Leminar Air Conditioning Industries has successfully tested and certified its Flame Safe Non-Coated Duct Systems for fire performance at Applus+ Laboratory in Spain.
Flame Safe, which is designed and developed entirely by Leminar, is a cost-effective alternative to coated type duct system. It was introduced to the market in the early part of 2016, making Leminar the only manufacturer in the Middle East to produce both coated as well as non-coated type fire rated ducts within the same facility.
The recent test results have confirmed the products strict compliance with the technical specifications required by British Standard 476 part 24 (ISO 6944) that relates to a ductworks ability to resist the spread of fire. Flame Safe meets and exceeds the stability, integrity and insulation criteria set forth under this framework.
The results also validate Flame Safes superior quality and Leminars credible manufacturing practices. Dipak Bhadra, general manager, Leminar Air Conditioning Industries, said: Integrity is an important value at Leminar. From our early days, we have voluntarily opted to subject all our products to rigorous testing in European countries. Testing helps to increase the product’s reliability by detecting latent defects, improves its quality and ensures any post-sale incidents. We believe it is one of the best ways to make sure we offer only the highest quality products to our customers.
Testing was conducted for both Type A (Fire outside) & Type B (Fire inside) un-insulated and insulated ducts suitable for smoke, ventilation, car park extract, pressurisation systems and commercial kitchen extract systems. In addition to this testing, Leminar has also obtained certification & third party listing with Exova Warringtonfire, UK for Flame Safe.
