  1. Allow the Curtains to warm to room temperature (50 Deg. F) before unfolding them.
    • Allow the Curtains to warm to room temperature (50 Deg. F) before unfolding them.

    • Premium Clean Curtain Track System is corrosion resistant partitioning divider designed for wash-down and low contamination areas. It is manufactured from stainless steel, Delrin, and other materials exhibiting anti-microbial and anti-oxidation characteristics.

    • The Track System is modular and sectional in design. Pieces telescope together using stub splices that are sealed with BioSeal RTV Silicone to eliminate entrapment and contamination crevices and gaps.

    • Track sections and components cannot be cut or adjusted in the field.

    • Appropriate Installation Hardware, straps, threaded rods, clamps, turnbuckles, etc. will be supplied by the Installer.

    • To reduce sway and deflection of large, elaborate systems, crisscross/angled drop supports will be required.

    • The Installer is responsible for using best practices to install the Track system in the Facility.

  2. Your kit will have all of the necessary Assembly Hardware, components, and a Track Layout Drawing for a complete Track and Curtain Assembly.
    • Your kit will have all of the necessary Assembly Hardware, components, and a Track Layout Drawing for a complete Track and Curtain Assembly.

    • Unpack your systems carefully, and notify the factory if there are any shortages, or if any items have been damaged during transit.

    • Track systems are more easily assembled on the floor, and then raised in smaller sections for installation.

    • Apply a bead of BioSeal RTV Silicone (included) all the way around each telescoping joint before joining a wall Mount Bracket, Bridge Bracket, or Hanger Bracket, with the provided 1/4” hardware.

    • The RTV is a sealant which provides a hermetic seal, but it does not provide any form of structure, mechanical rigidity, or bonding.

    • Lay the Track and Connectors in sequential order on the floor below the Installation Location.

  3. End Stop Bracket, Universal - Universal End Stops retain the Trollies on the Track. Bridge Hanger Bracket -Hanger Brackets are used to secure Track Joints and to bridge Gaps.
    • End Stop Bracket, Universal - Universal End Stops retain the Trollies on the Track.

    • Bridge Hanger Bracket -Hanger Brackets are used to secure Track Joints and to bridge Gaps.

    • Hardware Set - A Hex Bolt and Flat Washer sandwich two Brackets, and are secured with a Flat Washer, Lock Washer, and Nut.

    • Trolley - Before assembling the final End Stop Bracket, slide the Trolley Assemblies onto the Track.

    • Track, Straight - Cannot be Field Cut

    • Two Sets of Hardware are included for each Joint Connection. One Set of Hardware is included for End Stop Brackets.

  4. For Specific Connection instructions, see Steps following this Step.
    • For Specific Connection instructions, see Steps following this Step.

    • Apply a bead of BioSeal RTV Silicone around each telescoping joint before assembling.

    • Prepare the Track Sections by installing a Bridge Bracket with two sets of 1/4" Hardware at the breaks in the welded Track Brackets, .

    • At one End of the Run, install RTV, an End Wall Mount Bracket and the First section of Track.

    • Install a set of 1/4" Hardware to secure the two parts.

    • Continue adding Track Sections, RTV, Bridge Brackets and two sets of 1/4" Hardware at each Track Joint.

    • At the last Section of Track, assemble RTV, an End Wall Mount Bracket and 1/4" Hardware.

    • Assemble this to the End of the Run.

  5. 90 Degree Curved Track Sections require 24" in each direction. Straight Track Runs will be shortened by 24" to compensate for a 90 Degree Curved Track Section.
    • 90 Degree Curved Track Sections require 24" in each direction. Straight Track Runs will be shortened by 24" to compensate for a 90 Degree Curved Track Section.

    • Follow Instructions for the Straight Track Sections.

    • Straight Track cannot be Field Cut.

    • Insert the end of the Track into the end of the Curve Track.

    • Install a Hanger Bracket with 1/4" Hardware.

    • Level and Mount the Curve Track.

    • Apply RTV, then Insert the next Section of Straight Track into the other end of the Curved Track, and secure it with 1/4" Hardware.

    • Continue to follow the Straight Track Instructions (above).

  6. Apply a bead of BioSeal RTV Silicone around each telescoping joint before assembling. Insert the Male Coupling of the End Stop into
    • Apply a bead of BioSeal RTV Silicone around each telescoping joint before assembling.

    • Insert the Male Coupling of the End Stop into

    • the Female end of a Straight Track Section.

    • Fasten the Brackets through the Welded Track Brackets with one Set of Hardware.

  7. Brackets are welded to to Track Sections. The Gaps between the welded Brackets need to be linked with Bridge Brackets.
    • Brackets are welded to to Track Sections.

    • The Gaps between the welded Brackets need to be linked with Bridge Brackets.

    • Use two Sets of Hardware to attach a

    • Bridge Bracket at each Mid-Track Gap.

  8. Apply a bead of BioSeal RTV Silicone around each telescoping joint before assembling.
    • Apply a bead of BioSeal RTV Silicone around each telescoping joint before assembling.

    • Bridge Connectors are used to secure two lengths of Track together.

    • Use two Sets of Hardware to attach Bridge Bracket at each Track Joint.

  9. When the Curtains have reached room temperature (50 Deg. F), unfold them on a clean surface.
    • When the Curtains have reached room temperature (50 Deg. F), unfold them on a clean surface.

    • Begin at one end inserting the grommets onto the hooks.

    • A single Curtain, and single layered sections, will use one Trolley for each Grommet.

    • For a Single Curtain arrangement, crimp the Trolley Hooks closed after the Grommets are installed on the Hooks.

    • For a Multiple Curtain arrangement, Crimp all But the Last 2 Roller Hooks of the 1st Curtain.

    • The 2nd Curtain (and consecutive Curtains) will share the last two Trollies of the 1st/Previous Curtain.

    • Continue Hooking, overlapping and Crimping the Trollies until the Curtain Run is complete.
