Salt spray exposure test
A.1 General
The methods and equipment described in EN 60068-2-52:1996 shall be used with the following revised parameters (see A.2).
A.2 Revised parameters
The values referenced below shall be used and, where they differ, they shall replace any other parameters stated in the referred standard:
EN 60068-2-52:1996, Clause 5 “Salt Solution”:
The salt solution concentration shall be 20 % ± 1 % by weight.
EN 60068-2-52:1996, Clause 6 “Severities”:
Severity 2 shall be used.
EN 60068-2-52:1996, Clause 7 “Initial Measurements”:
The damper shall be fully operational before the test.

Annex ZA
(informative)
Clauses of this European Standard addressing the provisions of the EU
Construction Products Directive
ZA.1 Scope and relevant characteristics
This European Standard has been prepared under Mandate M/109, Fire alarm/detection, fixed firefighting, fire and smoke control and explosion suppression products, given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association.
The clauses of this European Standard shown in this annex meet the requirements of the mandate given under the EU Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC).
Compliance with these clauses confers a presumption of fitness of the smoke control dampers covered by this annex for the intended uses indicated herein; reference shall be made to the information given with the CE marking.
WARNING — Other requirements and other EU Directives, not affecting the fitness for intended use may be applicable to the smoke control dampers falling within the scope of this standard.
NOTE 1 In addition to any specific clauses relating to dangerous substances contained in this standard, there may be other requirements applicable to the products falling within its scope (e.g. transposed European legislation and national laws, regulations and administrative provisions). In order to meet the provisions of the EU Construction Products Directive, these requirements need also to be complied with, when and where they apply.
NOTE 2 An informative database of European and national provisions on dangerous substances is available at the Construction web site on EUROPA (accessed through http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/construction/cpd-ds.
This annex has the same scope as Clause 1 of this standard and is defined by Tables ZA.1 a and ZA.1b. It establishes the conditions for the CE marking of the smoke control dampers intended for the uses indicated below and shows the relevant clauses applicable (see Tables ZA.1 and ZA.1b).
Construction products: Smoke control dampers.
Intended use: Smoke control dampers that are to be used in smoke control systems, either at 600 °С or under fire conditions

The requirement on a certain characteristic is not applicable in those Member States (MSs) where there are no regulatory requirements on that characteristic for the intended use of the product. In this case, manufacturers placing their products on the market of these MSs are not obliged to determine nor declare the performance of their products with regard to this characteristic and the option “No performance determined” (NPD) in the information accompanying the CE marking (see ZA.3) may be used. The NPD option may not be used, however, where the characteristic is subject to a threshold level.ZA.2 Procedure for the attestation of conformity of smoke control dampers
