How does the Pressure Differential System protect exit routes from smoke? Step-by-step activation
In this eye-opening video, we witness the crucial role of pressurisation systems in ensuring the safe evacuation of occupants during a fire emergency. Join Radek and Iza as they take you inside the SMAY HQ, where a full pressure differential system is installed. They conduct a live smoke test to demonstrate its effectiveness in a stairwell. Observe how the pressurisation units activate within seconds, preventing smoke inflow and enabling a safe evacuation.
SMAY’s pressurisation system is built on innovative iSWAY units. Explore its key features, including its predictive algorithm, wide operating range, autotest capabilities, anti-freeze functionality, braking resistor, and adjustable airflow.
