Con PLC fire protection duct
Planning an installation
6 Planning an installation
To ensure the functionality of the fire protection duct, installations and
installation locations must fulfil technical and structural requirements.
6 1
Structural conditions
If there are uncertainties about the load capacity of walls and ceilings,
then a structural engineer must be consulted.
– Walls must be made of concrete, reinforced concrete or masonry (e.g.
calcareous sandstone, porous calcareous sandstone, full brick) with a
minimum thickness of 10 cm.
– Ceilings must be made of concrete, reinforced concrete or porous
concrete with a minimum thickness of 15 cm.
– Lightweight walls/partitions and wooden ceilings, as well as steel
structures and trapezoidal roofs, are not suitable for the mounting of
fire protection ducts.
– Walls and ceilings serving as a mounting surface must have at least
the same fire resistance length as the mounted fire protection duct.
– Mounting surfaces must be flat to avoid crack formation in the fire
protection ducts during mounting.
– If various electrical voltage levels are to be separated in a fire pro-
tection duct, the spacing of the various electrical voltage levels must
be at least 10 mm. Choose a fire protection duct with the appropriate
width/height and use separating clamps or brackets.

Approved fastening materials
Installed fastening materials must be fire protection-tested and certified:
– for direct wall/ceiling mounting, e.g. OBO bolt ties, type MMS-plus P
7.5x80, or similar with a rounded head, to avoid damage to the cables.
– for mounting on support systems, select the fastening material ac-
cording to the substrate and the requirements of the fire protection
duct to be fulfilled.
