SR EN 1364-5:2026

This document specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of air transfer grilles (ATG). It is applicable to air transfer grilles intended for installation in building components (typically walls, floors or ceilings). The orientation of the installation of the air transfer grille can be vertical or horizontal. The closing mechanism of the air transfer grille can come from expansion of material and/or from any mechanical or electrical closing device. This document is applicable to fire resistant or fire resistant and smoke control air transfer grilles. An additional test configuration is valid for fire resistant or fire resistant and smoke control air transfer grilles in applications where flame impingement is a risk during open state from start of fire (see Annex A). This document evaluates the behaviour of the air transfer grille when exposed to the heating curve described in EN 1363 1 and the standard pressure described in EN 1363 1. It is not the intention of this test to provide quantitative information on the rate of leakage of smoke and/or hot gases or on the transmi
