Application

Suitable for use in fire barrier applications.

Description

The FireCurtain FM1 is an automatic fire curtain which seals off an area to contain a fire and to prevent that fire from spreading to other areas. The automatic fire curtain has been tested according to multiple standards and also has a CE mark. The specially developed unwinding mechanism is built into the roller and it unrolls in a gravity fail safe manner without needing power.

Features and benefits:

  • Tested in accordance with EN 1634-1.
  • Certified in accordance with EN 16034 and 13241.
  • Classified according to EN 13501-2.
  • Available with two different fire protection fabrics up to EW20 and EW30.
  • Prevents the breakthrough of flames and spread of fire.
  • Width for a single system from 1500–4000 mm.
  • Width for multiple systems up to 9450 mm.
  • Standard drop up to 5500 mm.
  • Installation into a suspended ceiling for "invisible” fire protection.

Dimensions:

The compact modular system is available in the following dimensions:

  • Width for a single system from 1500–4000 mm.
  • Width for multiple systems up to 9450 mm.
  • Standard drop up to 5500 mm.

Drive technology:

The safe operation of an automatic fire curtain is assured: the unwinding mechanisms have different performance classes for all operating modes.

The unwinding mechanism is installed within the roller and contains, in addition to the high-quality DC motor with its planetary gears, a control board with its own intelligence for carrying out the essential safety-related functions:

  • Control of speed.
  • Locking unit.
  • Monitoring of the “rest” position.
  • Synchronisation of multiple units.
  • “HWD” intermediate position when in gravity-fail-safe mode.
  • Adjustment of the bottom bar.
  • More than 10 000 cycles by internal testing.

Classifications:

In accordance with EN 16034 and 13241:

  • Resistance tests to fire done for more than 240 minutes (to the standard time/temp curve).
  • Classification in accordance with EN 13501-2: E 60 C/ E 180 C1/ EW 30 C1.
  • Reliability test with 500 cycles.
  • Extra reliability test done to DIN 4102-18 with 10 000 cycles.
  • Self-closing durability: EN 14600, Class C1.

Compliance:

  • Tested and certified to European standard EN 16034 and 13241.
  • Furnace test to EN 1634-1.
  • Classified to EN 13501-2.
  • Fire resistance and integrity: E 180 C.
  • Radiation limitation EW 20 or EW30.
  • Reliability test to EN 16034 & 13241 with 500 cycles.
  • Reliability test to DIN 4102-18 with 10 000 cycles.
  • Manufactured to ISO 9001:2015.
  • Third-party certification (A+) according to APF-1817 and APF-1818 certificates.
