Fire-resistant solutions for optimal fire safety

Fire safety represents a major challenge in the design and operation of modern buildings. CAIROX fire-resistant products offer reliable and certified protection against the spread of flames and smoke through ventilation systems and compartmentalization.

Our comprehensive range of fire-resistant solutions includes circular and rectangular fire dampers (EI60S to EI120S), fire-resistant grilles, fire-resistant air exhaust valves, as well as specific accessories such as fire-resistant collars and strips. These products are designed to integrate perfectly into air distribution networks while ensuring maximum safety.

Applications and uses

CAIROX fire-resistant products are specially designed for applications in commercial, industrial, and collective residential buildings. They maintain the integrity of fire compartments by automatically sealing air passages in case of fire, thus preventing the spread of flames and smoke between different areas of the building.

Compliance with European standards

All our fire-resistant products are tested and certified according to current European standards (EN 1366-2, EN 13501-3, EN 15650) and bear the CE marking. They offer fire resistance ranging from 60 to 120 minutes (EI60S to EI120S), thus ensuring optimal protection in compliance with the strictest regulatory requirements.

Innovations and Technical features

CAIROX fire dampers stand out for their robust design and reliability. Equipped with thermal fuses (72°C) or motorization, they trigger automatically in case of fire. Fire-resistant grilles incorporate intumescent materials that expand under heat to completely seal the air passage.

Our technical expertise allows us to offer solutions adapted to each configuration: vertical or horizontal installation, different diameters and dimensions, motorization and detection options. Our products are also designed to facilitate installation and maintenance, with specific accessories for each type of application.

Technical Support and Assistance

CAIROX supports you in choosing and sizing your fire-resistant solutions. Our technical experts are at your disposal to advise you on selecting products suitable for your project, taking into account specific regulatory and technical constraints. We also offer comprehensive technical documentation, detailed installation manuals, and responsive after-sales service.

Your Frequently Asked Questions

The classification indicates the fire resistance duration of the product in minutes. An EI60S damper resists fire for 60 minutes, while an EI120S provides protection for 120 minutes. The 'S' means that the product also ensures cold smoke tightness. The choice between these classifications depends on the specific regulatory requirements for the building and its use.

Thermal fuse dampers trigger automatically when the temperature reaches 72°C, without requiring electrical power. Motorized dampers can be controlled by the building's fire safety system and allow remote or automatic closure in case of fire detection. The choice depends on the desired integration with the building's safety system and regulatory requirements.

Fire-resistant grilles such as our GE60 model are designed for natural ventilation systems without pressure. They are not suitable for mechanical ventilation systems where pressure is exerted on the grille. For these applications, it is preferable to use fire dampers adapted to pressure conditions.

Regulations generally require annual verification of fire safety devices. For fire dampers, it is recommended to regularly check their proper functioning (opening/closing), the condition of the thermal fuse or motor, and to clean any dust accumulation. Fire-resistant grilles require little maintenance, but periodic visual inspection is advised.

Installation must be carried out in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and applicable standards. CAIROX provides detailed installation manuals with each product. It is essential to respect the mounting conditions specified in the test reports (wall type, fixing method, etc.) to guarantee the declared fire-resistant performance. In case of doubt, our technical service can assist you.
