Fire Suppression Systems
Riser equipment is a critical component in the fire safety infrastructure of buildings, especially high-rise structures. It comprises a system of vertical pipes designed to transport water or other fire-extinguishing agents from a ground-level source to various floors. This setup allows firefighters to effectively combat fires at multiple levels by connecting hoses directly to the riser outlets on each floor, facilitating immediate and powerful firefighting capabilities. In addition to carrying water, riser systems can also be equipped for dry risers, which are filled with air under pressure and can be quickly charged with water by the fire services upon arrival. These systems are meticulously designed and installed to comply with stringent safety standards and regulations, ensuring they can withstand the harsh conditions of a fire and provide a reliable means of suppressing fires, protecting both lives and property.
Fire Suppression Systems
Fire Suppression Systems are most commonly used in environments with heavy power equipment. Suppression systems use a combination of dry chemicals and / or wet agents to suppress equipment fires.
Fire Suppression Systems are used in areas which may be left unattended for periods of time but where it is essential that an outbreak of fire be dealt with straight away.
A Gas Fire Suppression System can provide a rapid response to a developing fire with a clean agent, leaving no residue and most importantly no equipment damage.
For these reasons Fire Suppression Systems are commonly used to protect:
- IT Server Rooms
- Switch Rooms
- High Value Storage Areas
- Electronic Equipment Rooms
- Commercial Kitchens
- Any room or premises with a lot of electrical equipment
Fire Suppression Systems have become best practice in several industries as they help control damage and loss to equipment. Common means of detection are through heat sensors, wiring, or manual detection. Having an appropriate Fire Suppression System in place can help reduce your risk and reduce your insurance costs.
