INSULATED FIRE CURTAIN

An Insulated Fire Curtain is an Automatic Barrier / Curtain System that is a Fire Separating Element. It comprises fire resistant fabric fixed to a steel roller which is driven by an internal tubular electric motor.

The roller is mounted and enclosed in a steel housing and the bottom edge of the curtain has a weighted bar. The curtain is retained in side channels. It is activated from a Fire Detection System and closes to the finished floor level.

Once deployed the insulated curtain can provide a protected means of escape as well as enabling fire crews to safely tackle the fire right next to the curtain. Even with a 1200 deg C inferno, combustible materials can be stored half a metre away.
