FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEMS

Fire Suppression System

FM200 (Clean Agent) Automatic Fire Suppression System

Chemical Name : HeptaFluroPropane
Chemical Formula : CF3CHFCF3
ASHARE Name : HFC227ea
Trade Name : FM200

Fast-acting and complete, with extinguishments capability within seconds via a combination of chemically based fire inhibition and cooling at the flame front. Extinguishing concentration is reached in seconds.
Safe, Non Toxic and environmentally acceptable for sensitive equipment, FM-200 extinguishes fires by physically removing heat energy from the flame.

FM-200 reacts quickly at low concentrations to eliminate a fire. In normally occupied areas, people can breathe FM-200 at extinguishing concentrations without fear.
As the clean agent of the future, FM-200 has rapid and effective performance, safe for occupied spaces and delicate equipment, and environmentally friendly – does not deplete the ozone layer.

NOVEC 1230 Automatic Fire Suppression System

NOVEC 1230 is the next generation of chemical fire suppressant in place of FM200 which was a market leader for the exchange of Halon.

Novec 1230 Fire Protection Fluid is an environmentally acceptable, people compatible, clean agent for vital facilities with a wide range of hazards. Novec 1230 Fire Protection Fluid suppresses the fire by removing the heat energy and interrupting the combustion process. With extinguishment capabilities of 10 seconds or less, Novec 1230 Fire Protection Fluid has the capability to extinguish fires fast and effectively – before any damage is done to your valued assets.

CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) Automatic Fire Suppression System

Carbon dioxide is an environmentally safe gas that is colorless, odorless, electrically nonconductive, and efficient as a clean agent fire suppression agent.

Carbon dioxide has a high ratio of expansion, which facilitates rapid discharge and allows for three-dimensional penetration of the entire hazard area quickly. Stored in steel containers as a liquid, Carbon dioxide extinguishes a fire by cooling the atmosphere and reducing the oxygen content of the protected area below the point where it can support combustion. It has no residual cleanup associated with its use as a fire-suppressing agent. Carbon dioxide can be used to protect a wide variety of hazards to fit your industrial and commercial fire protection needs.

We offer the CO2 Gas Flooding System that provides its own pressure for discharging through Valves, Pipe work and Nozzles. From main distribution valves, a piping system is used to distribute the gas to the discharge nozzles, which are placed uniformly throughout the protected areas. Designed to withstand every climatic conditions, this solution is widely used in following area of applications:

Transformers
Power Generators
Machinery Spaces
Ships Holds
Electrical Equipment
Chemical Equipment
Chemical Work & Stores
Switch Rooms

At Sixmo Technologies, our engineers are certified factory trained to deploy both simple and complex CO2 systems. We are pleased to provide you with more detailed information on request.

Kitchen Fire Suppression System

Kitchen fire suppression system is specially designed for suppression of fires in commercial kitchen appliances, plenums, hoods and ducts. Each system operates automatically or may be operated manually. The system uses a liquid chemical as its agent.

The systems are ideally suited to meet the demands associated with today’s busy catering facilities An important characteristic of grease fires is auto-ignition. Cooking grease at room temperature is not a problem. Its vapours, for example, are not easily ignited. However, when heated to auto-ignition temperature - extinguishing the fire alone and removing the heat source may not prevent re-ignition. Re-ignition can occur until the liquid is cooled below its auto-ignition temperature.

It is the principal requirement of fire extinguishing and the prevention of re-ignition that makes the Wet Chemical system the ideal solution.

The Wet Chemical Extinguishing agent is a potassium carbonate based solution which is discharged as fine droplets into a protected area. The main extinguishing action is by cooling caused by the heat of vapourisation. The fine spray discharge prevents the dangerous splash of hot grease or thermal shock damage to cooking appliances.

Re-ignition is prevented by saponification, a process in which the wet chemical agent combines with the grease to form a soapy layer at the surface of grease to seal off the fuel from the oxygen, allowing the grease to cool to below it’s auto-ignition temperature. The system operates at a nominal pressure of 12 bar (175p.s.i.) providing a fine spray discharge lasting for a nominal 45 seconds.

The unique nature of the Wet Chemical Extinguishing Agent eliminates many of the piping limitations commonly associated with dry chemical systems.

Water Mist Fire Suppression System

Water mist fire suppression solution offers a cutting-edge approach to fire suppression technology, utilizing fine water droplets of less than 1,000 microns to extinguish fires. Water has favorable physical properties for fire suppression, including a high heat capacity and rapid cooling capabilities. When it evaporates to steam and expands significantly, the surrounding oxygen and fuel vapors are depleted. The Water Mist System uses up to 90 % less water than wet sprinkler system for the same application with equivalent or better performance. Triggering of Water Mist System is supported by fire detection system.

Aerosol Fire Suppression System

Aerosol fire suppression is a particle-based form of fire extinction similar to gaseous fire suppression or dry chemical fire extinction. The aerosol employs a fire extinguishing agent consisting of very fine solid particles and gaseous matter to extinguish fires.

Aerosol fire suppression is compact, more cost-effective, and much simpler to maintain than other inert or clean agent systems. The system requires less space for the same area of protection delivered by CO2, FM200, or Novec 1230 systems. Able to deliver fire extinguishment without a need for piping, pressure or personal risk.

Aerosol fire extinguishing equipment is composed from the tank, which is stored with the extinguisher and also contains detection and control area. The quantity of extinguishing agent depends on the size of the protected area and protected type of risk. The principle of extinguishing is reducing the chemical reactions in the process of combustion. Reduction of oxygen in extinguishing area is not affected by using aerosol application.

Aerosol systems can be installed in a variety of areas where the cost of building infrastructure is restrictive, the area of work is confined, or the welfare of lives is crucial. Aerosol Systems are built to last; they have an average shelf life of 15years.

Cable ducts
Switchgear
Electrical equipment
Storage of flammable liquids
Plastics, etc.

Aerosol extinguishing equipment cannot be used for fires reactive metals and also materials which contain their own oxygen. For further information on Aerosol Fire Suppression Systems Design, Installation, and Servicing or if you require a quotation or free site survey please contact us for same.
