Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Fire protection is essential in power plants and substations due to the presence of high-voltage equipment, fuel systems, transformers, and battery storage, all of which are susceptible to fire. A single incident can lead to blackouts, equipment damage, or even safety hazards for personnel and the public.
For substations and transformers, clean agent systems (FM-200, Novec 1230) or inert gas systems (IG-541) are ideal for suppressing electrical fires without damaging sensitive components. CO₂ systems are also used in unmanned areas for their fast-acting capabilities.
- Step 1: Fire Detection – Advanced smoke, heat, and arc flash detectors identify early fire signs.
- Step 2: Automatic Suppression Activation – The system releases suppression agents (CO₂, foam, or water mist) to extinguish the fire.
- Step 3: Fire Containment – Fire barriers and ventilation systems prevent further spread.
- Step 4: Emergency Shutdown – In case of severe fire risks, automatic shutdown systems prevent major damage. “Our systems are designed for fast response to minimize downtime and protect infrastructure”
BESS requires advanced protection against thermal runaway, gas release, and explosion risks. The best solutions include aerosol suppression, clean agent systems, and early gas/temperature detection units, especially in lithium-ion battery containers.
No. Clean agents like FM-200 or Novec 1230 and inert gases are non-corrosive, leave no residue, and are safe for control rooms, servers, and automation panels. They are specifically chosen for electronic fire protection.
Yes. High-pressure water mist systems are highly effective in cooling high-temperature machinery like turbines and generators. They suppress fire while using minimal water, making them safe for areas with rotating equipment and electronics.
