Bitcon Sliding Fire Doors are designed to fulfill the requirements of the National Test Standard. The core is carefully constructed from our insulative material, which is covered on both sides with steel sheeting and a 3mm channel surround screwed on. Bitcon’s range of Sliding Fire Doors include single, bi-parting and double direction doors.
OVERLAP REQUIREMENTS
Sliding doors are required to overlap the opening by a minimum of l00 mm at the top and 75mm on each side
of the opening.
LABELING
All doors are required to be labeled, indicating BITCON INDUSTRIES (The Manufacturer’s Name), identification number, classification and year of manufacture.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
Bitcon’s range of sliding doors are fitted with a fully automatic closing system, comprising a heat sensitive fusible link and a system of ball bearing pulleys, steel cable, weights and weight casing. The casing can be fitted at either end of the track. The closing system is static under normal circumstances, allowing the door to be opened and closed manually without difficulty. If the link fuses, the door will be moved to the fully closed position.
TRACK
The door runs on two ball bearing trollies, which run in an overhead track bolted to the masonry above the lintel. Flush pull handles are fitted, and the door, which runs clear of the floor, is guided by guide rollers fixed into the floor.
INSTALLATION
Is normally carried out by Bitcon.
