Details
Part of the Fire Shield family of fire rated housings. Use with our 6" trims. Works with halogen or incandescent bulbs.
Designed for new construction installations and suitable for use in insulation covered or non-insulation covered ceilings.
Provided with gasket to prevent airflow from heated or air conditioned spaces. Meets or exceeds all national air flow requirements.
FIRE SHIELD Housings are designed to meet today’s One-Hour (UL L500 & P500) or Two-Hour (UL L505) Fire-Rated IC & Non-IC Codes for high-rise Condominiums, Apartment Buildings, Multi-Family Residences, Hotels, Hospitalities, Assisted Living Homes, Hospitals, Health Care and many more applications.- FIRE PROTECTION PERFORMANCE
-
- The luminaire ships assembled with the fire protection material already attached in their working positions
- As the fire intensifies, a protection disk seals off the bottom opening of the housing and stops the fire from passing through the fixture
- The inner assembly reacts strongly to high temperatures (428°F/220°C and above) and swells to a solid dense mass filling the entire luminaire cavity
- Prevents flames and smoke from passing through the light fixture and spreading throughout floor above
- Fire Shield recessed lighting luminaire eliminates the use of subcontractors to build additional boxes around a luminaire to achieve a 1-hour or 2-hour fire rating
- The Fire Shield family of Lighting Luminaires protect the floors above by preventing heat and flames from passing into the ceiling void
- Easier and faster to install than custom-built fireboxes and housings that require hats or additional fire-rated materials
- Conforms to ASTM STD 119
- AIR-SHUT ASTM E283
-
- Gasket to prevent air flow from heated or air conditioned spaces.
