Ceiling Penetrations Fire Protection for Recessed Lights, Loudspeakers & Troffers TENMAT 1 and 2 Hour Fire Rated Light Covers

were designed to fireproof recessed light fixtures and reinstate the performance of fire rated ceiling assemblies, preventing the spread of flames.

The covers are available in various sizes to suit a wide range of lighting products.

The flexible and lightweight enclosures are easy to install and can be fitted in seconds without any assembly required.

TENMAT covers are ventilated to allow heat to

dissipate from the light but in the event of fire the proprietary

intumescent

material

will

be

activated, expanding to seal off the ceiling cut-out.

Cavity Barriers Fire Protection for Ventilated Cladding and Rainscreens External cladding and rainscreens are often installed away from the building structure to allow ventilation and improve the building energy efficiency.

This resulting cavity creates a serious fire protection threat to structures and people.

The void acts like an open chimney and allows the fire to spread quickly both vertically and horizontally around the building.

TENMAT’s range of Ventilated Fire Barriers

(VFB) are designed to maintain the open, ventilated cavity in normal conditions but will expand to seal off the gap in a fire situation.

The VFB Systems are suitable for a variety of cladding applications with cavities ranging from 1” to 20” (from 25mm to 500mm).

FF102 25/50 The FF102 VFB Series are rigid, high expansion intumescent strips encased in aluminum foil.

The FF102 can be mechanically fixed both horizontally

and

vertically

within

ventilated

cavities behind rain screen or cladding systems to act as a cavity fire barrier.

VFBPlus The VFBPlus Ventilated Fire Barrier is a cavity fire barrier system for ventilated cavities up to 500mm TENMAT

combined with high density mineral wool.

Wall Penetrations Fire Protection for Wall Penetrations Once a hole is made it the wall for the passage of cables, installation of electrical outlet boxes, electrical switches, and other services, the integrity of the construction and its ability to prevent the spread of fire is compromised.

TENMAT has developed an innovative range of

fire

stopping

components,

made

out

of

proprietary intumescent materials to restore and reinstate the fire rating of the assembly.

In addition to their passive fire protection capabilities TENMAT materials also exhibit excellent

thermal

and

acoustical

insulation

properties.

Typical applications include Cable Baskets, Cable Trays, Electrical Services and Wall Openings in fire rated partitions.

FF108 Fire Stop Block TENMAT's FF108 Fire Stop Block is a unique,

compressible and fully intumescent alternative to traditional fire stop pillows.

The Fire Stop Block can be supplied in up to 1 meter lengths and then be cut to size on site, to ensure maximum flexibility and minimum wastage.

Electrical Outlet Inserts TENMAT Fire Rated Inserts are a cost effective and

simple solution for protecting electrical switch and socket boxes when fitted in fire rated walls.

The Inserts are pre-formed and can be installed in seconds into the electrical metal or plastic back boxes without assembly or adhesives.

Mechanical Service Penetrations Fire Protection for Mechanical Services Steel, copper, and PVC pipes are found in all domestic and commercial buildings.

A large percentage of these pipes penetrate fire rated constructions such as walls, floors and ceilings.

Once a hole is made in the construction for the passage of pipes/services, the integrity of the construction and its ability to prevent the spread of fire are immediately compromised.

To restore the fire rating, TENMAT has developed a series of unique intumescent components which will prevent the spread of flames from one compartment to another, as well as provide acoustic and thermal insulation.

Vent Duct Fire Wraps TENMAT Vent Duct Wraps are an intumescent

solution providing fire protection to rectangular PVC ventilation ducting when penetrating fire rated walls or floors. The Vent Duct Wraps are ready to install and the 4-piece design provides a quick and easy solution for solid concrete and masonry constructions.
