Vent Duct Sleeves intumescent fire protection for rectangular pvc ventilation ducting in fire rated walls or floors

VENT DUCT FIRE SLEEVES

Firefly 109 Vent Duct Fire Sleeves are an intumescent solution providing 2 hours fire protection to rectangular PVC ventilation ducting when penetrating fire rated walls or floors.

The Vent Duct Fire Sleeves are ready to install providing a quick and easy solution without the need for foams, mastic or sealant.

The unique intumescent fire sleeve design will crush and seal off the vent duct in a fire and provide fire protection from both sides of the partition.

The pre-formed design does not require additional metal sleeving when fitted in plasterboard partitions and can be simply cut to allow easy fitting even when ducts are fitted tightly against the ceiling soffit.

The FF109 Vent Duct Fire Sleeves are available for all common plastic vent duct sizes.

Under the action of heat, the PVC profile complete fire protection, softens as the intumescent core expands sealing the gap between the door and the door frame, through which fire and toxic gas could pass. The amount of pressure fireplug, developed by the expanding intumescent is dependent on the gap to be sealed. The wider the gap the lower the pressure.. The temperature at which Fireplug Intumescent strip fire protection materials, starts to activate is 120 - 160 oC. At this temperature no one would survive on the fireside of the door and in most cases the thermal shock would be fatal to anyone cable passthrough system suppliers, on the unexposed side opening the door. However, despite the requisite that the pressure developed by the expanding intumescent is sufficient to downlighter protection covers, keep the door closed it is possible to make the door open if required. Perfomance Fireplug IFS104 and IF104 has been tested by TRADA to British Standards ventilation grill manufacturer, BS476 Part 22, on April 20th 1993, test No. FR1687. The test criteria attained in Fireplug Intumescent Strip being acceptable for use in many leading manufacturers intumescent slabs, doors for 30/30 half hour doors, likewise Fireplug IFS104 and IF104 has been tested for use on 60/60 one hour doors. Application Fireplug IFS104 and IF104 is fitted into a groove nominally 10mm wide x 4mm deep. To aid fixing, although not essential, the strip can have a self adhesive backing, alternatives to this are gluing or securing with tacks. intumescent pillows, IFS104 and IF104 are fixed similarly but the groove is nominally 20mm wide x 4mm deep. The groove can be routed into either the door or into the door frame. The rout is along the head of the door and down the jamb. Intumescent is not required along the bottom as in a fire situation a negative pressure results making the air flow in the opposite cable tray blocks, direction to the top. Where the groove is masked by hinges, locks or other door ironmongery we recommend that FIreplug Intumescent Strip is used in conjunction with Fireplug Hinge and Lock Protection.
