reinforced glass fabric curtain and galvanised steel box assembly and guide rails. The
box, guide rails and bottom rail can be powder coated as an optional extra.

FC240 Minute fire curtain under test

The curtain is powered by a 24v DC motor which includes gravity fail safe as standard.
This curtain is designed to remain open during normal use and only to be closed
during a test or an emergency situation. In the event of receiving a fire alarm signal ora power failure the barrier will perform a controlled descent to create a fire resistantbarrier.
From the above data it can be calculated using a formula from the SFPE Handbook,section 2, that it would be possible for building occupants to safely pass a 6.0m wide
Guardian fire curtain at a distance of 1.0m after a period of 60 minutes.
