17、NG DAMPERS - UL 555C 3UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements and methods of tests apply to ceiling dampers and ceiling air diffusers intended for installation in hourly rated re resistive

18、oor-ceiling and roof-ceiling assemblies. Fire resistive assemblies are investigated in accordance with the Standard for Fire Tests of Building Construction and Materials, UL 263. 1.2 Ceiling dampers are intended for use in sheet metal air duct outlets which penetrate the ceilings of hourly-rated re

19、resistive assemblies. Ceiling air diffusers are intended for use with Class 0 and Class 1 air duct connectors, or for ductless installation in the ceilings of hourly rated re resistive assemblies. Ceiling dampers and ceiling air diffusers are designed for use as alternatives to previously tested hin

20、ged-door sheet metal type dampers installed at the bottom of sheet metal air ducts over each duct outlet. Ceiling dampers and ceiling air diffusers intended for installation in other types of re resistive assemblies, such as assemblies without penetrations, are investigated in accordance with the St

21、andard for Fire Tests of Building Construction and Materials, UL 263, in place of the Fire Endurance Test, Section 6, described in this standard. 1.3 The investigation of ceiling dampers and ceiling air diffusers for use in oor/ceiling assemblies previously rated with a hinged-door sheet metal dampe

22、r involves a comparison of the re resistance performance of the ceiling damper or ceiling air diffuser with that of a hinged-door sheet metal damper. This is done to conrm that the substitution of the ceiling damper or ceiling air diffuser does not reduce the hourly re endurance rating of an assembl

23、y previously rated with the hinged-door type damper. Ceiling dampers and ceiling air diffusers for use in oor/ceiling assemblies not previously rated with a hinged-door sheet metal damper shall be tested as a component of the proposed oor/ceiling assembly in accordance with the Standard for Fire Tes

24、ts of Building Construction and Materials, UL 263. Ceiling dampers and ceiling air diffusers are not assigned hourly ratings, but rather are assembly components designated for use in specic hourly rated re resistive assemblies incorporating air duct outlets penetrating protective ceilings. 1.4 The r

25、e performance measured by ANSI/UL 263 is based upon air movement being stopped at the start of a re. Ceiling dampers and ceiling air diffusers intended for use in HVAC systems where the airow is operational at the time of a re, such as in a smoke control system, or from other situations in which the

26、 fan system is operational at the time of a re are investigated for dynamic closure. Ceiling dampers and ceiling air diffusers intended for use where the air movement is effectively stopped at the start of a re are not required to be investigated for dynamic closure. 1.5 Tests conducted in accordanc

27、e with the test methods described herein are intended to develop data to enable regulatory authorities to determine the acceptability of ceiling dampers and ceiling air diffusers for use in oor-ceiling and roof-ceiling assemblies having hourly re endurance ratings of the specied or shorter duration.

The weight of the zinc coa

35、ting is to be established in accordance with the Standard Test Method for Weight (Mass) of Coating on Iron and Steel Articles with Zinc or Zinc-Alloy Coatings, ASTM A90. An A60 (alloyed) coating shall also comply with the requirements of 4.4. b) A zinc coating, other than that provided on hot-dipped

36、 mill galvanized sheet steel, uniformly applied to an average thickness of not less than 0.41 mils (10.41 microns) on each surface with a minimum thickness of 0.34 mils (8.64 microns).

The thickness of coating is to be established in accordance with the test method in the Standard Guide for Measurement of Electrodeposited Metallic Coating Thicknesses by the Dropping Test, ASTM B555. d) Two

39、 coats of an organic nish of the epoxy or alkyd-resin type or other outdoor paint on each surface. The acceptability of the paint is to be determined by its composition or by corrosion tests, as specied in the Standard for Organic Coatings for Steel Enclosures for Outdoor Use Electrical Equipment, U

41、 equivalent to brass or bronze. 4.4 A hot-dipped mill galvanized A60 (alloyed) coating or an annealed zinc coating that is bent or similarly formed after annealing and that is not otherwise required to be painted shall be painted in the bent or formed area as specied in 4.1(d) when the bending or fo

42、rming process damages the zinc coating as described in 4.5. 4.5 When aking or cracking of the zinc coating at the outside radius of the bent or formed section is visible at 25 power magnication, the zinc coating is to be considered damaged. Simple sheared or cut edges and punched holes are not to be

43、 dened as formed. Extruded edges and rolled edges and holes shall comply with 4.4. PERFORMANCE 5 General 5.1 Representative samples of each size, style, and arrangement of ceiling dampers or ceiling air diffusers shall be subjected to the tests specied in Table 5.1.
