GAS SUPPRESSION SYSTEM

Product Description

Gas suppression systems extinguish fires by removing the oxygen content to below 15% where most materials do not burn. They are activated by a smoke detection system that detects the early presence of smoke. A high-quality gas suppression system means that water is not always essential to contain fires. Churches Fire & Security have over two decades of experience in fire safety. We are experts in advising which form of fire suppression is best to use in each unique situation.You can trust that our gas suppression systems are of the highest quality. Gas suppression systems make sure that your employees, assets and data are safe when firefighting with water is not an option.Our field technicians are highly skilled, ready to provide you with a reliable gas suppression system that is fully compliant with current regulations, maintained to the highest of standards at all times.

while sprinkler systems are the most common type of fire suppression system, some applications require special hazard fire suppression systems that do not use water. These systems are unique in that they can deal with hazards where water could actually do more harm than good. Within fire science, there are several classes of fires: class a, b, c, d, and k. The fuel of the fire will dictate what can put it out. Class a fires, for example, involve wood, and a sprinkler system would work well. A class c fire, on the other hand, is an electrical fire and that may get worse by trying to suppress it with water. In summary, the specific environment will determine which system will work best.

types of fire suppression systems engineered vs. Pre-engineered fire suppression systems also need discussion. Engineered fire suppression systems will protect an entire room. Firetrace, for example, uses clean agents that are safe with electronics and can be inhaled without doing any harm to a person.
pre-engineered systems are used to protect small compartments or micro-environments. Engine compartments and electrical panels are good examples of where these types of systems would provide protection. They are also useful for suppressing fires in cnc and edm machines.
firetrace pre-engineered fire suppression systems are available in two configurations: indirect release and direct release. Watch the video below to learn about the two different firetrace pre-engineered fire suppression systems.
fire suppression agents: within pre-engineered fire suppression systems, there is a slew of agents that can be used. Class k systems typically have foam fire suppressants or other wet chemical agent options to help reduce the spread of the fire within the space. Engines, by contrast, are typically protected using abc dry chemical powder, which can effectively suppress class a, b, and c fires.
detection options: a pre-engineered system usually comes in two forms or categories.  the first is an active detection system, while the second is a non-electric detection system.  active detection requires an electrical power source, constantly seeking out heat or smoke.  a non-electric detection system relies on zero electricity
non-electric detection systems, including the firetrace pre-engineered system, utilize pneumatic detection tubing that can be installed inside and throughout hazards. Since heat rises, it works to trigger the pneumatic detection tube. If the heat or fire comes in contact with the tube, the tubing will burst open at the point of contact. It causes a pressure change in the entire system and will tell the system to discharge its fire suppression agents. Agents you can use with these systems include carbon dioxide, dry chemicals, clean agents and foam suppressants.
