A fire suppression system is an engineered unit created for extinguishing fires. More often than not, a fire suppression system comes with components that can detect fire in its nascent stages.
A fire suppression system usually extinguishes the flames through heat absorption and oxygen depletion. In order to minimize the damage and losses from fire, a fire suppression system might be used.
How does the suppression system work so perfectly? The suppression system detects the flames through smoke, heat, and other warning signals. The parts of the suppression systems are often integrated into an alarm system, which gets triggered when the fire is detected. This trigger also initiates the primary steps that help to suppress the fire further. Most suppression systems release the fire extinguishing components automatically once the alarm is triggered. However, other systems require manual intervention.
Pre Action System: While not mandatory, pre-action systems are highly recommended for companies or organizations dealing with items and equipment that are water-sensitive as well as those in areas where wet-pipe sprinkler systems tend to freeze.
Pre-Engineered System: This type of suppression system is used for protecting the micro-environment. Electrical panels and engine compartments are the places where such systems are used for providing protection. Pre-Engineered Systems are also useful for suppressing Electrical Panels,EDM and CNC machine fires.
Clean Agent Suppression System: Clean Agent Suppression Systems use environment-friendly chemical agents to suppress fires. The clean-up process of the chemical is minimal, safe, and hassle-free.
Kitchen Fire Suppression System: This type of suppression system is typically used in commercial kitchens. The system properties a water-based chemical type mix over the fire when necessary. Most Kitchen Fire Suppression Systems are either manual or heat-triggered and do not require any electrical connection to operate.
Total Flooding System: In the suppression system, a network of distribution channels/piping is created throughout the space. The Total Flooding System is perfect for fighting fire breakouts of any type.
