EMERGENCY AND ESCAPE ROUTES ACCORDING TO DIN EN 179

Here are doors in buildings where the door locks are assumed to be known, e.g., doors in office buildings without public traffic, student dormitories, factories, laboratories, power plants, nursing homes.

When a smaller number of people are involved, panic usually does not occur in hazardous situations. This is generally the case in office buildings, for example. At these doors, normal fittings such as handles and push plates are possible. Through information, training, etc., people can be guided to react rationally in threatening situations and overcome their fear. Knowing the escape options leads to appropriate reactions, from which clear decisions emerge: Which way to choose? Through which door? How to open it?


POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS
  • Student dormitories
  • Power plants
  • Laboratories
  • Nursing homes
  • Small factories
  • Hospital rooms
  • Small offices
  • Small hotels
KEY POINTS AT A GLANCE
  • The user knows the function of the lock or has been instructed.
  • No panic situation can arise.
  • The max. release force is 70 N for handles or 150 N when using a push plate.
  • The products used at the emergency exit are tested together (e.g., by MPA Dortmund).

GfS Exit Control 179/1125 Basic RAL 6029
GFS Exit Control The GfS Exit Control 179/1125 secures the emergency exit and allows it to be opened with just one single motion. In the locked position, the GfS Exit Control 179/1125 secures the door handle; the door can be accessed in an emergency with a single opening movement. By pressing down the door handle, the GfS Exit Control 179/1125 moves vertically downwards and frees the handle. At the same time, a continuous signal sounds. The continuous alarm can only be deactivated with the help of a key, and the door guard can be reset to its original position. For continuous passage operation, the permanent release of the system is possible with the device key. The individual passage of the door can also be carried out without triggering an alarm using the key via the change function of the door lock. This means: The door can be opened with just one motion in case of danger, but the alarm signal alerts to unauthorized use. The threshold under the door handle is active.In an emergency, the door can be openedwith one motion. When pressing down the door handle,the Exit Control 179/1125 automatically moves down.

As soon as the door handle presses down the pre-alarm,an alarm is triggered. Releasing the handlesilences the alarm again. However, if the userpresses the handle all the way down, itirreversibly triggers the main alarm and thedoor guard releases the handle. The basic functions of the EH-RadioDoor Guard are the same as already described.It is used when the signal needs to be forwarded to an externalalarm system, whether at theporter, nurse, or janitor's office.
