Dry Chemical Fire Suppression Systems

The cost to shut down a production line because of a fire can exceed the cost of the actual material damage. With dry chemical fire suppression systems, fire in process equipment can be rapidly detected, extinguished, and production resumed.

Detecting the Fire

Depending on the nature of the equipment under protection, we can activate dry chemical fire suppression systems using several different fire detection technologies:

• Mechanical fusible links
• Electric thermal detectors
• Flame detectors such as uv detectors and ir detectors
• Linear heat detection strips
• Pneumatic fire detection loops
  

Types of Equipment Protected

The best candidates for dry chemical fire suppression systems are industrial applications. The agents most commonly employed are ABC or BC type powder. They are extremely effective fire fighting agents that suppresses fire by coating the surface of the combusting material. The coating separates the fuel from the oxygen supply, and prevents reflash. Typical hazards protected include:

• Dip tanks
• Flammable liquid storage areas
• Mechanical rooms
• Exhaust ducts
• Quench tanks
• Coating equipment
