1. INTRODUCTIONThe aim of this technical and operational documentation (DTR) is to acquaint the user with purpose,construction, principle of operation, correct assembly and operation of segments of continuousrooflights of the system MCR-Prolight with smoke vents and ventilation hatches. The DTR containsalso additional information on operating conditions, maintenance, and terms of guarantee of theproduct.Observing the recommendations contained in the technical and operational documentation shallensure correct functioning of the systems in the scope of smoke exhaust and/or venting, as well assafety of the system users.

2. PURPOSE OF THE DEVICEContinuous rooflights and skylights of the system MCR-PROLIGHT are devices installed on the roofabove production floors, storage spaces, sporting halls, shops, staircases in residential buildings,communication routes in public buildings – wherever daylight illumination is required. Continuousrooflights and skylights may be equipped with smoke vents, smoke and ventilation hatches, orventilation hatches.Vents mounted on continuous rooflights and skylights of the system MCR-PROLIGHT are used: As smoke vents (smoke exhaust vents) to exhaust smoke, combustion gases and heat energy

from enclosed spaces (production floors, storage spaces, public facilities, etc.) to the outside ofbuildings, in order to protect human lives and property by:• maintaining escape routes with low smoke levels,• facilitating fire-fighting action by creating a low layer with low smoke levels,• providing protection for the building structure and outfit,• limiting fire damage caused by smoke, hot combustion gases and thermal decomposition

products. As ventilation hatches or smoke exhaust and ventilation hatches to perform the daytime natural

ventilation function.Smoke vents in continuous rooflights and skylights are a part of the smoke control system whichincludes other products of MERCOR SA, e.g.: spot smoke exhaust vents MCR-Prolight +, smokecurtains MCR-Prosmoke, central controllers MCR9705 and MCR0204 and others.

Continuous rooflights and skylights of the system MCR-Prolight with smoke exhaust vents, smokeexhaust and ventilation hatches, and ventilation hatches, are accommodated for mounting on flat andsloped roofs, covered with roofing paper, PVC membrane, trapezium sheet metal, roofing tiles or anyother material.

Continuous rooflights and skylights of the system MCR-Prolight with smoke vents and ventilationhatches have the Certificate of Conformance No. ITB-539/W with requirements included in theTechnical Approval no. AT-15-5661/2005 issued by the Building Research Institute in Warsaw.

3. CONSTRUCTION AND TYPES OF THE DEVICEA continuous rooflight or skylight of the system MCR-Prolight consists of:

1. base,2. dome,3. vent with control elements (in version with smoke vents or ventilation hatches).

Fig. 1. Construction of continuous rooflights with example of arc continuous rooflight

1. Base of the continuous rooflight2. Dome of the continuous rooflight3. Smoke and/or ventilation hatches

The base of continuous rooflights (1) is made of galvanised steel sheet of thickness 1.25÷5 mm andstandard modular length 1000, 1250, 2500, 3000 mm. Standard base height is 300 mm or 500 mm.The base is equipped with a lower shelf used for mounting the base on a trimmer beam or on the roofstructure. Modular bases are connected with each other using bolted joints. The base is mounted tothe substrate using self-tapping screws, plain screws, or expansion bolts, depending on the materialsof the supporting structure. In the case of larger spans of continuous rooflights, the bases are stiffenedusing braces at every 2500 ÷ 3000 mm, made of cold-formed steel sections.

The dome of a continuous rooflight (2) is made of cellular polycarbonate (optionally of solidpolycarbonate or acryl) stretched on a structure of aluminium sections. The dome is connected to thebase with fixing elements (screw joints and rivet joints).

A smoke vent or a ventilation vent (3) may be mounted on the dome. Vents may be of single-leaf ordouble-leaf type. Actuated using pneumatic actuators (CO2 – smoke exhaust, compressed air –ventilation) or electrical actuators (24 V= – smoke exhaust or smoke exhaust and ventilation, 230 V~ –ventilation).Tripping of smoke exhaust vents may be realised both manually from the user level and automaticallyby thermal fuses, MCR type central smoke exhaust controllers, or fire alarm signalling controllers.

8. VENT LEAF ADJUSTMENT(HOOK CONSOLE, EKE BOLTS AND 'T' BOLTS)

The vent leaf is connected to the actuator with a hook console. The hook console is locked on a T boltor a plain bolt. Pneumatic and electrical spindle actuators are connected to the hook console with aneye bolt that is screwed into the piston rod/spindle of the actuator. Play of the vent leaf should bereduced by screwing in the eye bolt or by adjusting the T bolt. The eye bolt or the T bolt should beprotected against screwing out with a locknut. In the case if an additional 230 V~ electrical actuator isused for ventilation in a system with pneumatic actuator, the T bolt is screwed into the toothed strip orthe spindle of the electrical actuator.

