A Fire Suppression System (FSS) works on the principle of Local Application Suppression, offering an ideal solution for installations and places where fires can be hidden and rapid, 24/7 fire protection is required. These systems are particularly crucial in environments with expensive machinery and sensitive equipment where even a few seconds of delay in fire detection or suppression can lead to significant damage. For such installations, immediate fire detection and suppression are paramount to avoid costly downtime and operational losses.

Features and Benefits:

  • 24/7 Reliable Protection: The system provides continuous, round-the-clock fire detection and suppression, ensuring safety at all times.
  • Instant Fire Detection & Suppression: The system is designed to detect and suppress fires almost instantly, preventing extensive damage to critical equipment.
  • Minimal Damage: By responding rapidly, FSS minimizes the damage caused by fire and reduces operational disruption.
  • Compatibility with Multiple Agents: The system is compatible with various commercially available fire suppression agents, providing flexibility for different applications.

Choosing the Right Agent:

The FSS can work with the following fire suppression agents:

  • Clean Agent
  • ABC Dry Powder
  • HCFC 123
  • CO2

These agents are selected based on the specific needs of the environment being protected. Each agent is effective in suppressing different types of fires, ensuring that the fire suppression system works optimally for various applications.

How Does SALCON Fire Work?

1. Direct Release Systems
In the Direct Release System, the Quick Kill Fire Tubing serves both as the fire detection and delivery system for the fire suppressant. When a fire is detected, the tube closest to the hottest point of the fire ruptures, effectively acting as a discharge nozzle. The pressure drop inside the tube causes the entire content of the fire suppression cylinder to be released, directly combating the fire.

2. Indirect Release Systems
The Indirect Release System uses Quick Kill Detection Tubing solely as a detection device. When the tube bursts due to fire, the suppression agent is delivered through copper or stainless steel tubing, or braided hoses. This method ensures that the fire suppressant is discharged through nozzles strategically placed within the protected enclosure to cover the area efficiently.
