Spark Detection/Extinguishing Systems

These spark detection and extinguishing systems provides safety for your production. As a preventative measure, they can reduce your risk of fires and dust explosions by extinguishing sparks and embers before they reach the dust collection filters, silos, or bins. Sensors detect the spark or ember infrared energy and the system automatically activate programmable countermeasures: extinguishment, deluge, abort gates, diversion gates, or automatic machinery shutdown. The extinguishment immediately releases a fine mist of water downstream, extinguishing sparks and embers without interrupting production and greatly reduces risk of personnel injury, equipment damage, and downtime. Improvements in plant safety and insurance risk are also important benefits. The systems are outlined in NFPA 69, 654, and 664 standards and Factory Mutual approved.
