Maintenance
- Maintenance-free as construction and materials are not subject to wear
- Contamination should be removed as it may lead to corrosion and to increased closed door air leakage
Function
Low-leakage steel doors are low-leakage separating elements for rooms or other enclosures.
When the door is being closed, i.e. when the double locking levers are being turned, the perimeter seal is fully pressed against the frame. As a consequence, the air leakage rate is extremely low even in case of high differential pressures.

Specification Text
Low-leakage steel doors as separating elements for walk-in plant rooms, storage rooms, air handling units, filter chambers, or enclosures for machinery or electrical equipment.
Ready-to-install component that consists of a door leaf with double lever locking devices, absorption material, seal and hinges, and a frame.
Air leakage rate on the opening side is approx. 1.29 cfm at 4.02 in w.g. (single leaf door).
Special characteristics
- Variants with additional sound insulating lining (X construction variants) provide good sound absorption
- U-value: 1.02 W/(m²K) at 8 W/(m²K) for internal spaces (air not in motion) and 25 W/(m²K) for outside (air in motion)
- Optional door frame without fixing tabs (-21) but with flange holes
