Spark Detection
The spark detection and fire extinguishing system is designed to stop ignition sources from getting into dust explosion hazardous areas, such as silos and filters. Extremely fast and sensitive spark detectors detect ignition sources in a millisecond and start the water extinguishing. The extinguishing normally lasts for 5 seconds and stops automatically.
Our customers include companies that work in wood, bioenergy, recycling, paper, food, textile and fibre-reinforced plastic industries. Atexon products are ATEX certified by VTT Expert Services ltd. and they also conform CEA regulations.
