Fire Protection Solutions for the Pellet Industry
Headlines about fires in pellet plants are unfortunately common. It is however no coincidence that the wood pellet industry is particularly exposed to fires. In a pellet manufacturing process there are several high-risk zones where fires or dust explosions can occur. Furthermore, the pellet process environment is very demanding.
This is why Firefly offers customer-adapted solutions using IR-radiation detection in combination with water spray extinguishing to achieve an efficient protection for the pellet manufacturing process.
Firefly also offers machine protection around high risk machinery through its Quick Suppression solutions. To protect the area around the mill or pellet press, Firefly combines Quick flame detection with water mist suppression.
