Special Hazard Systems

Special hazard systems are designed to detect and extinguish dangerous situations in applications where standard fire suppression/detection systems are not suitable. Communications/data/server rooms, areas designated with Explosive and Intrinsically safe requirements, High Voltage, toxic or just sensitive are just some examples.

Shield Fire Systems is certified and licenced to install, service, repair and maintain a full range of dry chemical, gaseous and foam extinguishing fire suppression systems.

Special hazard fire protection systems are:

  • Designed to quickly detect an incipient fire or heat condition
  • Designed to suppress fires where standard systems are not appropriate.
  • Designed to protect life
  • Designed to mitigate business interruption
  • Designed to limit the loss of assets, information and revenue

Dry Chemical Fire Suppression Systems 
Pressured dry chemicals, used in conjunction with the proper detection system, can extinguish a fire before it becomes detectable to the eye, thus protecting your assets from damage and your business from any major interruptions.

Gaseous Fire Suppression Systems
Use inert gases and chemical agents to suppress or extinguish fires. Also known as Clean Agent fire suppression systems, it is commonly used to protect high value and high-risk assets such as ITC sever rooms, clean rooms and science laboratories.

Foam Fire Suppression Systems
Foam extinguishing systems are effective for rapidly controlling and extinguishing flammable liquid fires.

Deluge Suppression Systems 
Fast acting Water extinguishing systems are effective for rapidly controlling highly combustible material fires and are typically used for aircraft hangars, industrial plants, and manufacturing companies.
