Fire resistance measures how long a door unit retains its sealing and thermal insulation properties. It is measured using the EU Euroclass classification system.
EUROCLASS E | Resistant to gas and flames |
---|---|
EUROCLASS I | Supplementary to Class E Thermal insulation with a maximum of 360 °C at a specific spot and/or a maximum of 180 °C over the entire door |
RESISTANCE TIME | Expressed in minutes |
EXAMPLE 1 | EI 30: resistant to gas, flames and keeps out heat for 30 minutes |
---|---|
EXAMPLE 2 | E 60: resistant to gas and flames for 30 minutes (no performance for class I) |
The French classification system includes PF (Flame Arrester) and CF (Fire Proof) categories. In general terms, Euroclass E corresponds to the French PF and Euroclass EI corresponds to CF.
