Industrial Fire Suppression Systems

Why do Industrial Companies Need Fire Suppression Systems?

As we’ve discussed above, the powering of the machinery and plant-based materials within this field can take a lot in order to work effectively. Knowing this, staff members are always protected by wearing masks and any other personal protective equipment they can find when performing their job.

Although they are professionals, some may neglect how dangerous it can be if something goes terribly wrong. Thus, being practical by expanding the safety equipment in your workplace can be of no harm.

An industrial fire suppression system will not only be able to detect and suppress a fire before you’ve even realised it's a potential threat but the plethora of techniques used to disintegrate the flames all attack the main parts of the fire triangle. 

Installing fire protection systems can save lives and prevent injuries, along with being able to save your expensive equipment - meaning you can get back to running your business 24/7 in as little time as possible. 

Productivity is crucial in the industrial realm as the more output generated by the industrial company means the greater goods/ services, leisure and health we have in our future endeavours.

If this were to come to a halt, the public would have limited access to the activities we enjoy and damaged career paths/ current job roles.

Best Fire Suppression Systems For Industrial Businesses

MEP Fire is experienced in integrating a selection of fire suppression systems for industrial applications that attack each component of the fire triangle with great significance.

Our professional and experienced team understand that there are a multitude of ways to go when suppressing fires and each of the systems we install works expertly to guarantee that no human intervention is needed in case of an emergency. 

To assure that you have an industrial fire protection system that performs optimally, here is a list of high-performing fire suppression agents that will assist you:

Water Mist Systems

Although water is a key component of this automatic fire suppression system, the water mist system will generate less water than a fire sprinkler system. The benefit of us designing and installing this system for you is that each system will be delivered in line with current standards, be accompanied by the correct certification and satisfy all stakeholders concerned. 

As heat is decreased and the oxygen supply limited whilst the extinguishing system suppresses the fire, you can expect that your staff can evacuate efficiently whilst the agent works on keeping your well-engineered, expensive equipment secure for future usage.

Detection Tube Systems

Next is a detection tube system which is a tube that acts as a fire detector and fire suppressant in one. A unique feature of this system is that it can be used in alignment with the scenario. Therefore, when a hazard occurs, the suppressant agent is set to match the level of the hazard.

In the industrial business environment, if an unfortunate fire were to break out - it would typically be a serious hazard compared to many industries due to the power that the majority of the machinery and plant-based tools need. Systems can be configured with control panels or without depending on the situation which can be a massive advantage for tube-based systems as there is no necessity for external power supplies making them ideal for remote areas.

Inert Gas Systems

More environmentally friendly than the other models, this design will have most fires extinguished in around 60 seconds. 

As they have zero global warming potential (GWP), if staying environmentally friendly is an important factor for you, along with being exceptionally sufficient in a short period of time - this is the fire suppression system you should go with.
