NOTE
For safety reasons, vents with pneumatic control are shipped with the
thermal trigger unarmed.
A vent with unarmed thermal trigger is NOT ready for operation.
The thermal trigger must be armed, and a CO2cartridge installed
(point 8.1).

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
Page 3 of 30
1. INTRODUCTION
This operation and maintenance manual (OMM) allows the user to learn the purpose, design,
principle of operation and correct installation of mcr-PROLIGHT smoke vents and smoke &
ventilation vents type DVP and DVPS. The documentation also covers additional information
on the conditions for use, maintenance and terms of the product's warranty.
Observing the guidelines contained herein will ensure the proper functioning of systems in
terms of their smoke exhausting and/or ventilation function, and the safety of system operators.
NOTE
Any works related with installation, operation, maintenance and servicing of the vents
and skylights may only be performed in compliance with SHE requirements, and with use
of appropriate personal protective equipment - including fall arresting devices. Any
works necessitating working at height in order to make electrical connections, etc. may
only be performed by duly licensed persons.
2. PURPOSE OF DEVICE
mcr-PROLIGHT smoke vents are automatic smoke venting devices. The principal function of
mcr-PROLIGHT smoke vents is the removal of heat energy, fire gases, and smoke from
enclosed spaces (production floors, storage rooms, public amenity buildings, etc.) outside the
building, contributing to the protection of life and property, through:
• maintaining escape routes in a state of moderate smoke intensity,
• facilitating fire fighting and rescue operations by providing a bottom corridor with
moderate smoking intensity,
• ensuring protection for the building structure and its equipment,
• limiting fire damage caused by smoke, hot burning fumes and thermal decomposition
byproducts
The smoke vents may also serve the purpose of ventilation vents, smoke & ventilation vents, or
roof skylights.
The use of smoke vents provides the following opportunities to the Investor:
• lowering the building's fire resistance grade
• extending permissible fire zones,
• elongating evacuation routes
mcr-PROLIGHT smoke vents are part of a smoke control system that comprises other
MERCOR SA products, including, among others: mcr-PROLIGHT smoke vents in continuous
skylights and single skylights, mcr-PROSMOKE smoke curtains, mcr 9705 and mcr 0204 control
units, and others.
mcr-PROLIGHT smoke vents have a Certificate of Conformity WE 1488-CPD-0151/W,
issued by the Institute for Building Technologies in Warsaw, certifying the conformance
of the vents design with the requirements of PN-EN12101-2:2005, and Certificate of
Conformity 1396-CPD-0040 issued by Fires s.r.o., NB 1396, Slovakia, certifying the
conformance of the vents design with the requirements of EN 12101-2:2003.
3. DEVICE DESIGN AND PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Depending on the customer's individual requirement, MERCOR offers double-leaf smoke vents
and fixed and opening skylights, on straight bases, in a broad range of clear dimensions and
base heights.
All steel elements of the vents are protected with a zinc coat, applied using hot-dip or galvanic
method.
In standard, the bases are supplied with thermal insulation of thickness 20 mm. Custom
thickness and thermal insulation type is possible.
The glazing options for the opening leaf are as follows:

• multi-chamber polycarbonate of thickness from 10 to 25 mm, with different opacities
and different heat transfer coefficients,
• ALU laminate layers (aluminum - thermal insulation - aluminium.
mcr-PROLIGHT type DVP, DVPS vents are offered with the following control systems:
• pneumatic control,
• electric control,
• mechanical control.
The triggering of smoke vents may be performed both manually - by the user, as well as
automatically - through thermal switches, type mcr smoke exhausting control units, or fire
signalling units.
mcr-PROLIGHT type DVP, DVPS smoke vents comprise of a fixed part - the base, and a
moving part - the leaf with glazing.

4. TRANSPORT AND DELIVERY
mcr-PROLIGHT type DVP, DVPS vents are delivered pre-assembled, but in specific cases
(additional external processing, low base heights, etc.) they may be delivered in the form of
assemblies. The following are always delivered separately: deflectors, dome type leaf glazing
and electrical actuators for ventilation function. This is due to the necessity of protecting
individual vent elements from transport damage, and ensuring safety in road traffic. Unloading
should be performed under the supervision of a person authorized by the manufacturer, using
generally accessible handling equipment, or manually, observing all applicable SHE principles.

5. DEVICE INSTALLATION
The device must be installed in observance of all the applicable SHE principles, particularly
those related with working at height, using adequate personal protective equipment.
The vents must rest on the roof's structural elements such as: purlin, trimmers, structural sheet,
reinforced concrete plinth. Any elements causing collision with the vent leaf at full opening
range should be removed.
The vents may be installed on roofs of steel, concrete or wooden structure. The vent base has a
protrusion (shelf) in its lower part, allowing to rest and fix the vent to the supporting structure.
Fixture elements should be selected depending on the supporting structure's making, according
to the below table. Fixtures should be installed at 50÷60 cm spacing.

min. Ø4.8 mm
concrete
min. Ø6 mm
wood

The vent bases are ready for flashing works with roofing paper, PVC membrane or steel sheet.
The vent base, in its upper part, features a galvanized steel sheet strip at its full circumference,
which is used for fixing flashings/coverings using screws. For roofs covered with roof
membrane, an optional PVC-coated sheet strip may be used to facilitate installation.
NOTE
1. If roofing paper is to be welded to the above mentioned sheet strip, IT IS
ABSOLUTELY REQUIRED to use a cover for protecting the vent glazing and
spacer sleeves from the effect of fire/hot air.

2. After installing the vent, protective foil must be removed from all external
aluminium elements of the vent (pressing frames, pressing strip) and from the
vent glazing (PCA, laminate panels, acrylic domes). Leaving foil on the device may
cause permanent discolorations of elements, and become hard to remove.
3. If the vent is not supplied to the construction site preassembled, maintain special
caution when installing polycarbonate panels. Damaging the tape protecting the
edges of polycarbonate panels will cause contamination to penetrate into the PCA
chambers, which is not covered by warranty.
