electronic FIRE PROTECTION

Fotolia © RicoPatuca Images Deluge systems Fires cause billions of euros of damage in Germany every year. Production and storage areas where high-calorific substances are handled (e.g. plastics, rubber etc.) are particularly at risk. Where these products are involved, fires will spread quickly. The speed at which the fire spreads is accelerated significantly by the carrying over of fires and hot spots to other production areas via conveyor belts. In such high-risk areas, T&B deluge systems are used: a combination of fire alarm and water extinguishing system. Fotolia © Andrei Merkulov „The fact...

Fire detection Depending on the local circumstances and the existing fire load, fire detection is usually by means of flame, smoke or heat detectors. Both electric and pneumatic heat detectors can be used. Flame detector for the detection of open flames. Smoke detector for the detection of smouldering fires. The trigger temperature should be approximately 30 °C above the maximum ambient temperature in order to avoid false alarms. The maximum area monitored per detector is always determined in accordance with VdS guideline 2095.

Fire detection Pneumatic triggering elements for triggering following sharp increase in temperature. Fire prevention to protect machines, halls or open spaces. Our early fire detection system based on an infrared camera detects fires as they are developing. For reliable fire prevention, we combine the infrared detection with our VdS-certified extinguishing system. Choose the infrared camera in the version that suits your plant: Either certified according the VdS or the EN 54-10: depending on the processes and insurance requirements.

Deluge systems Deluge systems in combination with the described detection systems detect fires particularly quickly and distribute the water evenly to all the nozzles within an extinguishing area. This quickly cools the burning material and draws the heat from the ambient air. Thus fires can be fought quickly and safely even in critical areas, and the fire is prevented from spreading. In addition, a deluge system can always be actuated manually. Manual button for manual actuation of the deluge system. Open and closed nozzles with different sprinkling patterns for different applications. Deluge...

Room protection | Object protection Room protection is necessary e. g. in combined production and storage areas. Object protection is installed for separate machining centres where fire flashover to other areas must be prevented.
