Fire resistance and smoke control tests for door and shutter assemblies, openable windows and elements of building hardware - Part 3: Smoke control test for door and shutter assemblies

This Part of EN 1634 specifies a method for determining the leakage of cold and warm smoke from one side of a door assembly to the other under the specified test conditions. The test can be applied to door and shutter assemblies of different types intended for purposes of controlling the passage of smoke in case of fire. This test can also be applied to lift landing doors and conveyor system doors and shutters. The principle of the test is explained briefly in annex A.

Essais de résistance au feu et d’étanchéité aux fumées des portes, fermetures, fenêtres et éléments de quincailleries – Partie 3: Essais d’étanchéité aux fumées des portes et fermetures

La présente partie de l'EN 1634 spécifie une méthode permettant d'établir l'étanchéité d'un côté d'un bloc porte à la fumée froide et chaude, dans les conditions d'essai spécifiées. L'essai peut être appliqué à différents types de blocs-portes et de blocs-fermetures destinés à contrôler le passage de la fumée en cas d'incendie. Cet essai peut également être appliqué aux portes palières des ascenseurs et aux portes et fermetures des systèmes de bandes transporteuses. Le principe de l'essai est expliqué brièvement dans l'Annexe A.
