Description
Natural casement roof ventilator, suitable for natural smoke control and day-to-day ventilation.
Features and benefits:
- Wide range of applications: Firelight is classed as a dual-purpose ventilator. Polycarbonate and glass ventilation versions allow the entry of natural daylight, and a wide range of infill panels are available.
- Pneumatic, electric linear, electric chain or electric tubular fail safe drives or hand controls are available.
- High aerodynamic, acoustic and thermal performance, and has a high resistance to the effects of fire.
- Exhaustively tested and certified to EN 12101-2: 2003 in accredited third-party test laboratories and is CE marked. Tested and certified according to EN 14351. Manufactured under the ISO 9001 quality standard.
- Easy to install: delivered fully assembled to site. May be installed at any angle from the horizontal to the vertical (0–110º) onto a curb, into sheeting or into glazing.
- Wide range of base profiles to suit most sheeting, curb or glazing applications.
- Durable: Manufactured from tough, corrosion-resistant aluminium grade 6063-T6 alloy, with stainless steel fixings.
- Low profile and slim frames.
Also available as a single flap ventilator with high aerodynamic, acoustic and thermal performance (Firelight FL3) or as a double flap ventilator (Firelight Duo); both specified separately.
