Abstract (en)

A fire and/or smoke damper for a duct comprises a blade pivotally disposed in a frame for movement between an open position and a closed position in said duct. The blade has a peripheral channel that supports a seal for sealing engagement with the inner surface of the frame. The seal comprises a core of intumescent material and a deformable sleeve surrounding said core with an air gap. The sleeve provides sealing at low temperatures. In the event of a fire the intumescent material expands at high temperatures to maintain the seal but is retained in position by the sleeve.
