SYSTEM ADVANTAGES

Clamp locking, modular construction and engineered sealing

Clamp-lock design

Mechanical clamps replace individual bolted fixings during deployment for faster assembly and repeatable installation. Permanent tracks still require secure anchorage; the catalogue specifies a lever bar for clamp installation.

Modular and lightweight

Panels and tracks form continuous flood barriers. Aluminium alloy, stainless steel and zinc alloy fittings combine strength, corrosion resistance and ease of handling. Confirm the configuration for the project.

Engineered EPDM sealing

Multiple EPDM seals and a dedicated bottom seal work with mechanical compression to control leakage paths under hydrostatic pressure. Confirm watertightness against a valid report for the selected configuration.

Low maintenance and organised storage

A straightforward structure and storage rack simplify component management. Regular cleaning, seal checks and moving-part maintenance support long-term reliability.

A/B MODEL AND SUPPORT SELECTION

Select by model, clear opening width and design flood height

FH-01-A covers listed configurations up to 1.0 m; FH-01-B offers listed configurations at 1.2 m or 1.8 m. The table follows the revised catalogue. Use each row as a matched model, width, height and support arrangement.

FH-01-A | 1.0 m-class configurations

Listed flood heights ≤ 1.0 m. Support requirements vary with clear width; widths over 6 m require project review.

FH-01-B | 1.2 m / 1.8 m configurations

3 m × 1.2 m can use no supplemental support; 3–6 m × 1.2 m uses a top compression post; 3 m × 1.8 m uses an intermediate post and diagonal bracing.

Select by model, clear opening width and design flood height
Model	Clear opening width	Design flood height	Support configuration
FH-01-A	≤ 3 m	≤ 1.0 m	No supplemental support
FH-01-A	> 3 m – 6 m	≤ 1.0 m	Top compression post
FH-01-A	> 6 m	≤ 1.0 m	Intermediate posts and diagonal bracing, subject to project review
FH-01-B	3 m	1.2 m	No supplemental support
FH-01-B	3–6 m	1.2 m	Top compression post
FH-01-B	3 m	1.8 m	Intermediate post and diagonal bracing

The catalogue lists both a 3 m × 1.2 m Model B arrangement without supplemental support and a 3–6 m × 1.2 m arrangement with a top compression post. At the 3 m boundary, confirm supports against the selected design and installation drawings. Do not generalise the listed 3 m width to every width ≤ 3 m. Other dimensions or conditions require review.

A ≤ 1.0 m / B 1.2 m

No supplemental support

Model A: width ≤ 3 m, height ≤ 1.0 m. Model B: width 3 m, height 1.2 m. No top compression post, intermediate post or diagonal bracing; tracks and anchorage still require proper installation.

A > 3–6 m / B 3–6 m

Intermediate post and bracing

Model A: width over 6 m, height ≤ 1.0 m, subject to project review. Model B: width 3 m, height 1.8 m. Intermediate posts support panel spans; fit bracing and anchorage to the project drawings.

Images illustrate support arrangements only. Select dimensions from the model table and project drawings.

Dimensions or conditions outside the listed configurations require review. Engineering Judgment (EJ) support is a project-specific technical assessment, not a replacement for required testing, certification or approval.

MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS

Panels, tracks, clamps and seals work together

Main tracks

High-strength stainless steel or carbon steel tracks with weather-resistant elastomeric seals provide edge restraint and sealing.

Barrier panel system

Lightweight aluminium alloy panels with a dedicated bottom sealing detail form the modular barrier face.

Side and top clamp assemblies

Dedicated side and top clamps mechanically secure the panels and compress the seals. Confirm supports, anchorage and fittings against the selected model and project drawings.

Storage and accessories

A storage rack keeps parts organised. Floor tracks and installation tools can be supplied to suit the project.

PERFORMANCE DOCUMENTATION

Match performance verification to the model and configuration

The revised catalogue lists static water, wave impact, water current and water retention after dynamic impact as review items. Verify leakage against the selected configuration and design flood height; check structural capacity at the design water level and confirm anchorage.

