Source - AS 4254.2-2012: Ductwork for air-handling systems in buildings
Standards
a device that operates to restrict the passage of fire or products of combustion through a duct or opening for the passage of air

During recent years, fire collars have been used to protect openings in riser shafts where ventilation ducts penetrate the fire-resistant shaft wall, in lieu of mechanical or intumescent fire dampers. Typically, the ducts are PVC pipes not greater than 200 mm in diameter and are used as bathroom exhaust, laundry exhaust, fume cabinet exhaust or outdoor air supply. Such arrangements are not acceptable under this Standard.
