SUPERCOIL AUTOMATIC SMOKE CURTAINS

Description
Supercoil is designed to span up to 50 m openings on a single roller (one piece) eliminating, for the first time, the need for modular systems which can be difficult to synchronies, allow the passage of excess smoke, require more ceiling space and have reduced reliability.

Incorporating the Supercoil smoke curtain into your project can reduce the requirements for exhaust and air intake openings due to increased efficiency of smoke channelling. Energy efficiency may also be increased by using natural ventilation techniques over smoke extraction fans and other systems - refer to our Smoke & Heat Release Vents/ Natural Ventilation product data for further information.

The header box is compact and this system, as with all of our fire and smoke curtain systems, provides an innovative tensioning system to significantly reduce the likelyhood of the curtain binding and causing motor burnout, significantly increasing the life of the system.

This system has won the high architectural quality (invisible fire protection) special award at the Innovation Competition Architectural and Building Industry 2002 in Europe.

Please refer to our project portfolio for examples of how Supercoil has been incorporated into interior designs.

Applications

Supercoil is an excellent solution for new construction and building upgrades in the following applications:

  • Energy efficient natural ventilation designs
  • Sports stadiums
  • Shopping centres
  • Atriums
  • Large open manufacturing facilities

Static Smoke Curtains

The Supercoil smoke curtain material can be fixed in place to create static smoke baffles.

Installation is simple. The low weight means that there are no load bearing issues that may be associated with other types of systems. Interfacing with complicated ceiling constructions such as arched ceilings and continuous bearers or beams is also easy.

Penetrations for pipe or cables can be made easily, even post installation.

Incorporating Supercoil reservoirs into the smoke venting system in factories and warehouses increases system efficiency and provides cost savings by minimising the requirements for exhaust and air intake openings.
