Linear fire extinguishing system
FireDeTec is a simple auto-starting system that extinguishes fire at its beginning. It is an ideal system for the protection of narrow and clearly defined spaces.
THE PRINCIPLE OF “FireDeTec”
FireDeTec is simple and safe, versatile and well performing, avoiding the risk of false alarms; so the cost/benefit ratio is very good.
The system does not depend on electrical, electronic or moving parts.
FireDeTec is a mechanical/pneumatic system. The FDT tube is approved in all CE.
THE OPERATION OF “FireDeTec”
FireDeTec uses a flexible patented tubing working as an interceptor and a nozzle at the same time, thanks to the particular polymers it is made of, see enclosure n.1.
The FDT tube can resist any weather condition, and also carburetants, oils, acids, dusting, see enclosure n.2; once in pressure, it is installed where the fire hazard is higher and fixed with special fasteners.
The extinguisher is chosen according to the extinguishing requirements and to the nature of fire.
It is possible to connect the FDT tube to tanks or cylinders of different capacities and extinguishers. These containers have got special patented and approved valves, necessary for the operation.
When fire touches FDT tube, in pressure between 12 and 18 bar with N2, this one softens at the temperature of 100-120°C, and a hole opens, thus becoming, in the direct system, a kind of sprinkler distributing the extinguisher exactly and precisely on the source of fire. In the indirect system, instead, the hole in the tube starts the diffusion of the extinguisher, from the tanks or from the cylinders, through the dedicated discharge line with nozzles.

ADVANTAGES OF “FireDeTec”
FireDeTec does not need any external source of energy; so, no costs and problems due to electric installation, cabling, etc.
FireDeTec is always working, even during energy lacking. The great flexibility of the installation methods makes the FDT tube suitable for any kind of hazard and object to be protected. The FDT tube can be easily put in narrow and restricted spaces, where other technologies are not allowed.
The simplicity of this system minimizes the possibility of malfunctioning. So, no false alarms and very easy maintenance.
The FDT tube is always active, even if covered with oil, grease, dust, or any other rubbish. The installation is very simple, so no qualified people are required.
The operation is controlled by a simple pressure gauge.
The system cannot be damaged by pushes, vibrations, electrical or electronic shocks, steam, etc., since there are no electrical mechanisms or contacts like in traditional systems – which moreover cost a lot.
FireDeTec supplies automatic, continual, and 24 hours a day protection, it cannot be damaged, it does not require supervisors; it grants an advantageous cost/benefit ratio.
