This is how fire curtains and smoke curtains work

The technology behind the construction means that the fire curtains close automatically if a signal comes from the fire alarm. They are made of a special fabric that is fire rated in the classes:

  • E – can protect openings of up to 30 meters
  • EW – fire curtain with safety distance
  • EI – the most common classification. A combination of E-rated curtain and a sprinkler system.

An essential part when installing fire curtains is that they must achieve the same requirements for fire safety as the wall on which they are installed. Usually the curtain is rolled up and protected inside a steel structure. When the fire alarm goes off, the mechanism is released and the fire curtain is raised. When it is no longer needed, it is rolled up automatically. Adjacent to the curtain is a control system with control panel.

The task of the smoke curtain is to limit the spread of gases in the event of a fire. It is an effective way to facilitate evacuation and to protect people, as it is the smoke that accounts for the most deaths in fire accidents. Täby BrandskyddsTeknik provides smoke curtains that work according to the same technical principles as fire curtains, and curtains that you can go through to evacuate. There are also sectioning smoke curtains that effectively curb the development of smoke and prevent it from spreading.
