Ceiling Mounted Automatic (M Series) Clean Agent Fire Extinguishers
Ceasefire Ceiling Mounted Automatic M Series Clean Agent Fluoroketone (FK-5-1-12) Extinguishers are self-contained units with thermal sensors that detect the rise in the temperature of the area and activate automatically, even when there is no one present, ensuring that the fire is brought under control early and efficiently.
These automatic extinguishers are designed to be - Intuitive (Self Activated), Responsive (Monitorable) and Scalable (Expandable).
The modular nature of these extinguishers make them retrofittable and can instantly be mounted in ceiling spaces, without consuming the productive floor space of the premises and without having to undertake any structural changes in the space.
Powered by Clean Agent Fluoroketone (FK-5-1-12) these extinguishers cause no collateral damage and leave no residue while putting out the flames. Being Fluroketone based these are safe to be used in confined spaces with human presence.
The biggest strength of the Ceasefire Ceiling Mounted Automatic M Series Extinguisher however is their ability to become monitorable and scalable.
By opting for a Pressure Switch these extinguishers can be integrated to third-party devices to become monitorable. On the other hand these extinguishers can also be used as building blocks to form a scalable total flooding solution by opting for Metron Actuators and connecting the units with fire detection devices and a control panel.
a) Making the M Series Automatic Extinguishers Monitorable:
With the presence of a pressure port in these extinguisher units, these can be made monitorable by opting for a Pressure Switch and can be integrated to any third-party device such as a Fire Alarm Panel, a stand-alone Siren Strobe or a Building Management System for monitoring purpose. This enables users to not only get an alert on activation of these units in case of fire but also do preventive-maintenance monitoring of the units.
b)Powerful Clean Agent:
Powered by Clean Agent Fluoroketone (FK-5-1-12) these ceiling mounted extinguishers cause no collateral damage and leave no residue while putting out the flames. Being Fluroketone based these are safe to be used in confined spaces with human presence.
c) Size:
Sizes available in 2kg, 5kg, 10kg & 15kg
d) Scaling up to create an M Series Total Flooding Solution:
The Ceasefire M Series Ceiling Mounted extinguishers can be used as building blocks to form an integrated total flooding solution.
This is done by opting for Metron Actuators that need to be installed at the Nozzle heads of the M Series extinguishers which can be further connected with a network of detectors via a control panel to form a formidable total flooding solution.
The detection module of the system can be configured using a wide variety of detectors such as smoke detectors, beam detectors, heat detectors, or others depending upon the fire risk faced by the premises.
The system acts on the principle of cross-zoning. Only when two or more detectors from two
separate zones confirm the fire episode to the control panel, the panel sends an activation signal to the system. The activation signal is sent to the Metron Actuator in the form of an electrical impulse. On receiving this electrical impulse a metal pin is fired inside the actuator that breaks the glass vial placed at the discharge point of extinguishing units, triggering the discharge of the agent.
What makes such a system configuration truly versatile is that all extinguishing units are triggered simultaneously to achieve total flooding results.
Configuring a total flooding solution using Ceasefire M Series Extinguishers for any premises requires a design process to be followed as defined in the system’s manual.
- Automatic actuation: Detects fire through thermal sensor and activates automatically.
- Easy To Install: Retrofittable and can be installed with least amount of structural changes in a premises.
- Highly Cost Effective: Does not require extensive fitments it works out to be price competitive.
- Monitorable Option: These automatic extinguishers can be upgraded to become monitorable by opting for a pressure switch and integrating it with third-party devices.
- Certification: BSI tested, PED and UKCA-PED approved.
- Tamper Proof Design: Being ceiling mounted the extinguisher is tamper proof.
- Requires Minimal Fittings: Does not require an extensive network of pipes, fittings and ducts for installation.
- Saves Space: Agent cylinders are ceiling mounted units that do not require any floor space.
- Electrical Actuation Option: The units can be activated electrically by opting for metron actuators and connecting them to a network of detectors via a control panel to be configured as a Total Flooding System.
