Astroflame Socket Box Covers

Single and double available

In buildings where fire regulations are in place, it is crucial to maintain the fire integrity of walls even when they are penetrated for electrical installations. When a hole is created in a wall to accommodate a recessed switch or socket box, it can compromise the wall’s fire resistance. The Astroflame Socket Box Cover addresses this issue by providing effective fire protection for these penetrations.

Construction and Features:

Material Composition: The Astroflame Socket Box Covers are crafted from high-quality, halogen-free, low-smoke intumescent mineral fiber material. This ensures that the cover does not contribute to toxic smoke or harmful emissions in the event of a fire, aligning with safety and environmental standards.
Intumescent Technology: The intumescent material used in these covers expands when exposed to high temperatures. This expansion forms a protective barrier that seals the gap around the socket box, preventing the passage of fire and smoke through the penetration. This critical function helps to restore and maintain the fire performance of the partition wall.
Fire Performance Restoration: Designed specifically for use with steel or plastic electrical socket back boxes, the Astroflame Socket Box Cover reinstates the fire-resistance of partition (stud) wall constructions. It effectively plugs the opening created by the socket box, ensuring that the wall maintains its intended fire-rating and protective qualities.
Application: Ideal for use in a variety of settings where fire-rated walls are required, including commercial buildings, residential properties, and industrial facilities. These covers are essential for any installation that involves penetrating fire-rated walls with electrical sockets, ensuring compliance with fire safety regulations.
Installation: The covers are designed for easy installation around existing socket boxes. They fit securely and provide a seamless seal that integrates with the wall, offering an effective solution for maintaining fire integrity without compromising on aesthetics or functionality.

Benefits:

Enhanced Fire Safety: Provides a crucial barrier against the spread of fire and smoke through electrical socket penetrations, helping to protect building occupants and property.
Low Smoke Emission: Made from halogen-free materials, the cover minimizes smoke production, reducing the risk of toxic smoke inhalation in the event of a fire.
Compliance: Helps meet fire safety regulations and standards by ensuring that penetrations in fire-rated walls do not compromise their fire resistance.
Durability: The use of high-quality, intumescent mineral fiber material ensures long-lasting performance and reliable fire protection.

Applications:

Fire-Rated Partition Walls: Ideal for walls where electrical sockets are installed, maintaining the fire integrity of the wall.
Commercial and Residential Buildings: Suitable for use in various types of buildings to ensure compliance with fire safety regulations.
Industrial Facilities: Provides effective fire protection in environments with stringent fire safety requirements.

The Astroflame Socket Box Cover is a vital component in maintaining the safety and fire performance of building structures, offering reliable protection and peace of mind in fire-rated wall applications.
