Markage FD. XS to XXL slimline fire compartmentation

Posted on by

The new MARKAGE FD is a EI90S-classified rectangular multi-blade fire damper for wall mounting in light and rigid walls. Thanks to its slimline design (without protruding damper blades), it is an ideal damper for applications with limited space requirements but, eventually, high air flow requirements. The FD is available in small to very large sizes (up to 1.000 x 2.400 mm).

The slimline profile of the MARKAGE FD brings a number of benefits, both in the design and installation stage:

  • Its slimline dimensions with no protruding damper blades makes the MARKAGE FD the ideal fire damper for installations with space restrictions but, eventually, high air flow requirements.
  • Think installation next to 90° bends or T-junctions without interfering with the net section of the adjacent duct.
  • Or installations including a grill on one end of the damper.
 
The larger dimensions of the MARKAGE FD allow for catering high flow requirements in just one or a limited number of slimline fire damper(s).

Larger dimensions reduce the need for battery assemblies when dealing with high air flow requirements:

  • easier to plan and calculate
  • easier to install and connect
  • only 1 point of connection for power, monitoring and controlling
  • combined with the benefits of a slimline design without protruding damper blades

till W2400 x H1000mm)

The MARKAGE FD comes in the following range: 200 x 200 – 1.000 x 2.400 mm. Width per 50mm, height in steps of 200mm.

The new FD is equipped with BELIMO fire damper actuators BFL, BFN and BF in 24V, 24V-ST and 230V-versions. From H1.200mm on, actuation is achieved by combining multiple Belimo actuators (number and actuators used are height dependent).

Product features & benefits

  • Only 250mm deep and no protruding damper blades
  • CE-certified according EN15650:2010
  • Tested according EN1366-2 & classified according EN13501-3
  • 90’ classifications in gypsum board wall systems and massive walls
  • Vertical and horizontal axis orientation (0°, 90°, 270° & 360°)
  • Range from W200 x H200 till W1.000 x H2.400mm
  • Net sections from 0,034 to 2,04m2
  • Communication field devices can be added in the actuator compartment
  • Installation aids

Typical applications

  • Compartmentation for HVAC-installations with high airflow requirements
  • Eventually, with duct on one side and grill on the other end:
    – car parks, exhibition or sports facilities, large technical rooms
  • Compartmentation for HVAC-installations with limited available space in shafts or for
    connecting to ducting bends:
    – no conflicts with protruding damper blades
    – for small to very large sizes

Classifications

The MARKAGE FD has following classifications (for range 200 x 200 till 1.000 x 2.400mm): 

In light & massive wall 100mm: EI 90 (ve i<->o) S (300Pa)

In combination with:

  • ≥100mm GKF (EN520) Gypsum board wall system 
  • ≥100mm aerated concrete wall ≥550kg/m3
  • Sealed with mortar (MW) or coated HD stonewool boards ≥140kg/m3 (LW & MW) 
  • 0, 90, 180 & 270° axis orientation

Experience Safety and Hygiene with Rf-Technologies

Posted on by

Ventilation and air conditioning systems in multi-story residential housing, office buildings, hospitals and specific production facilities demand the highest level of hygiene and safety. At Rf-Technologies, we understand the importance of meeting these stringent requirements, which is why we offer a range of fire dampers that have undergone rigorous testing and certification, earning them the ‘VDI 6022 Hygiene Certified’ label.

All of our products are engineered to be safe and hygienic, irrespective of their application. However, we recognize that some environments require an even higher level of hygiene, for example hospitals, pharmaceutical, food, semiconductor, and aerospace production facilities. Ventilation and air conditioning systems in these buildings need to comply with official hygiene requirements ensuring that no dangerous, hazardous, or risky substances are released to the surrounding environment.

Our fire dampers, integrated within these ventilation systems, are designed to meet these increased hygiene and safety standards. Every single CU-LT, CR60 or CR120 (rectangular and circular) fire damper leaving our factory satisfies the VDI 6022 hygiene requirements. Even for the largest dimensions we can provide a solution with our CU2 damper (hygiene certified upon request).

At Rf-Technologies, we are committed to providing safe and hygienic solutions that meet the most demanding requirements of ventilation and air conditioning systems worldwide. Trust in our Hygiene Certified fire dampers to ensure the safety and hygiene of your critical environments.

New classifications make Rf-t’s SC+ Butterfly Valves unique in the market

Posted on by

Rf Technologies introduces these new additions, resulting in an unparalleled offering in the market.

Our SC+ butterfly valves already possess the most comprehensive classifications in the market, and these latest developments mean that you can now generate even more configurations with our butterfly valves, setting us apart as truly unique in the market.

Here are the key highlights:

 

Expansion of Classifications:

For the SC+60 and SC+90 models, new classifications have been incorporated. The potential seal options for SC+60 have been expanded to include gypsum and coated stone wool, applicable to both flexible and solid walls. Additionally, for the SC+90, a sealing option involving gypsum + 2×12.5mm gypsum boards within 100mm flexible and solid walls is introduced.

New Minimum Distances for 60 and 90 Minutes:

The aforementioned new classifications can also be employed with minimum distances of 50mm between 2 SC+ butterfly valves and 45mm between an SC+ butterfly valve and the ceiling or wall.

Upcoming: Classifications with Armaflex Insulation!

Rf-t has successfully completed 60-minute fire tests with 3 types of Armaflex insulation around the air ducts. The tested types are:

1. PROTECT
2. ULTIMA
3. EVO

The classifications for these new sealing methods will be added shortly. You will undoubtedly find more information about this in an upcoming newsletter. These additions underscore our dedication to consistently offering innovative and reliable solutions that align with the needs of our customers.
