Reacton: Fire Suppression system installation for CNC machinery
In this FIREX Tech Talks, Reacton Fire Suppression runs through a typical installation of a Reacton 4kg indirect clean agent suppression system in a CNC machine, using 3M Novec 1235 protection fluid that is delivered through a single nozzle. The company explains its automatic fire suppression systems have been tested to rigorous standards and certifications, and are able to automatically detect then knock down a fire before it has an opportunity to take hold.
During the video, Reacton takes viewers through the installation process of one of its suppression systems in a CNC machine, beginning with fixing the initial bracket, through to best practice methods of fixing the nozzles, tubes and the manual override system.
Questions asked from the audience included:
What are the most common errors you’ve found when installing the system?
When you say ‘clean agents’, what does this mean?
Why is it so important for a suppression system to be installed with CNC machines?
Will the suppression system damage any of the components within the CNC machine if activated?
Can the system be integrated with an alarm/activation system to notify the appropriate person if it was activated?
