FM-200
Clean Agent Systems
FM-200
is the most similar clean agent alternative for halon replacement. It is
people-safe, highly effective, fast acting, and environmentally friendly. The
EPA states that it is "the most effective of the proposed HFC substitutes
for Halon 1301." Over the last few years FM-200 has been used in thousands
of systems, and is by far the most popular halon replacement agent. FM-200 is
excellent for high-value area applications where personnel safety is critical
and no suppression agent residue can be tolerated.

Intelligent
and Conventional Fire Detection & Alarm
Westfire
offers a broad range of detection and control systems from conventional to
software-based, addressable, intelligent systems. These controls can be coupled
with several types of detection devices such as smoke, heat, optical and gas.

High-
and Low-Pressure CO2
Systems
Carbon dioxide
is especially effective in local applications, where a total flooding
system is not economically feasible. It is an excellent agent for
normally unoccupied areas.

Manual
and Automatic Dry Chemical Vehicle Systems
Westfire
has installed hundreds of manual and automatic dry chemical systems on a very
wide range of mobile equipment. We have helped develop new detection modules,
detectors, and stainless steel agent delivery systems. Dry chemical systems are
especially effective on smaller local application hazards that experience
extreme temperatures. These systems are usually designed to withstand harsh
environments. TOP
Fire-Fighting
Foam Systems
Foam
systems used in conjunction with water delivery systems are extremely effective
for flammable liquid hazards and hazards where water supply is limited. Foams
are very effective for fuel loading areas, tank farms and flammable/combustible
material storage.

High-Sensitivity
Air Sampling Smoke Detection
These
devices include an aspirator that pulls air samples from the hazard and draws
them through a very sensitive, precise smoke particle detector. These detectors
are excellent for high-value areas where early warning is critical, such as data
centers, telecommunications facilities, and semiconductor fabs.TOP
Linear
Thermal Detection
These
detectors consist of two electrical conductors manufactured with insulation
material around them that melts at various temperatures. These are very stable
detectors that are excellent for long hazards such as conveyors and cable trays.

Water,
Hydrocarbon and Acid Leak Detection Systems
Our
leak detection systems not only detect liquid leaks, but can isolate the leak
along various types of sensing cables. The controller uses TDR to pinpoint the
leak and display coordinate information. Various cables are available to sense
water, hydrocarbons or acids. The leak/locator systems are used in data center
raised floors, semiconductor fabs, mines, underground flammable liquid storage
tanks and pipelines, to name a few.
