By enhancing its proven extinguishing automation with the unique Intelligent Extinguishment Technology, the fire prevention specialist has expanded its spark extinguishing systems with advanced monitoring and diagnostic capabilities. Utilising intelligent sensor technology, the innovative extinguishing system not only detects water flow but also monitors flow pressure, electrical parameters, and temperatures, identifying early signs of wear to enable predictive maintenance.
This makes Fagus-GreCon the only provider worldwide to ensure that the ultra-fine water mist required for optimal extinguishing is correctly formed in the hazard area – a crucial factor for highly effective fire suppression and system protection.
Designed for use in ongoing production operations, the GreCon IEM supports manufacturers across industries in reducing unplanned downtime in potentially flammable environments while significantly enhancing operational safety. At the same time, the optimised and reduced extinguishing water volume minimises the environmental impact in the event of an unexpected incident.
In its expandable configurations, the system also offers micro-leak detection and an integrated frost monitoring function, ensuring uninterrupted operation even in low temperatures.
The patent approval highlights Fagus-GreCon’s customer-centric approach to development.
“Innovation does not happen in the laboratory but in real-world applications – where challenges threaten smooth operations,” said Dr Michael Mehlhorn, head of global R&D fire prevention at Fagus-GreCon.
“Our goal is to develop solutions that address real-world problems. To achieve this, we maintain close dialogue with our customers, analyse their requirements, and implement them with technical precision and our ever-present pioneering spirit.”
