Industrial fire suppression system

AF-X Fireblocker - Environmentally friendly fire extinguishing system

Fire protection and Industry. Business continuity is essential!

Industrial fire suppression system

AF-X Fireblockers extinguish fire without the use of water and oxygen expulsion (gas). This provides significant benefits for you as an end user or installer. Due to the simplicity of the system, the costs for installation and maintenance are low. As a result, the purchase of an AF-X system is in many cases cheaper than another fire extinguishing systems.

HOW AEROSOL EXTINGUISHING WORKS
industrial fire suppression system

Aerosol fire protection

AF-X Fireblocker is a Dutch manufactured Industrial fire suppression system of the highest quality. The aerosol extinguishing generators can be used in various areas within the industrial sector. The smaller AF-X Fireblockers are also suitable for securing objects.

Fire risk

The threat of fire in a manufacturing plant caused by either accident or a fault, is a risk factor that needs to be eliminated to ensure personnel safety and business productivity.

Fire Safety at the Source

By protecting the sources of fire with AF-X Fireblocker, you significantly reduce the risk of (damage from) fire. Short circuits and overheating are usually the cause of fires and this only happens in a few places within your company. The fire is extinguished directly at the source. The fire damage will be limited to the part that caused the fire.

Minimal consequential damage 

The small generators are suitable for fire protection at the source. Think of control technology, control cabinets and electrical cabinets.
Also, we have large generators that are suitable for securing areas such as production areas, technical areas, server and storage areas.

Extinguish at molecular level

Aerosol extinguishes at the molecular level. You are probably familiar with the so-called “fire triangle”. What an extinguishing aerosol actually does is “encapsulate” the oxygen molecules. It does not expel oxygen, it just encapsulates the molecules. As a result, the fire can no longer use the oxygen, but at the same time this oxygen remains in the room so that you can simply breathe it in.

Cheaper than another systems

AF-X Fireblockers extinguish fire without the use of water and oxygen expulsion (gas). This provides significant benefits for you as an end user or installer. Due to the simplicity of the system, the costs for installation and maintenance are low. As a result, the purchase of an AF-X system is in many cases cheaper than another fire extinguishing systems.

A few things we’re great at in industrial fire suppression systems

The fight against fire has been fundamentally improved by the use of the aerosol Industrial fire suppression system. The dry aerosol is a solid that, once activated, blocks the fire in its origin.

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • How does the AF-X Fireblocker system work for industrial fire suppression?
    The AF-X Fireblocker system extinguishes fires using advanced aerosol technology, without using water or oxygen-displacing gas. The dry aerosol 'encapsulates' oxygen molecules at a molecular level, preventing the fire from using oxygen to burn. Simultaneously, the ambient air remains breathable, increasing safety for those present. This method is highly effective and minimizes collateral damage, as no extinguishing residues from water or chemical gas are left behind. Furthermore, the system is easy to install and low-maintenance, resulting in lower operational costs and business reliability.
  • What benefits does an AF-X Fireblocker system offer for industrial applications?
    An AF-X Fireblocker system provides various benefits for industrial environments. It is environmentally friendly with zero ozone depletion potential and zero global warming potential, as no water or harmful gases are used. Financially, the system is attractive due to a 15-year lifespan, lower investment costs, and simple maintenance, resulting in a cheaper total solution. Installation is also quick and easy thanks to its compact plug & play design, eliminating the need for water pipes, gas cylinders, or structural modifications. This contributes to rapid implementation and minimizes disruption to business processes.
  • For which specific industrial spaces and objects is AF-X Fireblocker suitable?
    AF-X Fireblocker is designed for a wide range of industrial applications. The smaller generators are ideal for fire protection directly at the source, such as in control technology, switch cabinets, and electrical cabinets, where short circuits or overheating can cause fire. Additionally, larger generators are available for securing entire areas, including production halls, technical rooms, server, and storage areas. This allows the system to extinguish the fire directly at its inception, limiting damage to the part that caused the fire and ensuring business continuity, which is crucial in industrial environments.
  • What are the advantages of a fire suppression system without water or gas?
    A fire suppression system that does not use water or gas, such as an aerosol system, offers significant advantages. Firstly, there is minimal to no collateral damage to equipment or inventory, which is often the case with water or gas systems. This is crucial for sensitive industrial environments and technical installations. Secondly, the oxygen in the room remains breathable, increasing safety for individuals and making evacuation less urgent. Moreover, such systems are often more environmentally friendly, easier to install without complex piping or storage tanks, and have lower maintenance costs, resulting in a cost-effective and sustainable solution for fire safety.
  • How can I ensure business continuity for my industrial facility regarding fire safety?
    To ensure business continuity in an industrial facility, it is essential to effectively eliminate fire risks and secure potential fire sources. This means investing in a reliable fire suppression system that intervenes quickly and efficiently at the source, such as in the event of electrical failures or overheating. A system that tackles the fire directly and limits damage to the affected part prevents large-scale production downtime and material losses. Choosing a low-maintenance, environmentally friendly, and easy-to-install system contributes to a long-term solution that protects both personnel safety and operational processes from undesirable interruptions.
