Blazetrap® Rapid Outlet Box System (ROBS) is a groundbreaking Passive Fire Protection product, recently winning the UK Construction Excellence National Award for Innovation.
Advanced Fire Protection: Many current electrical back boxes are designed only for electrical connections with little fire protection. The Blazetrap® Single ROBS 1 addresses this with a Stainless Steel Electrical Back Box featuring a unique injection-moulded Intumescent insert (ROBS Intumescent System) made from high-quality exfoliated graphite.
Innovative Technology: The ROBS Intumescent System reacts when exposed to fire, forming a solid char around cables, thus insulating the substrate, thereby starving the fire of essential elements for combustion and preventing the passage of fire from one compartment to another. This technology is patented and trademarked.
Complete System: No separate box outers needed, eliminating the risk of incorrect sizes, depths, and materials.
Ease of Installation: Integrated pushout fixing tabs, quick installation of the ROBS intumescent System, no sealants or supporting brackets needed, one size, Blazetrap® ROBS fits all cavity wall depths.
Cost Efficiency: Reduces installation costs, requires zero maintenance, and offers a longer product lifespan.
Traceability: Full product traceability from manufacture to end user and back again.
Liability Reduction: The Blazetrap® Rapid Outlet Box System (ROBS 1) significantly reduces liability risks associated with electrical installations as well as different trade use installations. Unlike alternative products on the market, such as Putty pads, which require separate purchases from different suppliers and may not be fire-rated or tested together, Blazetrap® offers a complete, tested system. This comprehensive solution ensures enhanced fire protection and compliance with safety standards, providing peace of mind for specifiers, design engineers, architects, installation contractors, main contractors, development owners, and residents. The liability is effectively omitted, eliminating risks associated with incomplete or untested systems.
Experience the future of Passive Fire Protection with Blazetrap® ROBS. Ensure safety and compliance with this cutting-edge solution.
