Automatic Smoke Curtain

1. System Overview

The Automatic Smoke Curtain is a critical smoke control and smoke compartmentation device used in building fire protection systems. It is typically installed at the ceiling level or concealed within suspended ceilings. Under normal conditions, the curtain remains hidden or retracted. Upon receipt of a fire alarm signal during a fire event, the smoke curtain automatically deploys downward to form an effective smoke barrier within designated areas, controlling smoke movement and creating safer conditions for occupant evacuation and firefighting operations.

This product is widely applied in commercial complexes, transportation hubs, public buildings, and industrial facilities. It is a key smoke control component that operates in coordination with smoke exhaust systems and is consistent with internationally recognized fire protection and smoke management design principles.

2. Key Advantages

1. Automatic Response and Rapid Deployment
   Interfaced with the fire alarm system, the smoke curtain deploys automatically at the early stage of a fire, rapidly forming a smoke compartment to limit smoke spread.

2. Concealed Installation with Architectural Aesthetics
   When not activated, the curtain is fully concealed within the ceiling or architectural finishes, preserving usable space and visual appearance.

3. Stable and Reliable Smoke Containment Performance
   Manufactured from high-temperature-resistant and fire-rated materials, the curtain maintains effective smoke containment under fire and smoke exposure.

4. Coordination with Smoke Exhaust Systems
   Designed to operate in conjunction with mechanical smoke exhaust or natural smoke ventilation systems, improving overall smoke control efficiency and evacuation conditions.

5. Adaptable to Various Building Configurations
   Flexible layout options allow adaptation to large-volume spaces, irregular geometries, and complex architectural structures based on smoke compartmentation requirements.

3. How it works

1. Under normal conditions, the smoke curtain is retracted and stored within its housing, remaining in standby mode.

2. When a fire occurs, the fire alarm control system issues an activation signal.

3. The drive mechanism is energized, and the smoke curtain deploys automatically by motorized operation or gravity descent.

4. The curtain stops at the preset elevation, forming an effective smoke barrier and smoke compartment.

5. After the fire event or upon system reset, the curtain can be restored to its original retracted position manually or automatically.
