Dry Chemical Fire Suppression Systems
Dry chemical fire suppression systems are piped fire suppression systems
designed to provide full-time fire protection in high-risk areas where large,
potentially disastrous fires could occur. They provide a means of detection and
suppression for complex hazards which are too difficult and inaccessible for
manual means of fire fighting or for areas where fires could be too large and
hazardous for fire fighters to enter and fight.  Dry chemical fire suppression
systems can be engineered for both local and total-flooding applications.

Typical Applications;
  • Petroleum and petrochemical loading racks, refinery processing
    equipment, product transfer and storage areas and offshore platforms
  • Marine tanker decks, machinery spaces and loading docks
  • Manufacturing plant paint spray booths, dip and quench tanks,
    warehouses, hazardous materials storage buildings, machinery
    lubricating systems and flammable liquid storage areas
  • Machining centers
  • Metal chip collection systems
  • Aircraft parts manufacturing plants
  • Special hazard (combustible metal and/or pyrophoric material) handling
    and storage areas
  • Utility transformers, turbines and control equipment
  • Mining lubrication areas, conveyor drives and fueling areas
