Temet - Shelters and Protective Structures

Temet is the brand name in technology for shelters and protective buildings designed against threats originating from terrorism, military actions or industrial accidents. The product range covers blast resistant doors, blast valves, gastight valves, NBC / CBRN filters, filtration systems and carbon dioxide removal systems. Temet provides solutions for civil defense shelters, military faclities and vehicles and also to control rooms and personnel facilities in petrochemical and other industries.

Temet's product range for hardened shelters is complemented with soft indoor shelters equipped with effective filtration for NBC-agents and toxic industrial chemicals.

BLAST RESISTANT DOORS

Temet offers a wide range of blast resistant and gas-tight doors for military and industrial applications. The client has a choice from a large variety of pre-engineered doors (categories SO-1, SO-3 and SO-6) for blast pressures from 1 bar to 18 bar (14.5psi to 261psi) reflected peak over-pressure, and sizes from 900mm x 2,000mm (3ft x 6½ft) to over 4,000mm x 4,000mm (13ft x 13ft). Temet also regularly delivers custom-designed protective doors in accordance with the client's own specification.

BLAST AND GASTIGHT VALVES

Temet blast valves and blast dampers are used as intake and outlet air ventilation valves in blast protected buildings to block out the destructive effects of explosions. All valve types are tested with multiple blast loads over the entire load range from high peaked short duration load to quasi-static long duration blast load. Temet blast valves are available in two basic configurations; circular PSV, PV and PVD valves independently installed in concrete wall or ducting, and modular block type PV-KK valves providing a space saving mounting in large wall frames or I-beam walls.

Gastight KS closing valves are designed to isolate space from contaminated environment, to maintain overpressure and to regulate air flow between compartments. The valves can be equipped with various actuators.

NBC FILTERS

Temet provides the latest technology in collective Nuclear, Biological and Chemical (NBC) protection. Temet NBC filters remove all toxic military agents from the intake air. Filters for harmful industrial chemicals can also be provided.

Temet ES filter series incorporates four basic filter sizes with nominal air flow capacity of 75m³/h to 1,250m³/h.

CV-90 Filter series consists of three different filter sizes with nominal airflow capacity of 50m³/h, 150m³/h and 170m³/h. These filters are especially designed for armoured vehicles, naval vessels and small COLPRO solutions.

EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEMS

ESL filtration systems consist of pre-filters, multiple NBC filters, blower unit, ducting, motorized or manual gas tight dampers and measuring/control devices and other necessary auxiliary components. In new versions the operation can be made fully automated by Temet Advanced Shelter Control System TASCS and the modular structure makes installation easier.

CO2 REGENERATIVE CARBON DIOXIDE REMOVAL SYSTEM

Temet regenerative system for removal of carbon dioxide from the indoor air in collective protection shelters. Advantages of this system compared with soda-lime CO2 removal technology are obvious: the same adsorption media is always reusable after regeneration cycle thus making a long stay in the fully closed shelter possible without the need for stockpiling of adsorption material for filter refill.

SOFT COLLECTIVE PROTECTION SHELTERS

The Temet LSS-80 Protection System is a complete and light positive pressure shelter designed for erection inside a building at home or at the office. The LSS-80 provides a safe protected space for a maximum of six persons for an extended period of time. The LSS-80 comprises a tent and an NBC - Filtration Unit powered by an electric motor and provided with a manual hand crank back-up drive.
