Introduction
Uni-Metal linen chutes are the most efficient
Self Closing
method of quickly and economically disposing Stainless Steel
of soiled linen in multi storey buildings. Side Hung Door
The dirty linen is usually bagged before
loading into the chute. Side hung doors with Electric
Interlock
large openings are therefore the normal Panel
standard on linen chutes. Hospitals generate
about 3.0 kgs. of soiled linen per bed per day
and a similar figure can be used for hotels.
The increasing cost of using lifts and
maintaining labour in hotels and hospitals
reinforces the decision to install a linen chute.
Application
Original equipment installed in hospitals and
Angle Ring Joint
hotels for the vertical movement of loose and
bagged soiled linen.
Technical Information
C
Uni-Metal linen or laundry chutes have the Floor Support Frame
same basic specification as refuse chutes. For
details on the construction, material
specification and choice please see previous
pages. A full specification for Uni-Metal linen

Linen Chute Doors
SFSP normally recommends the use of a 450 x 450mm door for use with linen chutes and
would also recommend the use of electric interlocks. Linen chute doors are side hung on
stainless steel hinges, with either separate or master keyed locks. The doors are fully self
closing on an efficient hydraulic self closer. Labels can be attached bearing the message
LINEN ONLY in english and/or the local language.
T Fire Safety
To meet British Standards of fire safety an automatic fusible linked fire shutter door with a
1 1/2 hour fire rating should be fitted to the bottom of the linen chute, in the linen collection
room. Fire sprinklers are also recommended to be fitted at every second floor. The
sprinklers are fitted inside the chute entry section and do not interfere with the loading or
E
fall of the soiled linen.
Electric Interlocks
To give increased operator safety we strongly recommend the use of time delay
interlocks inside hung door linen chutes.
Accessories
S The majority of accessories are available with linen chutes as are deceleration tracks,
trolleys and containers for carrying bagged or loose linen-the range can be seen in the
containers section.
