Why use EI45 fireproof duct?

WHY USE EI45 FIREPROOF DUCTS – SAFE SOLUTIONS FOR INDUSTRIAL VENTILATION SYSTEMS?

In the field of construction and fire protection, EI45 fire-resistant duct system is becoming increasingly important and indispensable for industrial, commercial and civil works. The following article will explain in detail why choosing EI45 fire-resistant duct is a strategic decision to protect life and property.

  1. Concept of EI45 Fireproof Duct

The term EI in fire-resistant ductwork has an important meaning. Specifically:

  • E (Integrity): Ensures the integrity of the ductwork, preventing the spread of fire
  • I (Insulation): Ability to insulate, limit the transmission of outside temperature

EI45 ductwork means that the ductwork system can withstand a fire for 45 minutes, keeping its structure intact and not allowing outside temperatures to penetrate.

  1. The Importance of Fireproof Ducts

Ventilation systems are more than just air circulation. In the event of a fire, they play a key role:

  • Prevent the spread of smoke between areas
  • Control the direction of smoke and heat movement
  • Support evacuation and fire fighting
  • Protect escape routes
  1. Advantages of EI45 Fireproof Duct

Compared with conventional air ducts, EI45 offers many benefits:

  • High durability under fire conditions
  • Minimize damage to people and property
  • Meet strict fire safety standards
  • Increase critical escape time
  1. Priority Areas for EI45 Duct Installation
  • Shopping mall
  • Factory
  • Hospital
  • School
  • High-rise office building
  • Dangerous goods storage area

  1. Technical Standards

According to QCVN06:2020, fireproof air ducts must:

  • Tested according to ISO 6944:1985
  • Ensure structural stability
  • Maintain integrity
  • Has optimal insulation capacity
  1. Fireproof Duct Classification
  • Type A: Protection against fire from outside
  • Type B: Fire protection inside the pipe
  1. Important Factors When Choosing
  • Manufacturing materials
  • Pipe wall thickness
  • Heat resistance
  • Standard certification
  1. Investment Costs and Long-Term Benefits

Although the initial cost may be higher, EI45 fire rated ductwork offers:

  • Risk Reduction
  • Lower insurance
  • Long service life
  • Maximum safety for humans

Conclude

EI45 fire-resistant ductwork is no longer an option, but a mandatory requirement in modern constructions. Investing in this system is to protect life, property and minimize risks in emergency situations.
