• Modular design for cost-effective maintenance.
• Noise-reducing, wear-free operation with spiral technology.
• Compliant with DIN EN 13241-1 safety standards, with wind resistance up to class 4.

Accessories and Fixings:

• Integrated TÜV-approved door line light grid (EFA-TLG®) for enhanced safety.
• External control options, including remote operation and sensor-based triggers.

Scope of use

The EFA-STR® High-Speed Turbo Roll-Up Door is intended for industrial applications requiring fast, reliable, and efficient access. It is suitable for both interior and exterior installations in logistics hubs, manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and other high-traffic environments. The door performs effectively in areas where temperature control, wind resistance, or contamination prevention is necessary. It can withstand wind loads up to Class 4 (DIN EN 12424) and is compatible with openings up to 7,000 mm in width and 6,000 mm in height. For external use, protective finishes such as stainless steel may be required in high-moisture or corrosive conditions.

The door must be installed on a stable, self-supporting frame and a level, reinforced surface. It requires a power supply of 230V or 400V at 50 Hz, with an appropriately rated circuit breaker. The system is not suitable for environments with extreme cold below -30°C unless specifically modified with insulation and heating components. Installation must adhere to manufacturer guidelines and site-specific safety regulations to ensure optimal performance and compliance.

New Zealand Building Code (NZBC)

The product will, if employed in accordance with the supplier's installation and maintenance requirements, assist with meeting the following provisions of the building code:

• Clause B1 Structure: Performance B1.3.1, B1.3.2, B1.3.3(a), B1.3.3(b), B1.3.3(h)

  The EFA-STR® High-Speed Turbo Roll-Up Door demonstrates structural conformance through adherence to AS/NZS 1170.2 for wind actions and DIN EN 12424 for wind resistance, achieving a rating of Class 4. The design addresses imposed loads, self-weight, and structural stability, verified through testing protocols and manufacturer-provided data.

• Clause B2 Durability: Performance B2.3.1(b)

  Durability is supported by the use of robust materials, such as galvanized steel and anodized aluminum, designed to withstand environmental conditions and industrial use for a minimum of 15 years. This aligns with the expectations outlined in the NZBC durability requirements.

• Clause C3 Fire affecting areas beyond the fire source: Performance C3.7(a)

  The materials used in the door conform to ISO 5660 for fire performance, ensuring they do not produce hazardous quantities of smoke or toxic gases when exposed to heat, thereby meeting fire safety objectives.

• Clause D1 Access routes: Performance D1.3.1(b), D1.3.3(a), D1.3.3(n)

  Accessibility requirements are addressed through automated operation and safety features such as the TÜV-approved EFA-TLG® light grid, meeting ISO 13849-1. These features ensure safe, unobstructed entry and exit while maintaining adequate activity space and user protection.

• Clause E2 External moisture: Performance E2.3.2, E2.3.3

  The door prevents water penetration through compliance with DIN EN 13241, demonstrating performance against water ingress and maintaining the integrity of walls, floors, and structural elements.

• Clause H1 Energy efficiency : Performance H1.3.1(a), H1.3.1(b), H1.3.6(a)

  Thermal insulation and airtightness are supported by a thermal resistance rating of up to 6.0 W/m²K in accordance with DIN EN 12428. This helps to limit uncontrollable airflow and energy loss, contributing to energy efficiency as intended by the NZBC.
