ColourPicker Explained

In general we sort colours for products into 2 main groups - ‘Ready Mixed’ and ‘Tinted’.
Tinted colours will always be more expensive than Ready Mixed colours as they need to be produced at the time of order using a tinting machine dispensing colourant into a base*.
During busy periods, this means that tinted colours could take longer, for example – a ready mixed colour ordered on a 3-5 day delivery might arrive within 3 days, however a tinted colour might take the full 5 days to arrive.

To find Ready Mixed colours, search "ready mixed" or select the Ready Mixed 'colour chart'. To see Tinted colours select a colour chart such as RAL, BS, NCS, etc. or search for a colour/hue to see available or related options.

To ensure fair pricing, we split colours into ‘Price Bands’ to group together similar priced colours. If you wish to search for the cheapest tinted colours, always select Price Band 1.

We make every effort to list all available colours, however we also offer a colour match service which can be accessed by contacting our Technical Team on 0113 245 5450 (option 2) or emailing [email protected]

*Colours are sold in the nearest tin size but actual paint volume per tin may vary up to 10% depending on colour

Description

Fire Protection for Ventilation Systems

Protecta FR Damper is designed to prevent fire and smoke from spreading through ventilation ducts that penetrate fire-rated walls and floors. The damper features a steel casing with horizontal blades that expand under heat to seal off airflow. It ensures fire resistance up to EI 120 in compliance with EN 1366-12:2014 and EN 1363-1:2012.

Where Can It Be Used?

This fire damper is suitable for installation in drywalls, masonry, concrete walls, timber walls, concrete floors, and timber floors. It fits seamlessly into standard ducting systems, making it ideal for industrial, commercial, and specialised fire protection applications. It can be used in fire-rated compartments, ventilation ducts, and combined service penetrations, including cables and pipework.

How It Works

The damper closes off the fire compartment while allowing smoke to be extracted from unaffected areas, helping to protect ventilation fans and sensitive equipment. The steel blades contain advanced heat-reactive graphite, which expands to seal the damper completely during a fire. The unit operates without any electrical connection, ensuring reliability even in power failure conditions.

Installation and Compatibility

Protecta FR Damper can be installed in various ways, either by integrating it into the fire seal before connecting to ducting or attaching it to the ductwork before sealing. It is compatible with Protecta fire-stopping products such as:

Installation should follow the provided technical guidelines, ensuring correct spacing, positioning, and fire-rated sealing to meet regulatory standards.
