Kameleon 5 glazed natural casement ventilator, suitable both for day to day and smoke ventilation through the façade. Both flap and base frames have thermal breaks. It is particularly suited for installation into glazing systems. Kameleon conforms to EN 12101-2 and EN 14351-1 and is CE marked. For vertical installation only. It is manufactured under the ISO 9001 quality standard.
Kameleon 5 is a thermally broken glazed natural casement ventilator for installation into the vertical for both day to day and smoke ventilation.
Its form and function makes it particularly suited to naturally ventilated buildings where high acoustic, thermal and aerodynamic performance is required. Typical applications are hospitals, schools, shopping centres, apartments and commercial buildings.
A wide range of applications – Kameleon 5 is classed as a dual purpose ventilator, providing both day to day and smoke control ventilation. It can also be installed either for low level air inlet or for high level extract. Glass versions allow the entry of natural daylight, and a wide range of infill panels are available. Options include pneumatic or electronic controls, as well as a variety of finishes. There are two different flap profile types, depending on the required appearance and performance of the ventilator.
High performance - Kameleon 5 has high aerodynamic, acoustic and thermal performance, and also has a high resistance to the effects of fire. Both flap and base frames have thermal breaks. See the product options page for further details.
Proven performance – All versions of Kameleon 5 have been exhaustively tested and certified to EN 12101-2: 2003 as dual purpose ventilators in accredited third party test laboratories and are CE marked. The ventilator is also CE marked to EN 14351-1, which guarantees its performance as a façade element.
High performance in a fire – Kameleon 5 is very suitable for protecting escape routes in places such as stairwells where it can act as an automatically opening ventilator (AOV), since it has high aerodynamic efficiency, opens quickly, and has a large opening.
Easy to install - Kameleon 5 is delivered fully assembled to site for installation into a structural opening or curtain walling. It must be installed in the vertical.
Durable – The frame is manufactured from tough, corrosion resistant aluminium alloy, with stainless steel fixings.
Quality of manufacture - Kameleon 5 is manufactured under the ISO 9001 quality standard. Each unit is given a functional test before despatch.
Aesthetic design – Kameleon 5 uses a narrow framework. Electric actuators or pneumatic cylinders can be hidden within the frame and are anyway small in size.
We provide a pre-order design service. We also offer complete project management, installation, wiring and commissioning, which means that we take complete responsibility to ensure that the product is in full working order within one package of works.

Colt Kameleon 5 natural casement ventilator, suitable both for day to day and smoke ventilation, conforming to EN 12101-2 and EN 14351-1 and CE marked. Suited only for installation into the façade. Both flap and base frames have thermal breaks. Manufactured under the ISO 9001 quality and ISO 14001 environmental management standards.
Profile depth 76mm.
All components of the base and flap are manufactured from EN AW-6063 T6 aluminium alloy. The frames of both the base and flap are thermally broken.
All controls are installed behind the slim profiles.
If used as a smoke ventilator, activation is either by local thermal fuse which opens the unit at a pre-selected temperature, or by responding to an external release signal.
The following performance attributes follow tests to EN 12101-2:2003 (standard for smoke and heat exhaust ventilators) and EN 14351-1:2006 (standard for windows and doors). The exact performance attribute will depend on the chosen size, controls, and flap type.
