An automatic self seeking fire extinguisher which utilizes a flexible fire detection and delivery tube, firetrace successfully puts out fires where they start. To guarantee the best performance from this system, the detection tube is produced with special polymer materials with excellent detection and delivery characteristics. By using this material, high pressure water mist can successfully extinguish a fire that occurs anywhere along the entire length of the tube.
Every time fire or extreme heat ruptures the tubing, the Indirect Valve is instantly activated by a drop in pressure along the tubes. Right after the Indirect Valve is activated, co2 is discharged towards the fire from the diffuser nozzles through a fixed piping system that was installed beforehand. More than one Firetrace tubing may be used permitting the system to include more area.
A specific agent is most effective in putting out a certain type of fire and Firetrace can cater for any kind of agent which makes it very versatile. Clean, inert and unaffected by any kind of residue, carbon dioxide is ideal for clean settings such as: electrical switchboards, control cabinets, flammable liquid storage cabinets, laboratory fume cabinets and automatic teller machines.Carbon dioxide has several advantages as a suppression agent besides being an vital part of Earth’s atmosphere because it absorbs and releases infrared radiation, thus playing a part in the greenhouse effect, However, never inhabit a place safeguarded by a Carbon dioxide FireTrace system since extended exposure may be deadly particularly if inhaled.
A unique, cost-effective, automatic fire suppression system, FireTrace offers complete installation flexibility due to its stand-alone design and operation. Sincefiretrace is a self-contained, stand-alone system, its functionality is not affected by electricity, or water main outages. The system’s low pressure switch allows system release to be monitored and integrated with the site?s fire detection and alarm system or building management system. Firetrace is perfect for electrical panels because it can quickly sense and suppress a fire inside the cabinet, keeping damage to a bare minimum and preventing the spread of fire to neighboring cabinets Since the detection tubing is both the detection device and the suppressant delivery system, operation is trouble-free hence minimizing maintenance expenditure.
