1: Flame spread determined in accordance with CAN/ULC-S127 as required by CAN/ULC-S102 for thermosetting charring foam.
2: Joint treatment can include gasketing or butyl sealant. Finished panel joint requires Nuco Self-Seal Non-Sag GG-200 sealant continuous applied to seal over joint and underlying gaskets and sealant and shall include panel fastening with screws at top and bottom of joint.
VAGA V-Tag and Camlock IMP have the following ratings determined in accordance with CAN/ULC-S138:

Model(s)
CAN/ULC-S1381
V-TAG and V-CAM IMP
Sprinklered Room Compliant when equipped with standard response 68oC (155oF) activation temperature, pendant style listed sprinklers. Joints can include optional gasketing or butyl sealant. After installation, joint is to be sealed with Nuco Self-Seal Non-Sag GG-200 silicone sealant applied to continuously cover joint, and panels are fastened at joint top and bottom. Installation requires 51 mm x 51 mm (2-inch x 2-inch) steel angle trim at wall to ceiling, wall to floor, and wall corner intersections.
Note 1: VAGA IMP found to comply with 2020 National Building Code of Canada, Section 3.1.5.7 Factory-Assembled Panels for use as walk-in cooler or freezer panels in sprinklered buildings, based on compliance with CAN/ULC-S138 where the interior finish rating meets flame spread ratings noted in CAN/ULC S102 above for V-Tag Panels where joints are treated as noted.
VAGA V-TAG and V-CAM IMP have the following thermal resistivity and minimum thickness required for compliance with National Resources Canada (NRCan) Energy Efficiency Regulation requirements when evaluated per ASTM C518 for applications noted1:
