anfrage@degesa.deFire protection in warehouses is particularly important for companies due to the often high property values involved. It is not uncommon for insurance companies to demand extensive fire protection measures, as the damage caused by fires and loss of productivity is considerable.
Spatial optimisation is a priority for warehouses for economic reasons, which is why automatic storage systems and storage lifts are so frequently used. However, these present particular challenges in terms of fire protection, as they are not accessible to people and often reach enormous room heights, which makes fire detection considerably more difficult.
In archives, the value of stored goods is often not measured by their material value, but by their uniqueness. Once destroyed, files or props are irretrievably destroyed. Fire protection measures are therefore often limited to organisational fire protection, as many solutions cause as much damage as a fire itself. Nevertheless, there are always cases of fires in archives in which enormous damage is caused by malfunctions of, for example, lighting systems or neighbouring technical equipment.
Automatic fire suppression systems are ideal for optimising fire protection in warehouses, storage systems or archives. However, the problem for operators of warehouses and archives is often that classic sprinkler systems would cause too much damage if triggered and gas extinguishing systems entail enormous maintenance costs.
A better option is the use of aerosol fire suppression systems, which cause no damage to the warehouse or the stored goods and are extremely low-maintenance compared to other technologies.
When an aerosol fire suppression system is triggered, the entire warehouse is flooded with a potassium aerosol, which interrupts the chain reaction of fire and extinguishes it within a few seconds. The suppression systems can be used with any fire alarm system or stand-alone. As the Stat-X® Extinguishing generators store the extinguishing agent without pressure, no cylinder rooms, pipelines or pressure measurement systems are required. The maintenance and servicing costs are significantly lower compared to sprinkler or gas extinguishing systems.