Fig. 26. T bolt Fig. 27. Hook console Fig. 28. Eye bolt

9. CONTROLOperation of the smoke exhaust vents and ventilation hatches in continuous rooflights requires somedevices for their opening and closing. These devices form a control system for smoke exhaust orsmoke exhaust and ventilation. Depending on the type of devices used, a smoke exhaust controlsystem may be executed as:

• pneumatic system,• electrical system,• pneumatic-electrical system (pneumatic part for smoke exhaust and electrical part controlling

the ventilation).Depending on the method of control, the vents are equipped with pneumatic actuators with thermaltrippers, electrical actuators, and additionally with pneumatic and electrical actuators for naturalventilation control.

Fig. 29. Connection of actuators with hook console

9.1. Pneumatic controlAfter the smoke exhaust actuator is installed in the cross-bar, make the necessary connections of thepneumatic system and adjust the actuator. The adjustment consists in connecting the eye bolt of thepneumatic actuator with the bolt of the hook console, and adequate adjustment so that the consolereliably locks on the catch.Pneumatic systems between actuators, thermal trippers and other control elements should beexecuted using e.g. copper/steel tube for smoke exhaust control systems and flexible tube forventilation only control systems.

Fig. 30. Method of mounting the flexible conduits of the ventilation system

Fig. 31. Connection of the hose joint with the copper tube

Threaded connections of hose joints with valves, actuators, etc. are sealed using suitable chemicalagents, e.g. Loctite 243 (recommended) or Teflon tape, by winding it on the thread. Loctite 243 shouldbe applied in several (2-3) drops on the thread for sealing. After making the screwed connection,Loctite 243 sets, sealing the connection and protecting it against uncontrolled loosening (important inthe case of actuator connections). Such protected hose joint may only be unscrewed using hand tools.

NOTE: For safety reasons during transport, the supplied thermal tripper is not armed. After thevent is mounted in the continuous rooflight, the thermal tripper should be armed.Arming procedure of the thermal tripper:

- check if the screw tightening the needle spring (1) is unscrewed, and if not, fully unscrew itmanually,

- install the alcohol ampoule (2) in the gas flow controller socket, with the sharpened endtowards the body, and manually tighten the screw fastening the ampoule,

- slide in the valve slider (4),- fully tighten the needle spring using the screw (1) – manually,- check if the cartridge needle is hidden, and if the gasket is present in the cartridge socket,- manually screw in the CO2 cartridge (3).

Fig. 33. Lock releasing direction in a pneumatic actuator

Pneumatic actuators for smoke exhaust have an internal lock that prevents the closing of a fullyopened vent leaf. Method of closing the vent leaves after emergency opening for systems without theremote closing function:

1. Release CO2 from the system by unscrewing the cartridge from the thermal tripper or theemergency box (note: the system is under high pressure – unscrew slowly, note: the cartridgemay freeze).

2. Release the locks of the actuator (5), by lifting them in the direction of the operating movementof the actuator (in accordance with the arrow in Fig. 33).

3. Lower the vent leaf.4. Check the condition of the leaf lock.5. Repeat the steps 2-4 for the other leaf.6. Insert a new CO2 cartridge into the thermal tripper or the emergency box.7. Possibly replace the thermal fuse (alcohol ampoule (2)).

9.2. Electrical controlAfter the electrical smoke exhaust actuator is installed in the cross-bar, make the necessary electricalconnections and adjust the actuator. The adjustment consists in connecting the eye bolt of theelectrical actuator with the bolt of the hook console, and adequate adjustment so that the consolereliably locks on the catch, while the electrical actuator is switched off after closing the vent by the limitswitch and not by the overload switch.Method of connecting the MCR-W actuator (conductor polarisation):

brown conductor +blue conductor – } spindle moving in brown conductor –

blue conductor + } spindle moving out

For control and power supply of electrical actuators MCR-W for smoke vents MCR PROLIGHTshould be used control units MCR9705 or MCR0204 and extension modules MCRR0424 and /orMCRR0448.

9.3. Ventilation functionThe ventilation functions may be realised using 2 basic methods:

- using pneumatic actuators with adequate system,- using an additional electrical actuator supplied with 230 V~ (figure below).

The electrical actuator for ventilation is usually not factory-mounted due to transport considerations. Itshould be mounted in the upper cross-bar into the prepared holes, using screws ST 12 1/8 (for theExxx-230 actuator) or threaded bolts (JMB actuators) delivered with the actuator. The actuator isequipped with a T bolt that is used interchangeably with the eye bolt connecting to the hook console.A weather monitoring station, e.g. MCRP054, is recommended in the ventilation control system, toclose the opened vents in the case of a strong wind or rain, in order to protect the user property andthe vent structure against damage.
