No one hurt Made Mar 27, 2012, sent to the company Apr 4, 2012, published by CPSC Apr 18, 2012
The product, in the report: Honeywell Fast Acting, Two Position Actuators Model: MS4120F 1006 - spring return, direct coupled actuators for on/off damper control. Designed to operate in smoke control systems requiring Underwriter’s Laboratories Inc UL555S ratings up to 350 degrees F
Honeywell MS4120F 1006 actuators were being used in the Lincoln Tower fire suppression system in Bellevue, WA. During an annual test for the fire department, a majority of the actuators that were supposed to fail open to allow relief air out of the building, failed to operate properly. Out of 9 actuators tested, 6 exhibited the same failure. The failure was occurring at the main gear shaft. This metal shaft was intended to be mechanically pressed into the spring case and become displaced and loose. The shaft had been only partially pressed into the spring case with allowed the shaft to ‘rock’ in the improper joint which eventually lead to the shaft coming free. Once the shaft joint was compromised, the interior cover bore the eccentric loading from the gear shaft which it was not designed to withstand. The gear cover then broke loose as well, causing the gears to move out of place, grind on each other and eventually causing the gears to become stuck and unable to move.
