| 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.
