Fire Suppression Systems

Clean, Dependable Fire Suppression

Carbon Dioxide fire suppression systems deliver clean, dependable suppression in seconds and can be incorporated into collection processes to provide effective fire protection.

Overview

Kidde Fire Systems, a global leader in fire protection, has assembled convenient standardized fire suppression packages for many Donaldson Torit Dust Collectors. 

These packages include Kidde High Pressure CO2 systems and optional smoke detectors. Customized Kidde fire suppression packages for unique applications or collectors are also available.In addition to the packages offered from Kidde Fire Systems, Donaldson can offer mitigation equipment options such as Power Interrupt panels or inlet/outlet fire dampers. 

The classic fire triangle consists of an ignition source, a fuel, and an oxidizer –  all of which are needed to produce a fire.

Unfortunately, it is often easy to ​find all three in many manufacturing facilities around various dust collection points and in collectors. 

Sparks, heat, or embers from many processes can become ignition sources.  The dust, fume, or mist being produced and collected may provide fuel. Air used to transport dust, fume, or mist to a collector then provides the last component, an oxidizer.

Features

HP CO2 fire suppression systems are designed to minimize the impact from a fire to the collector and to the surrounding area. The HP CO2 fire suppression system follows the design practices in NFPA 12, which calls for the flooding of a collector with CO2 to a 75% concentration. The HP CO2 fire suppression system typically uses one, two or three CO2 cylinders piped to a discharge nozzle mounted in the collector or the inlet duct.​
