What is an Automatic Fire Extinguishing System?
Automatic Fire Extinguishing System is an active fire protection system that uses water, foam, chemicals, or dry powder to automatically detect and extinguish fires. This kind of system helps to provide early warning of a potential fire and can react quickly to reduce the speed at which the fire spreads. In fact, automatic systems have been shown to be up to eight times faster than manual fire suppression efforts.
This system uses various detection devices such as smoke detectors, heat detectors, flame detectors and carbon monoxide detectors that are strategically placed throughout a building in order to detect when a fire breaks out. The system will then activate a series of valves that will release the specific extinguishing agent for the type of fire detected in order to suppress it as quickly as possible.
The most common types of this system are gaseous systems such as Halon replacements like Novec 1230 or FM-200; water mist systems; foam systems; wet chemical systems; powder systems; and aerosol/clean agent systems. Each type has its own unique characteristics and is most suitable for certain types of fires and environments. For example, a wet chemical system may be best suited for kitchen environments where grease fires may occur whereas foam may be more appropriate for machinery rooms with flammable liquids present.
The installation of Automatic Fire Extinguishing Systems is essential in many buildings where people congregate or where hazardous materials are stored or used helping protect lives, property and assets from the ravages of uncontrolled fire outbreaks.
What types of businesses can benefit most from an Automatic Fire Extinguishing System?
Automatic fire extinguishing systems can provide significant benefits to a variety of businesses. Restaurants, warehouses, industrial plants, and storage facilities are just some of the organizations that can benefit from this type of system.
For restaurants, an automatic system can be essential for keeping patrons safe in case of a kitchen or other area fire. This is especially important in large kitchens with multiple combustible materials and lots of activity. With an automatic system, the risk of fire spreading or injuring staff is greatly reduced.
In warehouses, garages, and storage facilities large-scale fires are more complicated to put out quickly due to high ceilings and areas with difficult access points. An automatic system can trigger a response immediately upon detecting smoke or heat, dousing the flames before they spread beyond the source. It also allows personnel to direct their attention toward evacuation instead of firefighting.
For industrial plants where flammable material is processed or stored on a regular basis, having an automated installation can be a life saver if there's a spark or electrical malfunction that goes unnoticed by personnel until its too late. The system will be able to instantly detect any smoke or temperature increase and respond accordingly by providing immediate coverage for potentially hazardous areas.
