Fire fighting
We excel in maintenance & after-sales service
Firefighting is considered one of the important things in which individuals and property must be protected.
By investing in advanced systems and appropriate equipment, as well as ongoing maintenance and training, a safe environment can be ensured.
Specialized contracting companies in this field provide all solutions, from design and installation to periodic maintenance and training.
Firefighting – systems and techniques
Firefighting systems include a set of equipment and techniques that aim to prevent the spread of fire, extinguish fires, and save lives and property. Here are some of the systems used in this field:
Fire Detection Systems
Smoke detectors: They rely on smoke sensing technologies inside buildings and facilities, which allows early detection of fire.
Heat detectors: These devices are used to detect abnormal temperature rises in a specific location, thus alerting officials to take necessary action.
Gas detectors: Used to detect the presence of flammable or toxic gases (such as carbon monoxide) in the environment.
Fire Extinguishing Systems
Automatic sprinkler systems: They are considered one of the most effective fire-fighting systems, as water is automatically sprayed immediately upon detecting a fire.
Gas fire extinguishing systems: They are used in places that require protection without the use of water, such as computer rooms or facilities containing sensitive devices. The most common gases used are: FM200, INERGEN, and CO2.
Foam sprinkler systems: Foam is used to extinguish a fire by covering the fire and preventing oxygen from reaching it.
Water extinguishing systems: Water is mainly used to cool the fire and extinguish it.
Fire-fighting equipment
Fire Extinguishers:
Dry powder extinguishers: Used to combat various types of fires (Class A, B, and C).
Carbon dioxide (CO2) extinguishers: These are especially used to extinguish fires of electricity and electronic equipment.
Water and foam extinguishers: used to extinguish fires of flammable materials.
Fire hoses: used to direct water to the fire location. Contains quick connectors for easy connection.
Fire guns: Direct water precisely to extinguish a fire effectively.
Ventilation and Smoke Exhaust Fans:
Exhaust fans: Used to extract smoke and heat from enclosed spaces after a fire.
Ventilation systems: Help improve air quality and overall ventilation, especially in spaces containing sensitive equipment.
