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.

Environmentally Friendly

– Zero Ozone Depletion Potential
– Zero Global Warming Potential
– Negligible Atmospheric Lifetime
– No gas
–So pressureless
– It doesn’t use water
– nor affects oxygen levels

Financially Interesting

– 15 year life-span
– Investment costs are lower
(No structural adjustments)
– It’s easier to maintain than traditional systems
– Simplicity, Plug & Play, Compact
– Fully Certified

More Easy to Install

– It’s easier and faster to install (E-Installer)
– It doesn’t require special conditions:
– No water-pressure, No water-access or water-storage
– No separated room for gas-cylinders, No piping

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Which industrial fire risks can be protected with the AF-X Fireblocker?
    The AF-X Fireblocker aerosol system protects various industrial assets and areas. For localized risks, smaller generators provide protection directly at the source, such as control technology, electrical cabinets, and switch cabinets. For larger spaces, AF-X Fireblocker offers systems to secure production areas, technical rooms, lithium-ion battery installations (ESS and BESS), server rooms, and storage areas. By extinguishing fires at the source, the system prevents business interruption and limits damage to the specific component that caused the fire.
  • What makes condensed aerosol a better alternative to water or gas systems in industrial settings?
    Choosing AF-X Fireblocker over traditional sprinklers or gas flooding offers significant structural and financial advantages. Unlike water or gas, AF-X Fireblocker uses a dry aerosol that requires no piping, no water-pressure, no water-storage, and no dedicated room for gas cylinders. Because the system is pressureless and compact, it does not require structural adjustments or airtight room sealing. It leaves minimal extinguishing residue, avoiding water-related damage to electrical installations, and keeps investment and maintenance costs low while leaving the room's oxygen levels completely unaffected.
  • How is the AF-X Fireblocker industrial fire suppression system activated?
    The AF-X Fireblocker system is activated electrically to block fires directly at their origin. Once a fire is detected, the dry aerosol solid is activated to release a dry aerosol that encapsulates oxygen molecules on a molecular level. Because the AF-X Fireblocker is a highly simplified, pressureless, and compact plug-and-play system, it requires only electricity to function. This design eliminates the need for complex mechanical infrastructure like high-pressure pumps or extensive distribution piping, ensuring a fast and highly reliable response to heat or electrical faults.
  • Where can I buy certified industrial fire suppression systems in the Netherlands?
    AF-X Fireblocker offers certified, high-quality industrial fire suppression systems engineered in the Netherlands. Produced in close cooperation with Aerospace Propulsion Products (APP), a member of the ArianeGroup, these systems are fully certified according to international standards such as ISO 15779, EN 15276, NFPA 2010, UL 2775, and IMO MSC/Circ.1270. To purchase these systems, customers can contact authorized exclusive distributors globally or request a custom quotation directly from AF-X Fireblocker to match their specific industrial fire safety requirements.
  • What is the lifespan and maintenance routine for aerosol fire safety systems?
    AF-X Fireblocker aerosol fire extinguishing systems are designed for a long lifespan of 15 years with minimal maintenance requirements. Unlike traditional systems that require heavy pressure testing and piping inspections, the AF-X Fireblocker only requires simple visual maintenance checks over its entire lifetime. This plug-and-play design drastically reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO) and prevents business interruption. Industrial operators can ensure continuous protection of their critical assets without the ongoing service costs associated with gas or water-based systems.
