Our powder extinguishing systems for room and object protection.
The extinguishing powders used in powder extinguishing systems are highly efficient, quick-acting extinguishants. The sudden extinguishing effect of the powder cloud is caused by the suffocation effect and the anticatalytic effect, a chemical intervention into the combustion process. Extinguishing powders mainly consist of non-poisonous inorganic salts mixed with waterproofing and pouring agents. They are used for fires with solid, liquid or gaseous substances and for metal fires, thus, they are used for fire classification A, B, C and D.
Large powder extinguishing systems
If several rooms
and objects are to be protected with powder extinguishing systems, a central
powder storage in compression-proof steel vessels, which is sufficient for all
protection areas, should be provided. Up to 4,000 kg powder can be stored in a
single vessel of this kind.
Small powder extinguishing systems
Small powder
extinguishing systems are recommended for objects with a limited scope of
protection. To a great extent the design and dimensioning of such powder
extinguishing systems is standardized for several similar objects and thus,
costs are minimized. They are preferably used in extractor hoods, exhaust air
ducts, laboratories and experimenting institutes etc.
Range of application:
e.g. chemical
works, petrol dumps, compressor and pump stations, utilities substations for
oil and gas, gas burner stations at boiler plants, oil cellars, rolling mills,
test stands, hydraulic systems, aircraft hangars, LNG, LPG and chemical
tankers, laboratory rooms and equipment, hazardous waste systems
