Machine tool fire extinguishing system

FIREPRO - FIRE PROTECTION OF MACHINE TOOLS Cooling oil mist, flammable liquid vapors, or combustible waste generated during the machining process, in combination with an initiation source, can lead to the violent ignition of flammable mixtures. The ensuing fire will cause devastating damage to the machine equipment. FIREPRO automatic fire extinguishing system is the efficient protection against devastating consequences by suppressing the fire in its initial stage. The FIREPRO system has been developed for CNC machines, such as coordinate grinders, milling machines, or electric spark machines. Its fundamental purpose is to stop and extinguish a fire after its ignition point. The FIREPRO system for fire protection of CNC machines complies with the EN 19353 standard. SYSTEM FUNCTIONS CNC machine's working space is constantly monitored by optical and temperature detectors. In the event of a fire, the control panel triggers an alarm, automatically switches off the relevant technologies, and opens the valve of the fire extinguisher cylinder. The system activates the firefighting intervention in a few milliseconds. Extinguishing takes place directly in the working space of the CNC machine. ADVANTAGES the system's short reaction time connection to the control system of the CNC machine automatic monitoring of detectors against pollution high extinguishing efficiency and cooling effect of the extinguishing agent CAUSES OF FIRE IN CNC MACHINES flammable refrigerants and formation of flammable mixtures electrical defect friction and heat caused by machining damage to CNC machine
