Applies toceilings with independent fire resistance
Standard(s)EN 13501-2; EN 1364-2
Classification:
EI1530456090120180240
NotesThe classification is completed by ‘(a → b)’, ‘(b → a)’, or ‘(a ↔ b)’ to indicate whether the element has been tested and fulfils the requirements from above or below only or both.
Applies tofacades (curtain walls) and external walls (including glazed elements)

Notes

The classification is completed by ‘(i → o)’, ‘(o → i)’, or ‘(i ↔ o)’ to indicate whether the element has been tested and fulfils the requirements from the inside or outside only or both.

Where required, mechanical stability means that there are no falling parts liable to cause personal injury during the time for the E or EI classification.

Applies toraised floors
Standard(s)EN 13501-2; EN 1366-6
Classification:
R1530
RE30
REI30
NotesThe classification is completed by the addition of the suffix ‘f’ to indicate full fire resistance or ‘r’ to indicate exposure to the reduced constant temperature exposure only.
Applies topenetration seals and linear gap seals

E152030456090120180240
EI152030456090120180240
EW203060
NotesThe I classification is completed by the addition of the suffix ‘1’ or ‘2’ to indicate which definition of insulation is used. The addition of the symbol ‘C’ indicates that the product also satisfies the ‘self-closing’ criterion (pass/fail test) f2.

The ‘C’ classification may be complemented by the digits 0 to 5 according to the use category. Details shall be included in the relevant product technical specification.

Applies tosmoke control doors
Standard(s)EN 13501-2; EN 1634-3
Classification: S200 or Sa depending upon the test conditions fulfilled
NotesThe addition of the symbol ‘C’ indicates that the product also satisfies the ‘self-closing’ criterion (pass/fail test) f3.

The ‘C’ classification may be complemented by the digits 0 to 5 according to the use category. Details shall be included in the relevant product technical specification.

Notes F2The I classification is completed by the addition of the suffix ‘1’ or ‘2’ to indicate which definition of insulation is used. An I classification shall be generated for those cases where the test specimen is a pipe or duct configuration with no assessment of the closure for the conveyor system. The addition of the symbol ‘C’ indicates that the product also satisfies the ‘self-closing’ criterion (pass/fail test) f4.
