Damper Maintenance
Dampers do not typically require maintenance as long as
they are kept dry and clean. If cleaning is necessary, use
mild detergents or solvents. If lubrication is desired for
components such as axle bearings, jackshaft bearings and
jamb seals, do not use oil-based lubricants or any other
lubricants that attract contaminants such as dust.
Damper actuator(s) must be maintained, cycled, and tested
in accordance with:
• The latest editions of NFPA 90A, 92A, 92B, 105, UL864,
AMCA 503-03 and local codes.
• Actuator manufacturer recommendations.
