Suited to most industrial and commercial buildings.

Description

Automatic smoke curtain preventing the movement of smoke and heat generated by a fire from one area to another by channelling or containing the smoke and heat.

The smoke curtain has fixing options to suit all types of ceiling configurations and can be integrated into either a suspended or a solid ceiling. It remains hidden until required.


The smoke curtain comprises a flexible heat resistant fabric that is impervious to smoke and hot gases, wound around a circular tube. Upon receiving a signal from the fire detection or on loss of power the curtain automatically unwinds to its operational position.


Smokemaster SM5 smoke curtains are well suited to most industrial and commercial buildings as they are unobtrusive, moving to their active position only when needed.


Features and benefits:

  • High performance: designed to operate for 1000 cycles at normal ambient temperatures in the range 0–60⁰C, and to withstand hot air and smoke at temperatures up to 600⁰C for up to 120 minutes once only.
  • Wide range of options: can be adapted to the physical constraints of the building. All system components can be customized.
  • Certified performance and CE marked.
  • D120 curtain material achieves a resistance to smoke at 600°C for a minimum of 120 minutes.
  • DH120 curtain material achieves a resistance to heat for a period of 120 minutes, following the time-temperature curve in EN 1363-1 with a temperature of 1049°C at the end of the test.
  • All types of material achieve class A2-s1, d0, in accordance with BS EN 13501-1.

Insert requirements.

  • Overall available curtain lengths are from 1500 mm to an infinite length, and drops are available from 500–15 000 mm.
  • Alternatively, single units are available with up to a 5000 mm length and with a drop of 2750 mm (maximum).


A requirement above these sizes will be met by installing either double horizontal or double vertical units.

Manufacturer guidance

Side guides:

  • FR: The rollers mounted on the sides of the curtain ensure that it is fixed tightly into the side guides and so provide additional stability.
  • FS: The loops attached to the side of the fabric work together with the vertical 20 mm diameter guide tubes to hold the fabric tightly within the side guides, and so provide additional stability. As a result there is minimal air leakage around the edge of the curtain.
