Back to Fire Dampers
The FNC1 series fire dampers, suitable for circular ducts up to diameter 400mm, allow maximum security in the prevention of spread of fire in buildings. They guarantee a perfect heat insulation and seal from hot and cold smoke as demonstrated by the various tests carried out in accordance with standard EN 1366-2.
They constitute a barrier from the spread of fire, transfer of heat and spread of harmful fumes and gases because of the use of the seal tested at 300Pa.
By connecting them to fire and smoke alarm systems, it is possible to anticipate the closing of the damper blade before it comes into direct contact with the flame therefore preventing the onset of indirect damages that may result from the spread of fumes generated by combustion.
Technical data
- Diameter range from 100mm up to 400mm.
- Casing made of galvanized carbon steel.
- Classified for installation:
- within rigid walls with fire class EI 60 (ve i↔o) S;
- within floors with fire class EI 60 (ho i↔o) S;
