KA2-EU
Technical purpose of product or process Rectangular fire damper for use in extract air and exhaust air ducts of commercial kitchens. For the isolation of duct penetrations between fire compartments, available in 429 sizes. For more information see: www.trox.de Square or rectangular fire dampers for the isolation of extract air or exhaust air duct penetrations in commercial kitchens. With flanges for installation in horizontal or vertical ducts. Thermal release mechanism 72 °C. For mortar-based installation into solid walls and ceiling slabs, and into lightweight partition walls and fire walls with metal support structure and cladding on both sides. The louvre is replaceable, the installation depends on the air flow direction. This EPD includes the environmental data of the product series KA2-EU. The following represents a representative dataset of the variant (KA2-EU/DE/1200x500x680/Z43).

General comment on data set Data quality: Specific data for the product composition are provided by the manufacturer. The data represent the production of the declared product and were collected for EPD development in the year of study. Background data is based on EPDs according to EN 15804 and different LCA databases. The data quality of the raw materials in A1 is presented in the table below. Allocation: The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN 15804. Energy, water and waste production in-house is allocated equally among all products through mass allocation. Effects of primary production of recycled materials is allocated to the main product in which the material was used. The recycling process and transportation of the material is allocated to this analysis. Cut-off criteria: All major raw materials and all the essential energy is included. The production processes for raw materials and energy flows with very small amounts (less than 1%) are not included. These cut-off criteria do not apply for hazardous materials and substances.

1This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
