Trial extinguishing new DC Neele-Vat successful

First, aspirating smoke detectors detect smoke or temperature differences. The detection systems are linked to a fire suppression control panel, which activates the sirens. Any people present receive a warning via an electronic (30 sec.) and pneumatic alarm (also 30 sec.).

This system offers the advantage of quickly detecting an incipient fire by continuously extracting air from the compartment and analyzing it using laser technology. This gives the customer the assurance that an incipient fire can be quickly detected and extinguished to prevent any collateral damage.

During the suppression process, sensors measure negative and positive pressure, temperature, and CO₂ concentration. The room must be structurally gas-tight relative to adjacent rooms. Therefore, a test is conducted to verify that the room is sufficiently airtight to contain the extinguishing gas for 10 minutes. As soon as the suppression process begins, positive pressure builds up inside the room. The oxygen level drops to a point where materials can no longer burn or reignite. Positive-pressure vents on the roof eventually equalize the pressure.
