There's no need to put a room underwater when putting out a fire.The primary goal of fire prevention is to focus on life safety, property protection, and the protection of operations. The basic strategy of fire prevention is to control or isolate sources of fuel and heat to prevent combustion.Small actions can have huge results. This also applies to fire suppression technology. Our fittings, pressure regulators, and components allow for forward-looking solutions for automatic fire suppression systems. And we are by no means promising too much. After all, we have developed each of our components ourselves, i.e., they are application-oriented and customized.
Property protection and small extinguishing systems (e.g., for electrical panels, server racks, engine rooms, and tool machinery) have precise and prompt effects. The key to this is represented by our fire tube (pneumatic sensor), which can be flexibly installed in the building or danger area. They are practically immune to malfunctions and do not require any external power supply. They are as simple as they are reliable.
In the event of a fire, the fire tube bursts at the hottest spot. The loss in pressure causes the valve to open and release the fire-extinguishing agent. The practical aspect of this principle is that the detection feature can also be secured in the immediate vicinity of a potential fire source. This means that a fire can be detected during its emergent phase, i.e., within the first few seconds. And this "baby fire" can then be easily extinguished, even using a small fire-extinguishing system that can be adapted to the respective danger potential.
Thermography is defined as the art of writing with heat and temperature. It is the science of capturing and analyzing thermal information from an object using a non-contact thermal imaging device.
Typical thermography surveys are not only about fixing things that break but also about preserving, protecting, and safeguarding all the assets that make your business possible.
Thermography can often rescue you from hazards related to thermal conditions.
We capture thermal images of circuit breakers, switches, and connections inside your switchboards. Deterioration is often accompanied by an increase in resistance. This rise in resistance generates heat, which is invisible to the naked eye but can be detected by an infrared camera. As the resistance to current flow increases, the temperature continues to rise until a failure occurs. This can result in significant costs and, in many cases, poses a serious fire risk.
Infrared thermography plays a crucial role in identifying a wide range of issues in your electrical system, including:
- Poor connections
- Overloaded circuits
- Load imbalances
- Faulty or improperly installed components
- Early equipment aging
Under normal operating conditions, machinery generates heat. However, excessive heat can be produced due to friction caused by inadequate lubrication, misalignment of couplings, over or under tension of belts, and bearings nearing the end of their life.
Since temperature is one of the primary indicators of a component's health, thermographic inspection is an excellent method for monitoring the condition of your mechanical plant.
Mechanical faults that can be detected through thermal imaging include:
- Lubrication issues
- Misalignments
- Load imbalances
- Suspect rollers
- Overloaded pumps
- Overheated motor axles
- Hot bearings
Electrical fires account for a significant percentage of fire insurance losses and are often the result of large-scale fire incidents. These fires are commonly caused by loose electrical connections, insulation deterioration, and poor maintenance of electrical equipment. Legislation mandates specific preventive actions, such as disconnecting, isolating, and securing any defect that poses an electrical hazard to individuals, livestock, or property.
An Electrical Safety Audit is a systematic approach to assess potential hazards and provide recommendations for improvement. It serves as an important tool for identifying standards deterioration, areas of risk or vulnerability, hazards, and potential accidents in plants, with the aim of minimizing risks and ensuring the effectiveness and relevance of safety efforts.
The primary objective of conducting an electrical safety audit is to compare standard maintenance practices with existing procedures by interviewing operating personnel and staff.
Power Quality (PQ) encompasses a broad range of issues, including voltage disturbances such as sag, swell, outages, and transients, as well as current harmonics, wiring performance, and grounding.
Conducting a Power Quality Audit can provide significant benefits for the use of embedded technology in equipment and machinery. It can lead to savings in energy bills through reduced losses, improved capacity utilization of the network, enhanced production rates and quality by minimizing interruptions, and extended lifespan of electrical networks and components.
The typical scope of a Power Quality Audit includes:
- Facility walk-through
- Load study (Load flow analysis)Harmonics analysis (vTHD & iTHD)
- Earth pit resistance measurement
- Reactive power analysis
- Line disturbances analysis (transients, sags, swells)Assessment of captive power systems
- Load distribution analysis
- Problem investigation
-Potential energy-saving opportunities
When two protective apparatus installed in series have specific characteristics that provide a defined operating sequence, they are considered to be coordinated or selective.
Relay coordination is a crucial aspect of protection system design, as coordination schemes must ensure rapid, selective, and dependable operation of relays to isolate faulted sections in the power system.
The purpose of a coordination study is to determine the characteristics, ratings, and settings of overcurrent protective devices that will ensure minimal disruption to unaffected loads when protective devices isolate a fault or overload anywhere in the system.
An arc flash is the sudden release of electrical energy through the air when a high-voltage gap exists and there is a breakdown between conductors.An arc flash emits thermal radiation (heat) and intense, bright light that can cause burns. Temperatures as high as 19,500 ˚C have been recorded. High-voltage arcs can also generate significant pressure waves by rapidly heating the air, resulting in a blast. This pressure wave can forcefully impact a worker and propel molten metal droplets from melted copper and aluminum electrical components at extremely high velocities over long distances.
The purpose of an electric arc flash hazard assessment is to determine the risk of an arc flash at each facility. It involves developing recommendations and ensuring compliance with rules and regulations to enhance safety levels and optimize resource utilization and responsibilities.
The assessment includes visual inspections to identify deviations from standard operating practices, supported by relevant standards such as NEC and CEA regulations. Arc flash analysis is conducted in accordance with IEEE 1584 and NFPA 70E standards.
Electrical hazards pose a significant risk to individuals and organizations. Ignoring these hazards can result in severe injuries, property damage, and even fatalities. It is important to identify and manage these risks to protect your people, assets, and business.
Effective risk management involves:
- Identifying electrical hazards
- Assessing the risks
- Evaluating existing control measures
- Developing additional control measures
- Implementing control measures
- Monitoring and reviewing
- By conducting a thorough risk assessment on electrical hazards, you can help ensure that your workplace is safe and that your employees are protected from potential injury or damage.
Don't let the risk of electrical hazards go unchecked. Act now to protect yourself and your organization.
