A firestop collar for sealing of openings, especially of line penetrations, that pass through walls or ceilings, has a frame and a block of optionally intumescent material disposed therein, and is characterized in that the frame is of modular construction.

The presently claimed invention relates to a fire barrier, a method for installing the same, an expansion joint system and a fire barrier assembly.

A firestopping apparatus including a housing defined by first and second housing members. Each housing member includes a width direction wall panel and a height direction wall panel. The width direction wall panel of the first housing member is configured to connect with the height direction wall panel of the second housing member and the width direction wall panel of the second housing member is configured to connect with the height direction wall panel of the first housing member to define an assembled housing with a through passage. Intumescent material is positioned along an inner surface of each wall panel. A compressible foam is positioned within the intumescent material and substantially closes off the through passage.

A fire seal includes a bulk material and a phase-changing material supported by the bulk material. The bulk material of the fire seal is fire resistant.

A system for storing a hazardous product including a housing unit defining a product opening and a product door coupled to the housing unit adjacent to the product opening, wherein the product door is configured to form a seal with the housing unit about the product opening in response to a thermal event.

A containment system for a hazardous product includes a housing unit for storing the hazardous product. The housing unit includes sensors disposed throughout for detecting a thermal event. The system further includes an active fire suppression system configured to suppress the thermal event based on thermal event information received from the sensors. The system also includes a controller for processing signals from the sensors and activating the active fire suppression system, such as providing fire suppressants locally and/or globally or active venting. The system further includes a passive fire suppression system configured to suppress the thermal event using passive suppression without requiring activation from the controller, such as by coating surfaces of the system or using temperature sensitive venting or suppressant provision. The system may further include a training system to mimic the thermal event.

A system for storing a hazardous product including a housing unit having an interior volume and a door coupled to the housing unit configured to provide access to the interior volume. The system includes an electrical connection configured to transmit electricity into or out of the interior volume. The system further includes a ventilation system for directing gasses and heat produced during a thermal event out of the interior volume.

There is provided a fire collar comprising a casing defining a service conduit passage therethrough, the casing having an activation side and an installation side, wherein the casing defines an activation side located activation chamber. The fire collar has an opposing pair of shutters located within the activation chamber defining operative leading edges. In use, the shutters are configurable in a non-activated configuration wherein the leading edges are spaced apart so as to make allowance for the service conduit therebetween and when the fire collar is exposed to heat on the activation side in use, the shutters transition to an activated configuration wherein the respective leading edges of the shutters close in the passage.

A firestop collar for sealing of openings, especially of line penetrations, that pass-through walls or ceilings, has a frame and a block of optionally intumescent material disposed therein, and is characterized in that an intumescent inlay is disposed between the block and the frame.

A freight container (1) has a frame to which a bottom (2), a roof (3), and sides (5-7) are attached, one side having a door opening closeable by a folding door (12) made of flexible, fire resistant material. The door (12) is supported from runners (13) moveable along a rail (14) combined with a top member (9) of a frame delimiting the door opening. A gap (15) is formed between the top frame member (9) and the top of the door (12) in its closed condition. The top member (9) is provided with a depending support (16) having a surface facing the inside of the door (12) and having attached thereto a strip of heat intumescent material (20). A flow passage (18) is formed between the strip (20) and the door (12) for gasses attempting to escape from the container through the gap (15) in a fire inside the container. The heat intumescent material (20) is arranged to swell and close the flow passage (18) when subjected to hot gasses from the fire inside the container.
