AFEX has
responded to the increasing need for Automatic Fire Suppression Systems. The AFEX
detection system relies on a point thermal type sensor that is shock and vibration
resistant and is installed in and adjacent to fire hazard areas. Once exposed to
continuous temperatures of 300° F*, the AFEX Sensor closes and completes the electrical
circuit to the squib which then activates the system. The detection system is energized by
the equipment’s power supply and no additional battery is required. When necessary to monitor the power supply, detection loop integrity, and
squib firing circuit, we incorporate the AFEX Circuit Monitor to
provide audible and visual alarms along with operator controlled delay functions. We have
avoided inappropriate technologies such as microprocessors by designing a solid state
monitor that interfaces with the AFEX detection package and withstands the most abusive
environments.
AFEX automatic detection is an integral part of your complete
AFEX Fire Suppression System, or can be an add-on to your existing manual system.
Together, the monitor and detection package, represent a significant advancement in the
protection of your mobile equipment.
