Safety Matters

Fires are notonly a majorthreat forhuman lives

Smoke and fumes account for more than 70% of all fire victims.

What means halogenfree?

Non PVC plastics are mostly halogenfree but not flame retardant.

halogenfrei = material property(non PVC)


8/38



In contrast to PVC, halogenfree materials do not release

corrosive gases.

HFT

= product property halogenfree

flame retardant

temperature resistant


HFT is a registered Univolttrademark and refers to halogenfree

finished products.


10/38


Univoltproducts marked as LSF0H are special HFTitems and

comply with EN 61034 requirements.

LSF0H = improved product properties minimised smoke release

no halogenated flame retarders

Flashover

Flashover refers to a sudden ignition of combustible materials

in an enclosed area.

ignition offlammablegases


14/38

Flashover

While the burning materials relase smoke, heat accumulates within

the enclosed area.

15/38

Flashover

Within the first 15 minutes the heat accumulation causes a steady

temperature increase.

16/38

At a temperature of 500 to 600 C, combustible gases and

fumes ignite without pilot flame.

17/38

As a consequence, the temperature rapidely rises to levels

of up to 1000 C.

Flashover

Thus, a flashover triggers a massive fire extension, impeding

firefighting operations.

Smoke Effects

PVC conduits

95% dimming

after 5 minutes

Burning PVC generates dense and harmful smoke.



22/38

Smoke Effects

PVC conduits

Within very short time burning PVC impedes evacuation measures

and poses serious health threats.

95% dimming

Smoke Effects

PVC conduits

PVC smoke reacts with water and humidity and forms aggressive

hydrochloric acid, threatening structures and human health.

Comparison HFT- PVC

increased safety in caseof fires

equal chemical resistance(e.g. concrete)

similar installation andhandling

no generation of toxicgases

wider temperature range,better UV stability

HFTsystems are ideally chosen for projects with increased safety

requirements.

maintenance-free overproduct life-cycle

Offering similar mechanical characteristics like steel, HFTsystems

are particularly easier to instal, insulating, and maintenance-free.
