48" x 48" BA-DSH-A Automatic Double Smoke Vent - Steel & Aluminum
Imagine being trapped in a burning building, surrounded by thick smoke that makes it hard to breathe and see. Panic sets in as the exits seem to vanish. Firefighters battling through the blinding smoke are also at risk as they attempt to control the fire.
This is where the BA-DSH-A comes in. Upon detecting a fire, it removes smoke, heat, and harmful gases, improving visibility for those trapped inside and the firefighters. This system reduces dangers and increases the chances of a safe escape.
The BA-DSH-A is essential for large commercial and industrial spaces like warehouses. It eliminates smoke, heat, and toxic gases during a fire. Featuring a double-leaf design and the Thermolatch® II mechanism, it activates automatically when a UL-listed fusible link melts at 165°F (74°C).
This durable aluminum vent features powerful gas springs and integral dampers for controlled opening speed. It is insulated, gasketed for weathertightness, UL-listed, and made from corrosion-resistant materials. This enhances visibility during evacuations and aids firefighting efforts.
