About The Company
FLAMEX Inc. is a supplier of customized industrial process fire prevention and protection equipment. We specialize in the protection of facilities that handle combustible dusts that utilize pneumatic dust collection and air filtration systems. Our capabilities include the design supply installation repair and service of complete protection systems. Our system can sense a spark or burning material in the ductwork upstream of the collection equipment and suppress it with a minimal amount of water in milliseconds before it can travel further downstream and become an ignition source for a fire or explosion. This simple and straightforward prevention approach minimizes or eliminates production interruption. Our extinguishing assembly is a pre-assembled device that mounts to the duct downstream of the detector location and upstream of the inlet to a dust collector. It is made of a number of components outlined below. The fast-acting solenoid valve reacts without delay upon activation. The specially designed stainless steel nozzle creates a 180 degree water spray pattern effectively covering the duct cross section. This spray curtain is actualized inside the duct in less than 300 milliseconds and quenches the detected sparks as they pass through. The spray cycle time is pre-set and shuts off after the last spark has been extinguished to minimize the amount of water used during activation.
