FSD60-3
COMBINATION FIrE AND SMOKE DAMPEr
3 HOUr UL555 rATED, UL555S LEAKAGE CLASS 1

APPLICATION
The FSD60-3 is a combination fire and smoke damper designed with
airfoil blades for the lowest pressure drop that provides point-of-ori-
gin fire containment and operational flexibility in static and dynamic
smoke management systems. The FSD60-3 may be installed verti-
cally in walls or horizontally in concrete floors and has been qualified
to 2,000 fpm and 4" w.g. on all sizes and 4,000 fpm and 8" w.g. on
select sizes (consult Ruskin for size information).

AMCA LICENSED AIr PErFOrMANCE DATA

Ruskin Company certifies that the

FSD60-3 shown hereon is licensed
to bear the AMCA Seal. The ratings
shown are based on tests and pro-
cedures performed in accordance
with AMCA Publication 511 and
comply with the requirements of the
AMCA Certified Ratings Program.
The AMCA Certified Ratings Seal
applies to air performance for the
FSD60-3.

To determine the AMCA Licensed air performance:

Locate the applicable feet per minute face velocity on the bottom of the velocity vs. pressure drop chart below. Move up the chart to the most
appropriate size damper line. From the intersection point, move left to determine the pressure drop on the left side of the chart.
For other damper sizes refer to Air Performance Data For All Fire and Smoke Dampers spec sheet.

FSD60-3 SLEEVE DIMENSIONAL DATA
The ʻLʼ dimension is the distance from the end of the sleeve to the damper. The
standard damper location in the sleeve provides enough space for the actuator,
controls, mounting angles and duct connection. The standard sleeve length for
FSDʼs is 20" (508) long and the standard ʻLʼ dimension is 105/8" (270). The standard
‘L’ dimension allows the end of the sleeve to be a minimum of 105/8" (270) to the
wall/floor and up to a maximum of 121/2" (318) to the wall/floor.
*The EFL, PFL, SP100 or TS150 location may be located above, below or on the side of
the actuator depending upon the dampers height.
Optional 17" (432) long sleeve length available. Due to space limitations for actuators
and controls with 17" (432) long sleeves, the damper height (‘B’ dimension) is restricted
to the dimensions shown on the chart below. Consult Ruskin for other sleeve lengths.

Note: The 21" (4533) dimension becomes 32" (813) when the MS4120, FSNF, FSAF
and GGD series are utilized.

FSD60-3 SPACE ENVELOPE

Combination fire smoke dampers are required by

the UL listing to have all actuators and acces-
sories factory mounted, wired and/or piped. The
Ruskin standard is for the actuator to be located
on the right hand side of the damper (onto a fac-
tory installed sleeve or side plate) as viewed from
the jackshaft face of the unit. Larger units may
require multiple actuators which are located on
the right, left and maybe internal mount locations.
See the “Multiple Section Detail” specification
sheet for details. Ruskin’s fire smoke dampers
are not air flow directional, so the dampers may NOTES
be rotated 180° or turned over as long as the 1. The dimensions shown in the chart above are for dampers 14" (356)

FSD60-3 INTErNAL MOUNT ACTUATOr DIMENSION

Ruskin model FSD60-3 has been tested for internal mount

actuators and accessories. These applications may be
preferred where space is limited on the outside of the
damper. Internally mounted actuators do not require the
damper to have a factory installed sleeve or side plate.
