fire and smoke dampers are an integral part of air distribution systems and are critical links in the life safety systems associated with most buildings. This recorded webinar will teach you the standard control methods for fire and smoke damper actuators and assemblies, dedicated and non-dedicated systems, and application solutions.
