 Smoke & heat vent opening
The smoke and heat vent opening is an effective geometrical, aerodynamic opening surface. It consists in practice of an electrically motor operated window, flap or dome. When a fire occurs, these openings are activated in order to release smoke and heat. |

 Automatic detector
Automatic detectors enable the rapid and reliable recognition of conflagration gases and/or temperature development, according to the type of detector used. Two main types of function are currently in use: optical (scattered light principle) and temperature control. |

 External fire alarm system
On the one hand, the signal from external fir alarm systems can be used to open certain smoke and heat vent units, while, on the other hand, it is possible to send a signal to an external fire alarm system after triggering, in order to alert fire service or rescue crews. |

 Breakglass unit
Breakglass units (manual alarm switch or push burtton), are used for manual triggering in emergencies and are required in addition to automatic detectors. |

|
|
Electronic control unit
The central element is the elctronic control unit, which processes the incoming signals, sets priorities and issues commands for the opening of smoke and heat ventilation openings. |
| |
|
|
 Wind & rain sensor
Arising wind or rain recognized and controlled via the control unit eg. the retraction of electrically motor-driven sunblinds, closing or windows or vebtilation openings. |
| |
|
|
 Ventilation button
Individual, natural room air conditions are achieved via the opening and closing of electrically motor-driven ventilation units. |
| |
|
|
Timer & Temperature sensor
Convenient ventilation is achieved by automatic operation of ventilation openings or windows via opening or closing times, which can be set by users or by the selection of a constant room temperature. |
| |
|
|
 Building management system
Primary control of smoke and heat vent functions, or control or natural ventilation via an external command post. |
