Safe processing even at high temperatures
With a fire protection system from Nextech, you can effectively prevent and combat fires and explosions with detection and extinguishing tailored to the metal industry.
We offer a comprehensive product portfolio of fire and explosion protection components from a number of Europe’s leading manufacturers in the field. All our products are tested and approved to the highest safety standards by Europe’s leading testing bodies, including VdS and TÜV. Our explosion protection systems are also ATEX approved.
Tailored system provides optimum protection for the metal industry
We have many years of experience in fire and explosion protection for the metal industry, and distribute some of the world’s most advanced protection systems. In each case, we carry out a comprehensive risk assessment of all potential risk areas in the company and then draw up a safety plan specifying the components – spark detectors, infrared/thermal monitoring, smoke detectors, spark and fire extinguishing components, explosion suppression systems, etc. – that will provide maximum protection in the plant in question. Components are selected based on the condition of each risk zone – e.g. bright/dark, dust level, temperature level, optimal extinguishing agent, etc.
The system automatically identifies and extinguishes ignition sources – our products include GreCon’s spark detection and extinguishing systems, which in many cases will eliminate 99% of all ignition sources before they develop into a fire or explosion, as well as advanced thermal monitoring that can identify e.g. transport or storage units in the operations that are at risk of overheating.
Specific risk areas that should be safeguarded include:
- Filters at foundries or smelters
- Chemical processes
- Ore crushers
- Welding processes
- Presses
- Extraction and ventilation systems
- Grinders
A fire and explosion protection solution from Nextech includes:
- The world’s fastest spark detection and extinguishing system
- Advanced fire detection with rapid alarm and extinguishing
- Rapid extinguishing with targeted extinguishing agent (e.g. gas, foam, water or diversion of material flow via dampers)
- Ability to manually initiate extinguishing as required
- Effective venting or suppression of explosions
- Accurate detection of each incident of sparks, embers or other ignition sources so that risk areas can be identified and remediated
- Remote visual monitoring of areas at risk of overheating.
SERVICE AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT
Naturally, we offer a fixed service and support agreement, so you can always trust that your fire and explosion protection solution is working efficiently and stably.
