Main Concept and Description of the Firetrace Fire Suppression System
Firetrace automatic fire suppression systemis a new invention in the fire protection industry, It is a simple, easy installation and highly reliable stand-alone auto fire extinguishing system, it works without any power supply, heat detectors, or smoke detectors, without complicated pipelines, it just works with a pressurized fire detecting tube, and can extinguishing an initial fire rapidly, accurately, it has functions of fire suppression and fire alarming, it is a super fire-man to put out fire at its early stage.
It minimizes the loss and damage from fire.
It reduces our engineering and installation costs to the maximum extent.
It is environmentally friendly and does not have a bad effect on the human body.
It is direct-to-source fire protection and can protect valuable equipment and precision instruments very well.
As a new-style fire extinguishing equipment, it has solved a fire protection problem in electrical equipment, fördelningscentraler(växlar) control panels, in which location easy to cause fire.
Fire trace heat-sensing automatic fire suppression system, another name we called “fire detection tube fire suppression system”, is made up of a pressurized cylinder, cylinder head valve, siphon, gauge, and fire tube which can release extinguishing agent from the cylinder, its working principle is to use a fire detecting tube which is connect with storage pressurized cylinder to detect fire and can transmit fire extinguishing agent(media) from the storage cylinder to the protection zone (protection object). when a fire happens, at its rated temperature of160 grader Celsius, the fire-detecting tube will automatically blast because of the pressure inside the tube, within a few seconds or tens of seconds the fire extinguishing agent will reach the fire protection zone by fire tube or by another additional metal releasing tube to suppress the fire.
for the protection of more big objects, we suggest using a metal or brass tube to help transmit a fire extinguishing agent to the protection zone, we call this “indirect type“.
for the protection of smaller objects, we suggest using this non-metallic fire detection tube to help transmit a fire extinguishing agent to the protection zone, we call this “direct type“.
The fire tube is also made with particular materials, and the fire tube should be tough, anti-corrosive, and leak-proof. it should have an effective heat-sensing function, it blasts to release an extinguishing agent at a rated temperature (normally at 160±10 degrees Celsius), and it also transmits a fire alarm signal.
The fire tube suppression system is excellent in the fire protection industry, especially for a particular application, such as in electrical cabinets, control panels, kitchen hoods, bussmotorer, CNC-maskiner, and machinery equipment.
It is a popular and hot-sale fire suppression system because of the following advantages:
1. Rapid
it suppresses fire at a very fast speed, from fire start to fire suppression stage, to suppress fire it just requires a few or tens of seconds, it suppresses fire at its early stage, it can trace fire flame and prevent the fire before the fire accident happened, it brings a completely brand-new concept of fire protection.
2. S Shape Tube-Wrap
this tiny, smart, and flexible fire detection tube suppression system can be applied in big spaces and small complicated equipment, it is 360° dead space free fire protection, and it is applied in a variety of machinery and business and commercial equipment, the S shape fire detection tube is wrapped anywhere inside the protection object or protection zone.
3. It Has Many Features
One fire detection tube system device normally can cover several protection objects.
It is cost-effective, with less investment for a larger fire suppression effect. mainly reflected in:
lätt att installera, and short installation time.
“S” shape tube wrap is easy to wrap the fire detection tube.
Don’t require any agent storage cylinder room, so it is space-saving.
A fire tube is a non-metallic detection tube free from the interference of oily fume, damm, electrostatic, and electromagnetism.
It will not cause any false alarm.
It is easy to do system debugging and maintenance.
4. Environmentally Friendly
no need for personnel emergency evacuation, because of:
releasing fire extinguishing agent directly to the fire flame (source of fire), the system reaction is accurate and direct-to-source.
gaseous fire extinguishing agents have little bad effect on the human body.
Design to suppress fire for the protected objects, it is one-by-one fire protection.
High extinguishing efficiency.
Fire Detection Tube device system compares with conventional fire suppression system
For protection objects, a conventional suppression system is applied in a bigger enclosure space, to total flooding the whole protection room and take the whole room as a protection zone, it will not be able to solve the fire risk caused by the electrical equipment in the room; fire detection tube system can both applied in bigger and small enclosure space, like power distribution cabinet, kontrollpanel, telecommunication cabinet.
For project installation, conventional ones need heat detectors and smoke detectors to detect fire and need to connect with a fire alarm system, not able to reach small spaces, the pipeline is complicated and needs cylinder storage space, their installation period is long and not cost-effective; where fire tube system does not need to connect to any fire alarm system and fire detection system, the fire tube itself is a fire detector and an automatic fire suppression device, the fire tube wire is easy to place inside any cabinet equipment and not complicated, also easy to install, can reach to any small space and small equipment, with short installation period, don’t need any complex cylinders room to place cylinders.
For Maintenance and Operation, the conventional system needs a fire power supply but a fire detecting tube isn’t needed, conventional systems easily get shocked and affect their operation function in which fire detection tube system won’t, conventional systems need a specialist to make maintenance but fire tube system don’t need to have.
For a safety factory, a conventional fire suppression device and its system designed to flood the projection room, a lot of fire extinguishing agents are used, when the agent is discharging then the personnel must evacuate, The fire tube system is special for the protected objects, fire extinguishing agent is less, when it is discharging there is little hurt on the human body and the personnel do not have to evacuate.
For fire suppression effectiveness, conventional systems work with a fire control panel and other fire alarm components, when a suppression agent runs out there is a 30-second time delay in extinguishing the fire, so its activation speed is slower, which the fire detection tube system can immediate to suppress the fire within a few seconds, its fire suppression activation speed is very fast.
Construction and engineering costs, the conventional ones have complex piping systems, so their construction and engineering costs are super high, in which the fire detection tube does not have such a pipeline system and is easy to install, its construction and engineering costs are very low.
Two Conclusions
So after comparing, we get below 2 points of conclusion:
The conclusion: when the fire protection room’s area and volume are big and many protected objects are over there, then it is more suitable to use a conventional fire suppression system as a fire protection solution; when the fire protection room’s area and volume is big but less protected objects are over there, then it is more suitable to use fire detection tube system as a fire protection solution.
Conclusion two: when the fire protection room’s area and volume are small, like the electrical cabinet, and control panel, then at these objects it is not suitable to install a conventional fire suppression system, it is better to use a fire detection tube, as it is economically.
To use a Fire detection tube automatic fire suppression system needs to meet the following requirements:
The protected space should be enclosed and should be a single protection zone, we can take electrical cabinet equipment with the enclosure to be one single protection zone.
It is only for protection of the inner of the protected object, and the outer space around the protected object has combustible material, this is the basic requirement for using fire detecting tube system.
