For added safety and protection from fire. The built in temperaturecontroller can be set so when a 10°C temperature rise is detected,the FireBOX GA will activate the isolating valves and switch off the power to the extraction unit, suppressing the airflow to the FireBOX and reducing the speed of fire. If this does not suppress the fire and the temperature rises another 10°C then the fire extinguisherwill be activated.
The FireBOX GA is designed for general applications and is not for use on metal-based applications. Please refer to the FireBOX MA to your sales representative to ensure you chose the right system.
