Fire Resistant Collars and Fire-Resistant Sealing Materials: Rf-Technologies offers a comprehensive selection of fire resistant collars and high-quality sealing materials that effectively prevent the spread of fire through openings, ensuring reliable compartmentation and enhanced fire safety.
Fire safety is paramount in any building, especially in preventing fire spread. A critical component for maintaining fire resistance in ductwork is the fire damper. This article explores the fire damper’s working mechanism and its crucial role in preserving fire-resistance ratings.
Fire Damper Defined: A specialized device designed to block fire propagation through ductwork in fire-resistant walls and floors, fire dampers seal off ducts, preventing fire spread.
Working Principle: During normal ventilation system operation, the fire damper blade remains open for airflow. In a fire, it swiftly closes via an automatic mechanism triggered by a fusible link.
Temperature Sensing and Activation: When duct temperature exceeds around 72°C, the fusible link activates, causing the fire damper blades to seal the duct and block the fire’s path, preventing spread.
Remote Control and Motorized Models: Some fire dampers offer enhanced functionality with remote control or motorization, closing upon receiving signals from fire safety systems like smoke detectors for rapid response.
Maintenance of Compartmentation: Closed fire dampers maintain compartmentation, dividing the building into fire-resistant compartments, containing fires within specific areas.
Conclusion: At Rf-Technologies, we are committed to innovation and excellence in passive fire protection solutions. Our extensive product range, encompassing fire dampers, smoke control systems, field controllers, fire rated grilles, fire collars, and more, ensures optimal fire safety for various commercial and institutional buildings throughout Europe.
