Fire protection - Import export

Spoiler for the M5000 tram in Manchester, UK Bombardier designed the M5000 tram as a highfloor tram specially for use in Manchester. The spoiler consists of a solid stainless steel frame with a gluedon GRP profile. The profile was milled on modern CNC machines at TC, glued to the frame, primed and painted with a special 2KPUR metallic paint. It is manufactured in different lengths and designs. It has fire protection in accordance with BS 6853. For new projects, we meet fire protection requirements in accordance with EN 45545.

Roof panels for the Flexity tram in Palermo, Italy What looks like a threedimensional, singlecast component on the sides of trams from the Flexity range from Bombardier, consists of pultruded GRP elements with gluedon end caps, which have been milled, glued, primed and painted. Optionally, the 656 mm wide roof panel can also be manufactured with a gluedon bracket. It has fire protection in accordance with NF F 16101 and DIN 5510. For new projects, we also meet fire protection requirements in accordance with EN 45545.

Airflow system for the Desiro ML/ÖBB, Austria Having developed and manufactured the airflow system for the Desiro ML Mittelrheinbahn and the Desiro ML Brussels, TC is now also producing the airflow system for the Desiro ÖBB. The respective systems are based on pultruded profiles made of fibre glassreinforced plastic. For the air ducting system, the fire protection properties of the GRP profiles were set in such a way as to meet the requirements in accordance with EN 45545.

A real eyecatcher - the carriers shoot through the fully transparent tubes and bends in full view. Especially in trade fair stand construction, polymethyl methacrylate offers vast scope for elegant design. Because it‘s halogen-free, PMMA is not only good-looking but also meets the highest fire protection requirements.
