This system is one of the most effective among all means intended for the elimination of fires in the premises of economic and industrial purposes. Bonpet fire extinguishing devices contain a special mixture, which the company experts call unique among similar ones.
Manufacturer Information
The development of the active substance for the elimination of fires was entrusted to a group of Japanese scientists. Later, the European concern Bonpet bought a patent for this invention and began to produce a new fire fighting device under its own brand. Virtually unparalleled in the world, the composition of the substance, combined with the availability of exclusive rights to its use, allowed the company to take a leading position in the industry.
In Russia, no other manufacturer makes such modular installations. Bonpet fire extinguishing devices have a combined effect on the source of fire. Representatives of the company say that they primarily focus on the quality of products. Regardless of the composition used, the modular design itself meets all the requirements for a long and efficient operation.
The principle of operation of the device
There are two main ways to enable the installed device. At its core, the device is a suspension module, and the operation takes place in automatic mode. In the first case, the thermal lock on the sprinkler is destroyed at the moment when the built-in temperature sensors are triggered. When the critical temperature in the room is reached, the module starts immediately.
In the second variant, the principle of operation of the Bonpet fire extinguishing device is based on the fact that the trigger mechanism receives an alert from a fire alarm. The destruction of the thermal lock is forced. For the successful operation of the device according to the second scheme, it is required to first connect the module with a fire alarm in the room. On the other hand, the fire extinguishing system can operate autonomously and independently. Activation is performed from a special signal control panel.
Product Advantages
Among the design features, the following points can be distinguished:
- ease of installation of the suspension module;
- the exceptional effectiveness of the fire extinguishing method used;
- the possibility of fully autonomous functioning of the system;
- failure-free internal mechanisms to start the extinguishing procedure;
- safety for people due to the absence of chemical reactions after spraying;
- lack of need for external power supplies.
It should also be noted that the active substance used in the Bonpet fire extinguishing device has successfully passed accreditation at the institutes of Russia and Europe. Maintenance consists of an annual visual inspection of the condition of the product, as well as checking the case pressure. You can verify the data thanks to the built-in indicator on the device itself. The gas-powder module needs to be recharged every five years. If a malfunction was found, then the contents should be updated immediately after the device is repaired.
Where can I apply the module
The product is quite multifunctional and allows you to eliminate several types of fires at once. Like other gas-powder fire extinguishing devices, Bonpet features suggest a successful fight against open fire of hazard classes A, B, C and E. Thus, eliminating fires is allowed in the following types of rooms:
- parking lots and car repair shops;
- warehouses with solid combustible materials;
- premises with electronic equipment, including server rooms, computer classes and offices;
- storages of oil and oil products, as well as substances containing alcohol;
- buildings and premises in which gas cylinders are stored.
In various warehouses, a person’s presence is usually minimized, which means that the Bonpet fire extinguishing device will be the best choice among all the options. Automatic fire extinguishing systems are capable of preventing the re-occurrence of open flames within 24 hours. As a rule, such a period is sufficient for human intervention and successful elimination of the fire.
How to install
A metal bracket should be supplied with the device, with the help of which it is fixed on the wall. The capsule should be placed horizontally. If the product is mounted to the ceiling, then there is not much difference in orientation. However, it is necessary to determine in advance the location of likely foci of fire.
Experts have calculated that the most effective location of the product is on the wall 10 centimeters from the ceiling directly above the site of the alleged fire. In long corridors and large rooms, Bonpet fire extinguishing devices are best placed evenly around the entire perimeter. Installation can be done by connecting the device to the BAUP activation unit. The device is connected via a standard loop to the automatic ignition elimination system or to an already installed alarm.
Installation tips
The Bonpet fire extinguishing device manual also mentions the dependence of the capsule arrangement on the type of premises in which the installation is carried out. See recommendations in the list below.
- Shops with small sales rooms, construction change houses, storage rooms, non-residential attics and living rooms. It is assumed that there are no flammable substances. One capsule is used for every 8-10 square meters. m. premises.
- Archives, varnishing and drying chambers, printing houses, boiler houses and pumping stations. You should place one device for every 6 square meters. m. premises.
- Mobile base stations, server rooms, computer classes and offices, garbage collection chambers, autoclaves and various laboratories. Products are being installed at a distance of about 4 square meters. m from each other.
Operational Features
According to the classification, the Bonpet fire extinguishing device can be attributed to products with a combined method of eliminating fire sources. In the product in question, methods of exposure to fire with gas, film and cooling are simultaneously applied. High mobility and low weight up to one kilogram make it possible to easily install and, if necessary, move the device.
Both fully automatic operation and manual extinguishing by throwing are allowed. All oxygen is quickly removed from the fire extinguishing zone, and the burning surface begins to cool. The protective film prevents re-ignition and is valid for one day from the moment the device is activated.
