A range that has evolved ashave changes in the construction and functional performance combinewith modern aesthetics and sustainable to these features are patented systemsdesigned to augment other measures that reducerisk and aid compliance with the RegulatoryReform (Fire Safety) resistance performance: EI 120-U/UHigh performance stainless steel or copper alloy gratingsSelecta provides choice: from high performance stainless steel designs through traditional copper alloy to lowcost economy options.

6 Our sophisticated manufacturing techniques enable off-the-shelf options without bodyAccessories such as sealed rodding eyes can beused in stand alone or with the gully as waterproofing systemsIdeal for concrete, tile and natural stone,Selecta also integrates with flexible sheetflooring as well as the most recent tankingmaterials for wetrooms.

8 The Regulatory Reform (FireSafety Order) 20051aims to reduce both hazardand risk, where risk is the likelihood andconsequence of Building Regulations2incorporate designguidance where, given certain Building types,compartmentation is used to reduce firepropagation. The efficacy of such schemes isdependent on both integrity and insulation. In the case of fire, Integrity prevents the passage offlame and hot gas from the exposed to unexposedside, whereas insulation restricts temperature risebelow specified levels3. Preserving the integrity andinsulation performance of a separating element isproblematic if gullies are used for other thanground floor Drainage .

9 In effect, they present an'open ended' pipe penetration when the water trapis depleted and connecting pipework has beendestroyed. This worst case scenario is assumed inthe test protocol followed by devices, such as gullies, are tested inaccordance with BS EN 13664, and classified inaccordance with BS EN 135015(see references on page 7).With a Drainage gully, the underside is consideredmore critical as fire spread is more likely from lowerfloors. Attention must therefore be paid to thedesign of the gully body and its installation. Whilst measurements are taken at the grating viathermocouples, these upper parts of the system do not determine system performance.

10 The gully body is cast iron and is sited within athermally insulating pre-formed concrete jacket toprovide effective fire containment and limitthermal transmittance. protection is augmented byan intumescent cartridge that sits in the outletspigot. This material expands at approximately150 C, closing off the system in combination, water trap depletion isdramatically reduced and integrity and insulationmaintained. An additional, though unmeasuredbenefit, is the reduced passage of smoke. 7 ACO Selecta - Floor DrainageADVANCED FLOOR Drainage SYSTEMSRisk proportionatemeasuresThe Publicly Available Specification - PAS 796comments on 'risk-proportionate' fire this context unnecessary expenditure isprecluded, but where appropriate, furtherprotection can be included if ACO Selecta system is designed to offeranother tool for the specifier to incorporate intotheir design where appropriate.
