Fume cupboards, also known as ‘fume hoods’ or ‘fume cabinets’ are commonplace in industry, pharmaceutical research facilities and educational establishments. On such sites there can be multiple users, a wide range of chemicals and different processes that can considerably increase the risk of a fire.
Due to the semi-enclosed nature of fume cupboards, fires can be difficult to identify, which often means that it is too late for users to take action as the fire will have developed. Typically fume cupboards are found in multiple numbers in close proximity which means that a fire that originates in a single piece of equipment can spread to other adjacent equipment.
Fume cupboards require a specialist fire suppression system that is capable of detecting and extinguishing a fire situation within the fume cupboard workspace, dealing with the fire event locally before it can more fully develop.
"AR SUPPRESSION" systems BY FIRE ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY are specifically designed to detect and discharge inside the fume cupboard at the heart of the fire, extinguishing quickly and preventing any spread or escalation of the fire to neighbouring fume cupboards and the wider building. This can significantly reduce the risk of injury to personnel and losses caused by equipment down time and operational disruption.
"AR SUPPRESSION" fume cupboard fire suppression systems are fitted at some of the INDIA’s most prestigious institutions and laboratory sites and offer peace of mind for customers looking to protect their assets and staff from the risk of fire.

Fire Suppression Systems & Automatic Suppression Systems control and extinguish fires in buildings without human intervention. Automatic Suppression Systems fall into two categories engineered and pre-engineered systems. Fixed Suppression Systems can use a variety of extinguishing agents depending on the assets it is designed to protect. Dry Chemical Powder Suppression Systems are fire suppression systems that use dry chemical powder to extinguish a fire. When introduced directly to a fire, dry chemical powder extinguishes flames almost immediately. Dry chemical powder is intended for use in extinguishing fires involving bulk chemical agents and liquefied gases. Foam systems are suppression systems using foam to extinguish fires. Foam suppression systems are used to form a coherent floating blanket on flammable and combustible liquids to prevent or extinguish fires by excluding air and cooling the fuel. Foam systems can be used as a fire prevention, control or extinguishing agent for flammable liquid in tanks or processing areas as it prevents re-ignition by suppressing the formation of flammable vapours. Gaseous systems are gas suppression systems using chemical agents to extinguish a fire. Gaseous suppression systems are waterless, deploy quickly and most importantly cleanly without leaving water, particulate or oily residue on high value or irreplaceable assets. At Fire Safety Search we care about fire suppression equipment and its ability to protect buildings, assets and life. That is why we proudly feature only the highest rated, highest quality fire suppression from industry-trusted brands. When it comes to finding the latest fire suppression choose Fire Engineering Technology.
