THIS IS HOW YOU PROTECT PERSONS AND PROPERTY, AVOID PRODUCTION LOSSES AND MINIMISE SECONDARY DAMAGE.

Safety first – fire protection plays an important role in each production.  The goal of fire protection is to effectively protect persons and property against the dangers and effects of fire.  Furthermore, it is necessary to minimise material damage that is caused by production interruptions or loss of customers.  HOWEVER, the risk of fire is even encouraged unconsciously. In order to optimise profit, production facilities become more and more efficient, and production losses are inacceptable.  But fire and explosions are a risk factor in many processes.

Damage is caused in downstream plant areas and not in the place of origin of the sparks (e.g. dryer, burner, sander etc.). Therefore a spark extinguishing system is the safest solution.  The GreCon Spark Extinguishing detects ignition sources wherever material is pneumatically or mechanically extracted or transported. Sparks or glowing embers are laminated even before sever damage is caused.  GreCon spark detection and extinguishment systems substantially contribute to an elimination of such varied danger sources. As preventive fire protection for filter systems and silos in numerous production plants, they have been part of the standard equipment in the area of safety technology for decades to protect mechanical or pneumatic conveying systems. Spark detection and extinguishment systems can detect and eliminate ignition sources before fires or explosions occur.
