How it works?
All Firetrace Systems utilize the proprietary red Firetrace Detection Tubing (FDT) as a Linear Heat and Flame Detector. These systems may be arranged as either "Direct Release" or "Indirect Release", depending on the type of enclosure or fire hazard.
Direct System
 Click on the picture to see an animation As the fire begins, the portion of the tube nearest the point where the most heat is detected ruptures, forming an effective spray nozzle. The pressure will then drop as the Firetrace tube releases the entire contents of the cylinder through the distribution nozzle to effectively suppress the fire. More than one Firetrace tube can be used enabling the system to cover more area.

Indirect System
 Click on the picture to see an animation Once the tubing senses the fire, it then ruptures - resulting in a drop of pressure causing the Indirect Valve to activate. This diverts flow from the detection tube to the larger outlet ports.
The Extinguishing Agent is then discharged from the cylinder through the diffuser nozzles, flooding the area in a proprietary mix of fire extinguishing chemicals, effectively suppressing the fire quickly and thoroughly. This system is typically used in larger areas that require a high volume of Extinguishing Agents, to effectively suppress the fire. Multiple diffuser nozzles may be added to meet the specific application requirements.
