Prevent thermal runaway with FireStopper. Batteries overheat causing release of toxic, explosive gasses creating an extremely hazardous environment. Often thermal runaways set off a chain reaction causing fire, explosion, loss of equipment and possibly the facility.
FireStopper Fixed Systems are designed to detect high temperatures. Then deploy an agent which immediately knocks the temperature down preventing off-gassing which would create the runaway event.
Use FireStopper Fixed Systems to prevent thermal runaway. Keep your systems and personnel safe! Use FireStopper!
“Fire is the leading cause of commercial property damage,” noted Ronnie Gibson, vice president
and chief engineer with FM Global”.
“According to the NFPA’s latest information year (2015) there were 113,500 non-residential fires in
the U.S. at the cost of 3.1 billion dollars”
Notwithstanding, at present the likelihood of total loss due to fire is evident by the high insurance
premiums businesses are confronted with. Risk analysis by the insurance industry have elevated
the costs of insuring year to year with no end in sight.
The one component of any commercial enterprise, which can never be replaced or receive
adequate compensation, is for the loss of time. Additionally, if a fire were to occur in a warehouse
and if the event were to be controlled or even extinguished through the deployment of an
automated or hand activated system, it is certain that that the collateral damage by water or foam
would far exceed the actual value of the product(s) being warehoused.
Dumb Systems Run Until Turned Off
All fixed systems currently employed in warehousing, aviation hangars, transport applications and
others operate on the premise that once activated, the system will run continuously until such time
as it is turned off by the fire department or the individual charged with said task.
It is our belief that currently all fixed systems designed for fire protection operate under the same
principal of application until someone determines the event to be over. All fixed systems are
mechanical devises composed of piping, nozzles, detectors and control box, activated
automatically or by hand (if someone is present). The only difference in efficacy comes from the
product the system is designed to deploy.
Moreover, a fire event most likely will be born out of a variety of flammable materials. As a result,
massive amounts of water, foam and or combinations including the very hazardous dry chemicals.
FireStopper Fixed Systems
The specialized designed to fit for purpose systems combine all stainless steel construction for
durability and reliability with the most advanced detection, control & activation support mechanism.
However, what separates the FireStopper® Systems™ from all others is the Environmentally
Safe (“Green”), All Flammable Materials Effective, All Fire Class, Anti-Explosive and All
Temperature environment usable media. FireStopper® PFE-FR FFC & EXP FFC are only
available exclusively through FireStopper® branded portables and fixed systems.
