Fire prevention elevator solutions meet fire protection standards
Fire prevention and insulation elevator solutions are one of the typical methods on the market that are being chosen by many businesses. If you are learning about this solution and want to know more about the criteria and assessments from experts, don’t miss the interesting information shared below.
Why should you use fire prevention and heat insulation elevator solutions?
In daily reality, residents living in apartment buildings are familiar with the fire protection message that “do not use the elevator in case of fire”. Because with conventional elevator systems, when there is a fire problem they will stop working immediately. This leads to emergency exits being overloaded every time residents evacuate from a fire.
Many times, the direct consequences from fire and smoke have not had time to impact, but the jostling, pushing and trampling of residents causes a lot of damage. Therefore, to solve this problem, a modern and effective fireproof solution has been proposed. That is the fire prevention elevator solution according to Vietnam fire prevention standards.
This type of ladder is designed using fireproof, heat insulating and anti-sharp materials. They ensure that firefighting forces can operate and operate promptly to rescue residents and passengers in the event of a fire.
At the same time, fire-resistant elevators also have the function of protecting the elevator system and minimizing damage caused by fire. Because the elevator system needs to invest a lot of money when installed.
These elevators have fire doors that are normally closed to prevent fire from burning or entering the insulated elevator escape room. At the same time, the elevator system is also calculated and designed to ensure national standards such as TCVN 6396-72:2010.

Elevator solutions to prevent fires
What criteria are required for a standard fire prevention and insulation elevator solution?
NỘI DUNG BÀI VIẾT
There is a fireproof buffer room
Standard fire-proof and heat-insulated elevators must be located in the elevator shaft and have a fire-proof buffer room. This room must be designed with a pressure booster system before entering the elevator on each floor.
The fire prevention buffer room of the elevator should be arranged together with the fire prevention buffer room of the emergency staircase. This way we can ensure that people with poor health who escape from the accident can wait for the firefighting force to rescue them in this fire prevention buffer room.
The buffer room must have an area not less than 4m². In the case of combining hallways of smoke-free stairwells, the buffer room area must be greater than 6m².
Fire resistance limits of fire-prevention and heat-insulating elevators
Standard fire-proof and heat-insulating elevator solutions require that the elevator’s covering structure must be made from fire-resistant and heat-insulating materials. The separating structure of the buffer room must be made of fire partitions ensuring EI45 limit and fire doors ensuring EI60, and the door must have a sealing gasket to not transmit smoke inside the elevator chamber.
Elevators must be protected in separate elevator shafts
Do not store insulated, fire-resistant elevators with other types of elevators in the same elevator shaft. Each such elevator well must have no more than 3 fire-fighting, fire-preventing, and heat-insulating elevators. At the same time, the structure surrounding the elevator well must have a fire resistance limit of EI120 standards or higher.
Fire-proof and heat-insulated elevator doors must be horizontal push doors that open automatically
That means the cabin door and elevator well must ensure the ability to work when there is smoke or fire. They must have a fire resistance limit not less than EI30.
For projects in functional groups F1.2, F4.3 and mixed-use buildings. That is, for buildings with fire protection heights from over 50m to 150m, the fire resistance limit of elevator wells for fire prevention and insulation must reach REI 150 for houses from 50-100m and REI 180 for houses with heights of 100m – 150m.
