Description

The more compact and space-conscious fire shutter solution, fully tested and certified in accordance with the latest fire standards BS EN 1634-1:2014 + A1:2018 and BS EN 16034:2014.

Test report: Warrington Fire WF Report No. 410300 dated of 27th June 2019 in accordance with BS EN 1634-1 2014+ A1 2018.

Features and benefits:

  • One-hour, two-hour or four-hour fire rating.
  • Weight: 45 kg/m².
  • The shutter curtain is constructed from cold rolled galvanized steel laths, 76 mm x 22 swg. Each lath is retained by cast iron end locks fixed with galvanized steel rivets.
  • Finish: Galvanized as standard, powder-coated finish can be provided at extra cost.

Fire operation:

The control panel is designed to accept a 24 V d.c. or volt-free fire signal.

  • On receipt of the fire signal the control panel will send a signal to close the door under power.
  • In ‘sleep’ mode the UPS will be turned off and only become ‘live’ when a command is given to the FDI-UPS controller.
  • This will ensure that the UPS can provide the maximum standby time by using power only when required.
  • This will allow a fully charged UPS to provide a supply for several days after a power failure.
  • When the mains supply is healthy the UPS will become ‘live’ almost immediately and power the motor. If a power failure occurs, there will be a delay of approx. three seconds for the UPS to fully ‘wake up’ before the motor will run. This three second delay also acts as a warning that there may be a problem with the mains supply to the UPS.

Components:

  • Roller curtain.
  • Bottom rail.
  • Side guides and angles.
  • Roller barrel.
  • Endplates.
  • Coil casings.
