Reduce Your Risk of Dust Fires and Explosions with the industry leading Spark Detection Systems from GreCon

Extinguishment

GreCon extinguishing assemblies immediately extinguish
sparks and burning embers before they can reach the filter,
thereby reducing the risk of fires and explosions.

Water extinguishment does not adversely affect
the filter media.  One to three nozzle
assemblies are available in either
brass or stainless steel.

(optional non-water
suppressant methods
can also be considered).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Principle

 

GreCon extinguishing assemblies release an atomized water spray

Upon sensor detection of infrared radiation and activation by the Control Console, GreCon extinguishing assemblies release an atomized water spray to immediately extinguish any sparks or embers.

Special nozzle design, when coupled with required water pressure creates the most effective atomized extinguishment spray pattern.
