FM and ATEX approved chemical suppression systems operate within milliseconds to suppress an explosion before any damage is caused to plant or personnel are harmed.

They are designed for process industry applications involving flammable dusts or powders, and in which there is potential for expensive or hazardous explosions in cyclones, filters, dryers or elevators.

Suppressant is released without explosive charge, and delivery systems have no moving parts or wear points.

Systems can be used in conjunction with mechanical isolation systems, or in combination with explosion vents.

Sanitary versions are available to meet the stringent guidelines laid down by the pharmaceutical and food industries.

All systems are maintained by Fikes own trained service staff to offer preventative maintenance and a 24/7 emergency service to minimise process downtime.
