Datasheet
A wide range of applications - AXS 140 is installed onto roofs providing high level smoke control extract as well as roof access. Its polycarbonate flap option allows the entry of natural daylight.
Weather resistant - The sealing system consists of EPDM profiles which keep air leakage down to a minimum.
Durable – The AXS 140 flap is manufactured from tough, corrosion resistant aluminium with aluminium hinges and stainless steel pivots. It is manufactured under the ISO 9001 quality standard.
Large opening angle – AXS 140 opens to 140⁰ which permits it to meet the requirements of EN 12101-2 for this kind of product.
Certified performance - AXS 140 has been tested and certified to EN 12101-2: 2003 in accredited third party test laboratories and is CE and UKCA marked.
High thermal performance – Thermal performance varies with size and options, ranging from 1.3 to 2.4 W/m²K.
High acoustic performance – A sound reduction of up to 29 dB (R’w) may be achieved.
Low silhouette - No ugly and inconvenient wind deflectors are needed.
