Elta continues to innovate in smoke ventilation solutions market
22 April 2024
MIRRORING THE company’s ongoing quest for innovation in the fire safety arena, Elta has developed and launched its certified prefabricated smoke range. The new range is an add-on solution to its fans designed for both general and emergency situations.

Engineered to streamline the installation process, the new prefabricated units mark a significant shift in the industry's approach to designing and implementing smoke ventilation systems. Elta aims to redefine standards by simplifying complexity and reducing project timelines with prefabricated solutions, thereby ultimately ensuring on-site safety and compliance.
Elta offers a range of car park fans that operate on well-proven tunnel ventilation principles, producing a high velocity jet that, as it diffuses, imparts thrust to the surrounding air through mixing and entrainment. The range includes both induction and impulse ventilation models specifically designed to serve as both general ventilation systems and for one-time emergency extraction of smoke during fire incidents. The fans are capable of operating at temperatures up to 400°C.
The product design eliminates the requirement for ducted systems, making efficient use of the limited space of enclosed car parks, in addition to reducing power consumption and associated running costs.
Efficient smoke removal
Recognising the critical nature of rapid smoke extraction in fire incidents, Elta’s emergency smoke extract fans are specifically engineered for high-performance and high temperatures. These fans are designed to efficiently remove smoke from affected areas, contributing to a safer environment for building occupants and emergency responders alike.
Elta is offering the F200, F300 and F400 models with a range of motor mounting arrangements, as well as both 50 Hz and 60 Hz versions available across the different models.
Complementing Elta’s comprehensive range of smoke ventilation solutions, the ventilation systems manufacturer also offers advanced bespoke control systems designed to provide real-time monitoring and response capabilities. Seamlessly integrated within smoke ventilation systems, these intelligent controls provide building managers with precise and automated smoke extraction management. From emergency scenarios through to routine maintenance, Elta’s control systems play a pivotal role in enhancing overall system reliability and effectiveness.
Quality, performance, integrity
The fundamentals of the Elta product range are quality, performance and integrity. The company’s quality procedures comply with the requirements of ISO 9001, while all smoke fans are certified to EN 12101-3.
Elta also has its own dedicated test laboratory facilities. These are accredited by AMCA. Products are sound tested to BS EN ISO 5136:2009 and BS ISO 13347-2:2004. Air performance is tested to BS EN ISO5801:2007.
The company is exhibiting at this year’s edition of The Fire Safety Event, which takes place at the NEC in Birmingham from 30 April-2 May. Visit Stand C70 in Hall 5. In the meantime, read more online at https://eltauk.com/products/fans/smoke-fans/
