ProteK extinguishing system<\/h2>\n

Where most grease accumulates in an industrial kitchen is in the hood, and grease is a possible dangerous fire starting point. With the ProteK kitchen extinguishing system, the best automatic fire extinguishing system for kitchen hoods will be incorporated. These systems can be activated either electrically or manually.<\/p>\n

The operation of the ProteK kitchen extinguishing system is simple and very effective because it has a double effect. It detects the creation of a fire when the temperature of the hood rises very quickly, at that moment, it starts the extinguishing protocol and, using the electrical activation, the first effect it has is to discharge the extinguishing agent in the form of foam, extinguishing the flames and then with that foam, its second effect is to create a surface layer that cools the area to prevent a possible reignition. This last process or effect is called saponification.<\/p>\n

Aquafog for fires<\/h2>\n

Aquafog for fires (Aquafog LPG) is equipped with misting heads designed to discharge divided water, i.e. Aquafog LPG tries to optimize water discharge by dividing its volume into tiny droplets. This technique maximizes cooling, reduces the volume of water used and reduces the damage that a large amount of water can cause to the environment, as some traditional systems already do.<\/p>\n

Aquafog LPG protection systems, also called Aquafog water mist, stand out for the way they use water by dividing its volume into very small droplets, thus becoming a triple-effect extinguishing system. Aquafog by water mist has the first effect of suffocating the fire with the steam generated at the moment the water comes into contact with the fire. Then, as a second effect, it cools the space because by shooting the water in very small drops it forms a larger heat capturing surface and finally, as a third effect, it attenuates the fire by the mist generated, which absorbs much of the heat, thus protecting the environment. This Aquafog LPG water mist system reduces the risk of fire rekindling and offers fast and effective protection against class A, B, C and F fires.<\/p>\n

Fire protection Firetrace<\/h2>\n

Firetrace is an extinguishing system easy to install near the danger point, it is an automatic fire system with the main objective to stop the start of a fire in a matter of seconds and prevent the further spread of the fire.<\/p>\n

This Firetrace fire protection system consists of a pressurised bottle of extinguishing agent connected to a polymer tube, which will burst on contact with flames releasing the extinguishing agent. This polymer tube is flexible and durable and has a high temperature accuracy which allows it to detect a situation of temperature variation of concern.<\/p>\n

Fleximecan Design<\/h2>\n

Fleximecan has designed its own detection and extinguishing system for industrial kitchens with an innovative valve that is configurable for both direct and indirect extinguishing and has two activation systems:<\/p>\n