Use a valid report for the selected model, opening dimensions, design flood height and support configuration. The A/B revision supplies no detailed report or product certification document. This page does not infer PAS 1188-4 compliance, FM Approved status, BSI Kitemark certification or zero leakage. FD-02 FM approval does not extend to FH-01-A/B.

Durability and environment

The catalogue describes suitability for humid, coastal and typical outdoor environments, with a main system design life ≥ 20 years. Assess materials, exposure and regular seal inspection and maintenance for the project.

INSTALLATION AND READINESS

Five-step installation for the selected model

01
Site check
Measure and verify opening dimensions and installation positions.
02
Floor track
Recess and level the floor track. The catalogue specifies a level deviation ≤ 2 mm.
03
Wall tracks
Anchor the wall tracks. Metal-clad walls require embedded steel tubes according to the catalogue installation detail; confirm the actual anchorage design.
04
Panel assembly
Stack the panels from bottom to top in numbered order.
05
Clamp locking
Use the lever bar to install clamps and fully compress the seals. Fit supports to the selected model and installation drawings, and check anchorage.

Fit supports per the selected model and installation drawings. Check anchorage.

Keep the system deployment-ready

Monthly: clean the tracks and inspect the seals.
Annually: lubricate moving parts and inspect clamps.
Periodically: water-test seal integrity under an agreed site procedure.

FAQ

FH-01-A / FH-01-B: model-selection questions

What is the difference between FH-01-A and FH-01-B?

Both belong to the FH-01 rapid-install clamp-lock flood barrier series, using mechanical clamps to secure aluminium alloy panels and compress EPDM seals. Model A lists design flood heights ≤ 1.0 m. Model B offers 1.2 m and 1.8 m configurations. Select supports as a matched model, clear width and design flood height.

How are supports selected for different Model A opening widths?

For FH-01-A at design flood heights ≤ 1.0 m: width ≤ 3 m needs no supplemental support; widths over 3 m to 6 m use a top compression post; widths over 6 m use intermediate posts and diagonal bracing and require project review.

Does the revised A/B catalogue establish FM or BSI product certification?

No. The revised catalogue requires valid performance reports for the selected model, dimensions, flood height and supports. It supplies no FM Approval, BSI Kitemark certificate or detailed report. The previous PAS 1188-4 reference cannot be assumed to apply to the revised A/B range, and FD-02 FM approval cannot be transferred to FH-01-A/B.

Do FH-01-A/B guarantee zero leakage?

This page makes no zero-leakage guarantee. Check watertightness against the valid report and acceptance requirements for the selected model, dimensions, design flood height, supports and site sealing conditions. The revised catalogue supplies no universal leakage-rate value for all configurations.

How should FH-01-A/B be maintained?

The catalogue recommends monthly track cleaning and seal checks, annual moving-part lubrication and clamp inspection, and periodic water testing of seal integrity. A main system design life ≥ 20 years does not remove the need to maintain seals.

What site information is needed for model selection?

Provide clear opening width, design flood height, floor and wall construction, anchorage conditions, support and deployment space, drainage and water-flow conditions, storage arrangements and acceptance criteria. Select Model A or B, then check the listed configuration and valid performance documents. Other dimensions or conditions require project-specific review.

What supports do Model B 1.2 m and 1.8 m configurations require?

FH-01-B can use no supplemental support at a clear width of 3 m and design flood height of 1.2 m. The listed 3–6 m width at 1.2 m uses a top compression post. At 3 m width and 1.8 m height, an intermediate post and diagonal bracing are required; this is not a 3 m × 1.8 m unsupported configuration. Other dimensions or conditions require review.

Does a 20-year main system design life mean a 20-year warranty?

No. The catalogue states main system design life ≥ 20 years, which differs from a commercial warranty term and seal replacement intervals. Actual service life depends on materials, exposure, installation and maintenance. Warranty terms are governed by the supply contract.
