CNC MACHINERY FIRE SUPPRESSION

We recently installed our Clean Agent Automatic Fire Suppression System on a Star SR-38R, providing advanced protection against potential fire hazards.

 

How Fireward’s Clean Agent System Works

Our Clean Agent system uses Reacton 1230 to suppress fires rapidly without leaving any residue. The agent is released through a direct system, activated by a strategically placed pneumatic detection tube. When exposed to flame, the tube bursts, releasing pressure and delivering the suppression agent precisely through the rupture point.

System highlights:

  • Clean Agent (Reacton 1230) – Quick and effective fire suppression with no residue

  • Pneumatic Detection Network – Strategically placed tubes burst under heat, triggering suppression

  • Direct Release System – Agents delivered through ruptured tubes for targeted suppression

 

Additional Features:
Pressure Switch – Monitors system pressure to ensure functionality
Manual Actuator – Allows operators to activate the system manually in emergencies

Fire Risks in CNC Machinery

The Star SR-38R contains moving parts, flammable materials, and potential electrical faults – all of which increase the risk of fire. Fitting an automatic suppression system helps protect the machine, avoid downtime, and reduce potential repair costs.
