Pyran® Platinum Filmed

Pyran® Platinum products are fire-rated glass-ceramics that prevent the spread of fire, hot gases and smoke. Pyran Platinum F has a surface applied safety film and is intended for use in safety-rated locations such as door lites, transoms or sidelites, and windows with fire-rating requirements up to 90 minutes and up to 180 minutes in doors. It is the world’s first and only floated glass ceramic developed specifically for architectural applications.

FIRE-ENDURANCE TEST

The Fire Endurance test subjects a full-size window or door assembly to a controlled time-temperature profile in a furnace. The test duration is 20 minutes up to three hours, depending on the desired rating, with temperatures reaching nearly 2000 °F in three hours. The window assembly including frame, glazing and components must not allow flames on the non-fire side, and the glazing must survive the test without breaking or cracking.

HOSE-STREAM TEST

Immediately following the Fire Endurance test, the fire-exposed side of the test assembly is subject to impact from water blast in a prescribed pattern for duration appropriate to the specimen size. The glazing must remain intact in the frame.

IMPACT TEST

In installations where accidental human impact could occur, fire-rated glazing must also withstand impact tests.

The impact test uses a 100-lb weight swung from a pendulum at 48-inch drop height. The glazing must remain intact with no significant openings.
