Blast Protection & Enhancements
There are four tiers of blast protection offered by the Slimline. Each level has been tested to at least 100kg of TNT at 15 meters and offer a selection of blast protection enhancements. All figures shown are for a Category III response.
Basic Level of Blast Protection:
System Configuration | Load Per Bolt kN / LBS | Peak Pressure KPa / PSI |
3-Point Outward Opening | 24.4 / 5485 | 70 / 10.2 |
5-Point Outward Opening | 24.4 / 5485 | 114 / 16.5 |
3-Point Inward Opening | 24.4 / 5485 | 42 / 6.1 |
5-Point Inward Opening | 24.4 / 5485 | 68 / 9.8 |
Peak pressure values are a guide based on static load calculations on a particular door construction. Calculations should be done for specific door sizes and constructions.
Enhanced Level of Blast Protection:
System Configuration | Load Per Bolt kN / LBS | Peak Pressure KPa / PSI |
3-Point Outward Opening | 35.3 / 7935 | 102 / 14.8 |
5-Point Outward Opening | 35.3 / 7935 | 166 / 24.1 |
3-Point Inward Opening | 35.3 / 7935 | 61 / 8.8 |
5-Point Inward Opening | 35.3 / 7935 | 99 / 14.4 |
Peak pressure values are a guide based on static load calculations on a particular door construction. Calculations should be done for specific door sizes and constructions.
High Level of Blast Protection:
System Configuration | Load Per Bolt kN / LBS | Peak Pressure KPa / PSI |
3-Point Outward Opening | 236 / 53053 | 681 / 98.7 |
5-Point Outward Opening | 236 / 53053 | 1108 / 160.7 |
3-Point Inward Opening | 236 / 53053 | 408 / 59.1 |
5-Point Inward Opening | 236 / 53053 | 664 / 96.3 |
Peak pressure values are a guide based on static load calculations on a particular door construction. Calculations should be done for specific door sizes and constructions.
Extreme Level of Blast Protection:
System Configuration | Load Per Bolt kN / LBS | Peak Pressure KPa / PSI |
3-Point Outward Opening | 1000 / 224800 | 2887 / 418 |
5-Point Outward Opening | 1000 / 224800 | 4694 / 680 |
3-Point Inward Opening | 1000 / 224800 | 1732 / 251 |
5-Point Inward Opening | 1000 / 224800 | 2817 / 408 |
Peak pressure values are a guide based on static load calculations on a particular door construction. Calculations should be done for specific door sizes and constructions.
