Other landing traffic was redirected to runway 16 following the landing of TS-315.
The airline reported the aircraft diverted as a precaution for a technical verification.
On Jul 22nd 2015 the Canadian TSB reported that the flight crew was informed about smoke and an acrid odour in the cabin, declared PAN PAN, initiated an emergency descent and diverted to Dublin. While working the emergency checklists the crew received an ECAM indication of a fault in the cabin circulation system. Once the checklists were completed, the smoke rapidly dissipated and the aircraft landed without further incident. Maintenance identified a right hand recirculation fan as source of the smoke and odour. The fan was replaced.
