DRG MOTOR – SMOKE EXTRACTION ELECTRIC MOTORS

Importance of Smoke Extraction Motors
During a fire, dense smoke, hot gases, and toxic particles pose the greatest risk to both human safety and the structural integrity of the building.
Smoke Extraction systems quickly remove these gases from the environment, facilitating evacuation and supporting fire control efforts.

At the heart of these systems are smoke extraction motors, which differ from standard electric motors in that they:

  • Can operate at 300°C – 500°C,

  • Do not shut down during fire,

  • Are highly thermally insulated and protected.

The DRG MOTOR Smoke Extraction Series is a certified power source that never stops, even during a fire.
