Key Features
At the heart of the Reliance Firetech Quick Response System is a specially engineered, heat-sensitive pneumatic polymer tubing. One end connects to a Firetech extinguishing agent container, while the rest discreetly runs through the at-risk area.
In the event of a fire, the heat-sensing tube detects temperature increases (150° - 180°C) and bursts upon contact with flames, automatically activating the system. There are two main configurations: Direct and Indirect.
- Direct Configuration: The bursting tube directly activates the extinguisher's valve, spraying the extinguishing agent onto the flames for immediate suppression. Ideal for compartmentalised cabinets.
- Indirect Configuration: The tube triggers the valve to release the agent through a separate discharge line, flooding the area with protection. Perfect for non-compartmentalised spaces.

Activation Process: Upon fire detection, the system activates, discharging the extinguishing agent through specialised nozzles to cover all critical areas. It also includes features to shut off gas and power supply, ensuring complete safety. Manual pull stations offer immediate response capabilities, complementing the automated system.
Reliance Firetech Wet Chemical Kitchen Fire Suppression Systems offer numerous advantages tailored to meet the unique demands of commercial kitchens.
Firstly, these systems provide rapid fire extinguishment, quickly eliminating flames and minimising damage, which helps reduce downtime in your kitchen operations. They also feature a cooling effect that prevents re-ignition by lowering temperatures, ensuring enhanced safety during cooking.
Designed for comprehensive protection, our systems cover the entire kitchen hood, duct, and plenum areas, eliminating blind spots and ensuring complete coverage. Additionally, they require low maintenance, as they are stored-pressure systems that need less upkeep than traditional options, saving time and resources.
With flexible activation options, the systems can be triggered manually or automatically, providing immediate response capabilities tailored to various emergency situations. The environmentally friendly foam agent is biodegradable, allowing your kitchen to operate responsibly.
Moreover, these systems create minimal collateral damage during activation, preventing flooding and simplifying cleanup. They can be customized to fit the specific layout and requirements of your kitchen, ensuring optimal performance.
