Operation • Covers automatically spring open to approximately 90 degrees in the event of fire, actuated by the parting of a single UL-listed 165°F fusible link, and automatically lock fully open. • Covers are of double-leaf construction, with each leaf equipped with sufficient torsion spring operators to open against a 10 psf snow or wind load. • Units are equipped with hydraulic shock absorbers to control cover opening speed and prevent over-travel. • Covers will not open when subjected to uplift pressure up to 30 psf. • Vent design allows covers to be released manually from inside or outside without disturbing the fusible link assembly. • Covers latch automatically and manual release mechanism resets automatically by closing covers. |
