Introduction
| 159
Environmental
• Aluminium is naturally
found combined in over
270 different minerals, the
chief source of which is
bauxite ore.
• Its light weight means less
strain on supporting
structures, easier handling
and reduced transport
costs.
Recycling
and sustainability
• 100% recyclable material.
• Can be recycled many times
without loss of quality.
• Recycling facilities are well
established.
EMI protection
(Electromagnetic interference)
• First class EMI screening
performance especially
at higher frequencies.
Fire performance
• Aluminium systems specified
with polycarbonate fittings
meet accepted requirements
for LSOH.
• Withstands high
temperatures with a
melting point of 655°C
(1211°F).
• Polycarbonate fittings are
fire rated to UL94V0.
• ABS fittings are fire rated to
UL94V0.
