FIREFIGHTER

NATURAL SMOKE AND HEATEXHAUST VENTILATOR

Safety has got a name:

FIREFIGHTER

Whenever architects, consulting

engineers, main contractors

and clients set the highest

standards, similar systems

must endure to be compared

with the performance range

of the FIREFIGHTER.

Of course this system meets

the highest demands regarding

stability, thermal and sound

insulation, wind forces,

snow loads, sealing, etc.

FIREFIGHTER BENEFITS:

� Preventive fire protection

� Day-to-day ventilation

� Natural daylight

� Excellent sound insulation up to 39dB

� Thermal separation in accordance with DIN 4108

� Excellent thermal insulation

� Integration in combustible roof constructions complying with the

new regulations VdS 2098 and DIN 18232

FIREFIGHTER

FIREFIGHTER is available in two versions:

The DUO-version has flat top flaps whilst the DELTA-version

has top flaps at a 30° angle. Almost every combination of

insulated glass design can be installed in the thermally

separated version.

FIRE PROTECTION FOR PROFESSIONALS

FIREFIGHTER in combination with the domelight

system EUROLIGHT provides optimum natural

daylighting, improves working conditions by natural

ventilation as well as safety in the case of fire by

automatic natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilation

in time.

FIREFIGHTER DELTA in coloured version with insulated glas-topflaps – fixed on upstand – on a flat roof – for fire ventilation anddaylighting in an industrial building.

FIREFIGHTER DELTA – powder – coated with Aluminium sound-insulated top flaps – fixed on upstand – on flat roof for fireventilation – on an industrial textile-plant.

FIREFIGHTER DELTA with Aluminium – sound insulated top flaps –twin version – on a theatre

FIREFIGHTER DELTA in combination with the dome-light systemEUROLIGHT with polycarbonat top flaps – on an Aircraft-hangar

FIREFIGHTER DELTA for natural smoke and heat exhaustventilation – natural ventilation and daylighting – electric controlls– on a stair well

The Firefighter is always reliable,

even when used every day,

due to the precision-engineered

castings used for all construction

details and operating parts.

A double-skinned mounting

frame ensures easy, quick and cost

effective installation.

None of the pivot hinges

require maintenance.

FIREFIGHTER ADVANTAGE BY PRECISION

All components of the frame are made from

extruded aluminium profiles of the alloy AlMgSi5.

This provides that the FIREFIGHTER is dimensionally

stable, torsion rigid and corrosion resistant. The

thermal separation according to DIN 4108 is

achieved by using extruded polyamide rods in order

to avoid condensation problems.

FIREFIGHTER DUO operation detail

Effective drainage of rainwater is

achieved by an aerodynamically

formed central rain channel.

Professional frame-tube sealing

ensures a minimum of heat loss and

high degree of sound insulation.

Direct power transmission, resistant

against wind influence, double

interlocking and stable top flaps are

important construction characteristics.

The FIREFIGHTER can be equipped with specialsound insulating top flaps, whenever a high soundinsulation is required, for example in theatres, musichalls, cinemas, etc. The top flaps are designed in asandwich construction, filled with a soundinsulation and sound absorption panelling.

OPERATION

Operation of the top flaps is achieved by

compressed air via two pneumatic cylinders,

which lock the Firefighter in its opened or

closed position. Due to optimised stable

construction-parts, Firefighter ensures high

mechanical resistance and durable

effective sealing.

FIREFIGHTER TAKES FIREPRECAUTIONS SERIOUS

CONTROL AND RELEASE

� Automatically via thermal priority valve

� Automatically via smoke detectors

� Manually via pneumatic control panel

� Manually via electric remote releasethermal priority valve

TOP FLAPS OBTAINABLE

There are different versions of top flaps.

The standard versions are insulated glass,

sound and heat insulated double skinned

aluminium top flaps as well as those with

polycarbonate double skinned.

Due to the frame construction many

other special versions are possible.

FIREFIGHTER TECHNOLOGY IN DETAIL

By using glass top flaps the Firefighter

becomes a DIN-approved transparent

fire ventilation system, which meets the

demands of the fire classification

A1 – non combustible.

Intermediate dimensions in DIN-approved versions are avaiblable on demand.

The natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilation system FIREFIGHTERmeets the standards of preventive fire protection according to DIN18232 and VdS 2159.

Being a part of the roof it meets all the standardsregarding stability und heat as well as sound insulation.

The unit base and top flap construction is made of AlMgSi5 withintegrated thermal separation. The choice of flap inserts are either of aluminium sandwich sheets,insulated glass or polycarbonate.

The versions A33 / G33 are heat-bridge-free and condensation-water safe as according to DIN 4108.

Equipped with weatherproof profiled sealings between unit baseframe und top flaps.

The units are manufactured with an integrated rain drainagesystem.For higher safety standards the base frames and the top flaps aremanufactured from non combustible materials according to DIN4102.

The maintenance-free pneumatic cylinders have to lack in openand closed position to withstand pressures of >500 N/m2 undsuction forces of >1500 N/m2.

FIREFIGHTER SPECIFICATION

All pivot points have stainless steel bolts that are installed inmaintenance-free Teflon coated bronze bearings.

In the event of fire, by reaching a temperatur of 68 °C, forexample, the thermal priority valve initiates via a CO2 pressureampoule, the pneumatic cylinders to open the top flaps. Theequipment can be remotely activated by a central controlsystem.

The equipment is delivered on site, preassambled and qualitytested by the manufacturer, ready for installation.

The construction is connected to the metal mounting frame withburglar-proof, self tensioning connectors.
