How

Firetrace

Works

Firetrace systems detect fires at their source, then automatically suppress them using specialized chemical agents.

Detect

Firetrace systems do not require electronic fire detectors. Instead, the system detects fires using specially designed tubing. The tubing is made of a flexible polymer that can be installed anywhere a fire might start. Firetrace tubing can detect both heat and flames. When it detects either, then it bursts open, activating the system.

Activate

When the detection tubing bursts, there is a pressure change in the system. This activates a valve, which releases gas or powder stored in the cylinder. Unlike fire extinguishers, Firetrace systems do not require manual operation. However, systems can be manually operated by pushing a button called the manual release.

Suppress

Firetrace systems contain specialized gas or powder, designed for putting out fires. These are called suppression agents. Suppression agents put out fires by eliminating heat or oxygen or by disrupting chemical reactions. When the system activates, the agent travels from the cylinder to the protected space, either directly through the detection tube or through connected hoses and nozzles.

Types of Systems

Direct Icon

Direct Release

Direct release systems detect fires using flexible Firetrace detection tubing. They suppress fires by releasing suppression agent directly through the tubing.
