Introduction

The Clearfire 2000 LV Series is a dual purpose roof mounted natural Smoke & Fire Ventilator suitable for smoke and heat release and day-to-day environmental use, with the in-built facility for the provision of permanent ventilation via the opening side dampers.

Application

Suited to applications where continuous ventilation is required together with the feature of opening the large area of louvre blades for increased ventilation or emergency smoke & heat release. Aerodynamically designed to maximise efficiency the units are suitable for a wide variety of applications ranging from industrial/commercial buildings to shopping centres and atria.

Product Testing

Full independent product testing including opening mechanism, operational reliability, wind load, aerodynamic efficiency, mechanical integrity, environmental & fire performance all conforming & certified to EN 12101-2 specification..

Aerodynamic coefficient of top louvres 0.60 - 0.62 dependant upon size - refer to brochure above.

Energy Conservation

The louvre blades and dampers are fixed with weatherproof sealing tape and energy strips to minimise draughts and heat loss when the blades and side dampers are in the closed position.
The Clearfire 2000 LV Series is also available with insulated blades or translucent polycarbonate blades. Insulated side dampers are also an option.
