FALCON® - Localized fire suppression systems
You are here:
FALCON® SYSTEMS is a smart and effective solution to protect equipment from a fire.
The FALCON® SYSTEMS system can be adapted to a various applications, and customized according to the demands of the customer.
The purpose is to ensure protection of the devices, restricting the damage only to the source of the flame, avoiding the diffusion of the fire in other areas.
FALCON® is a registered trademark of SAE - All rights reserved
- It is a highly reliable system because it is exclusively mechanical (with FALCON® thermosensitive tube)
- It guarantees the absence of false alarms and accidental discharges
- It does not require external power sources, eliminating all the causes of malfunction due to power failure or poor maintenance.
- It ensures rapid response times and operation 24 h x 365 days a year
- It helps protect spaces and areas not accessible to conventional fire suppression systems
- It is the fire protection that guarantees maximum respect for the environment
- It is usable in all types of industrial atmosphere, marine or aggressive
- It is insensitive to shock, vibration, corrosion
- It can be installed in various applications
- It is quickly resettable after the intervention
FALCON® system is available in two configurations:
- DIRECT System
- INDIRECT System
- DIRECT System
This is the simplest system which ensures the safety of a closed and compact size.
The flame or the high temperature generated by a possible fault burst the fire detection FALCON® which under pressure and connected to the cylinder causing its breakage.
The characteristics of the fire detection tube FALCON® are such that the breakage has dimensional characteristics similar to those of a nozzle and from this the extinguishing agent contained in the cylinder extinguishes the flame in a very short time limiting the damage only to the source of fire.
The system ensures optimum protection of other equipment in the neighboring space, since at the time of breakage of the tube the extinguishing agent will be discharged on the flame, thereby optimizing the action of fire extinguishing.
It is an automatic fire suppression system very effective.
In the configuration with pneumatic (mechanical) fire detection, the flame burns the FALCON® thermosensitive tube under pressure (nitrogen) connected to the cylinder, causing it to break and consequently the loss of gas pressure inside the tube itself, which will activate the opening of the valve.
The extinguishing agent contained in the cylinder will go through a SS pipe and nozzles which direct the extinguishing agent to the flame.
The system ensures a perfect safeguard for the equipment and the surrounding environment, thereby preventing the spread of the fire to other areas.
