1.  DAMPER IS INSTALLED OUTSIDE OF WALL PLANE 
OFSD-XXX
   Figure 1 shows two approved installations for 
combination fire smoke dampers: 1) “Through the 
grille access” and 2) installation in continuing duct. 
To provide "through the grille" access to the damper 
actuator, the damper is located toward the back of the 
sleeve and the actuator is installed between the damper 
and grille. Actuator and damper can be accessed and 
serviced by removing the grille. To provide access to the 
damper actuator for continuing ductwork, refer to the 
requirements of NFPA 90A.
   ODFD-XXX, OFD-XXX, and OSSFD-XXX: Figure 
1 shows two installations that are also approved for 
curtain fire dampers. For access to inspect the damper 
and fusible link, refer to the requirements of NFPA 90A.
2. CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS
   There is no minimum clearance requirement between 
the wall/floor opening and the sleeve exterior (with 
thermal blanket attached). However, to facilitate 
installation, clearances between the wall/floor opening 
and the damper sleeve are recommended. although 
there is no maximum allowable clearance, the minimum 
overlap requirements between the wall/floor and the 
flange/retaining angle must be met. On grill mount 
installations the flange must overlap the wall/floor by 
1⁄2 in. (13mm). On continuous duct installations, the 
retaining angles must overlap the wall/floor by 1 in. 
(25mm). Because no clearances are required betweeen 
the wall/floor opening and the sleeve, dampers may not 
be installed in the plane of the wall using this installation 
method.
3. DUCT TO SLEEVE CONNECTIONS
   Dampers are supplied with actuators (on applicable 
models) and sleeves from the factory and can be 
installed without the need for additional field installed 
sleeves.
   Sleeve gauges of 20-14 (.9mm - 2mm) are to be used. 
UL Standard 555 requires all ducts to terminate at fire 
damper sleeves. Sleeve thickness must not be less than 
the gauge of the connecting duct.
   Duct to sleeve breakaway connections must be of the 
type described on page 5. Factory furnished round duct 
collars on type R and CR dampers are also considered 
to be breakaway connections and may be used.
