Pyran® Platinum F
Fire- and Safety-Rated Glass-Ceramic
Labeling
After cutting, each
lite of PYRAN® Platinum F fire- and safety-rated
glassceramic
shall be permanently labeled according to code
requirements
with product and manufacturer’s name, mark from
the authorized testing
agency, fire rating, etc.
Storage & Handling
PYRAN® Platinum F fire- and safety-rated glass-ceramic should
be
handled with care during transportation, storage,
inspection, and installation.
It should be stored in dry conditions only and
needs to be stacked
upright or at a slight angle. In addition, the
panels must be separated by
an appropriate material, such as acid-free tissue
paper, and the bottom
edge must be supported along its entire
length.
Installation
PYRAN® Platinum F shall only be installed into fire-rated frame and
window
assemblies carrying the same rating. Each panel
should be inspected
carefully before installation, and any pieces
with visible edge or surface
damage should be sorted out. All glazing
components and the stop
height must be chosen according to the
PYRAN® Platinum F UL classification.
The panel must be placed on calcium silicate or
hardwood setting
blocks and glazed using
PYRAN® Platinum F classified glazing tape,
such
as closed cell PVC, Fiberfrax tape or Pemko
FG3000S90. The installation
of the framed unit must comply with the frame
supplier’s instructions.
PYRAN® Platinum F is a specially developed glass-ceramic, that fulfills
the
fire and safety protection rating requirements.
The production process
may create certain optical imperfections, such as
bubbles or knots. Since
these do not generally impair the transparency or
the technical performance
of the glass-ceramic, they do not represent cause
for rejection or replacement.
Maintenance and Care
To maintain the aesthetics, it is important to keep the panel
clean. A soft,
clean, non-abrasive cloth and a mild soap, detergent, or
non-abrasive
window cleaning solution is suitable for cleaning. After
cleaning rinse immediately
with clean water and remove any excess water from the
panel
surface. Also, do not allow any metal or hard parts of the
cleaning equipment
to come in contact with the panel surface.
