Water mist system for the protection of electric oil transformers
Power T Five is a Water mist system developed for the fire protection of electric oil transformers, widely used in industrial plants. In these applications the high fire risk is due to the presence of the oil contained into the transformers.
The traditional fire fighting uses to propose as fire solution the deluge system whose operation requires a big quantity of water reservoir. On the contrary, Power T Five is an innovative solution which adopts the Water mist technology, able to produce as extinguishing agent nebulized water mixed with FireFive®.
Powered by dedicated cylinder skids, Power T Five can also work as Stand alone solution. It is an independent system with no need of power supply, allowing the best performance even in case of system breakdown.
The nozzles used, specifically engineered for this application and located in order to cover completely the affected area, allow an immediate cool down of the surface and a rapid control of the flames. The heat sensitive cables placed on the transformer detect the fire assuring the system intervention in few seconds.
Furthermore, the system can be integrated with electrical control panels able to receive from the control room the alarm signal generated by the transformer Bucholz relay.
Advantages:
- Minimum water consumption
- Low environmental impact
- High suppression performances, certified by UL
- Stand alone solution
- Easy maintenance
