BAK-250 Fire protection unit

Product catalog summary
Technical Document Summary: Fire Protection Unit BAK-250
Usability Certificates:
The BAK-250 fire protection unit has a general building supervisory approval (abZ) with classification K90-U, tested according to DIN 4102-2 and DIN 4102-6 standards.
Performance Data:
Designed for installation in fire-resistant suspended ceilings (F90-A), it can connect to a smoke trigger device with abZ, such as the SCHAKO smoke detection system RMS, using a suitable actuator unit.
Special Features:
Includes two thermal trigger devices (72°C) for independent operation based on temperature changes inside or outside the ventilation ducts. Supports screw mounting for air diffusers.
Description:
The BAK-250 is a fire protection unit for sealing ventilation duct openings in fire-resistant ceilings, ensuring a 90-minute fire resistance. Not suitable for use in commercial kitchen return air ducts or environments with heavy soiling, extreme humidity, or chemical contamination.
Ventilation Fittings:
Only non-flammable materials like sheet steel or aluminum can be used for air diffusers, which are mounted via screw mounting (-SM). The unit increases the sound volume of air diffusers by +4 dB(a).
Accessories:
Optional accessories include electric spring return actuators (BFG24-TN-ST SO or BFG230-TN SO) and a limit switch ES-1A. These require inspection openings for regular functional tests.
Installation Details:
Connected to solid ceilings via suspensions, with air diffusers fastened to the connection frame. Installation requires consideration of tension rod dimensions based on load calculations.
Functional Test:
Functional tests are required before and after installation, and every six months thereafter. If two consecutive tests show no defects, annual checks are sufficient.
Construction:
Constructed from galvanized sheet steel, with a metal-cased silicate structural panel for the shut-off damper. Air diffusers are painted sheet steel with aluminum blades.
Models and Dimensions:
Available in various sizes, the unit includes a housing, shut-off damper, and trigger devices. The fusible link triggers the damper closure at temperatures above 72°C.
Order Code:
Specifies the type, air diffuser, nominal size, spigot diameter, trigger temperature, actuator type, and accessories.
Overview:
The document provides technical specifications and ordering details for the BAK-250 fire protection unit and associated ceiling diffusers. It includes information on specifications, order codes, and maintenance procedures.
Specifications:
The BAK-250 is a fire protection unit with a resistance class of K90-U, suitable for installation in fire-resistant suspended ceilings. It features a metal-cased shut-off damper triggered by a thermal device at 72°C. The unit can be adapted to different ceiling strengths and includes visible screw mounting for the air diffuser.
Order Codes:
Outlines order codes for various components, including air diffusers and actuators. Key parameters include nominal size, spigot diameter, trigger temperature, actuator type, and accessories.
Procedures:
Maintenance involves functional checks and cleaning every six months, with annual checks if no defects are found. Details steps for visual inspection, checking the shut-off damper housing, seals, and trigger devices. Provides instructions for replacing components like the temperature fuse.
Recommendations:
Personal protective equipment (PPE) is recommended during functional tests to prevent injuries. Advises including functional tests in maintenance agreements for ventilation systems.
Service and Maintenance:
Emphasizes the importance of regular functional tests and outlines procedures for checking and maintaining the shut-off devices. Includes a sample functional test protocol for documentation purposes.
Contact Information:
SCHAKO's contact details and foreign branch offices are listed for further assistance.
Figures and Tables:
Contains several figures and tables illustrating various aspects of the BAK-250, including dimensions, views, trigger devices, installation instructions, circuit diagrams, blade positions, air throw patterns, and sectional views. Tables include available sizes and weight with tension rod dimensioning.
Revisions and Versions:
The document is marked as version 2019-10-01, indicating the latest update or revision date.

Fire protection unit BAK-250 Technical documentation Description CONNECTION OF VENTILATION DUCTS The fire protection unit type BAK-250 must only be connected to non-flammable ventilation ducts. The local regulations or national standards on ventilation systems (in Germany e.g. M-LüAR, in the locally applicable version) apply. No inadmissible forces may affect the fire protection unit and suspended ceiling especially in case of fire and impair their fire resistance time. The required expansion joints (flexible spigots) must be designed as flammable, elastic spigots made of at least standard inflammable...
