Actuator swap after the vent will move
Force is in newtons and travel is in millimetres. A replacement that looks similar can stall if the stroke is short or the hinges have dropped. We free a dragging casement before fitting a new chain. Obsolete 24 V bodies are identified from the label.
The fire-alarm contact is a named input
Most stair vents should open from a volt-free contact the cause-and-effect describes, often fire in the stair or a lobby, not “any device in the building”. We test the input the drawing names. After an alarm-panel change, that relay is the first thing that goes missing.
Automatic opening vents are life-safety smoke control, so this sits with fire protection and is quoted across the UK. Population figures are the published resident counts named above. They are not a survey of vents in Locks Heath/Warsash/Whiteley.
