SAPPHIRE COMPACT Direct Low Pressure (DLP) fixed fire suppression system

Small electrical enclosures can present a fire hazard at any time, the GEM SAPPHIRE COMPACT system is designed to rapidly detect and extinguish fires. Systems can be designed to protect enclosures with both natural ventilation and forced airflow.

GEM SAPPHIRE COMPACT fire suppression systems require no power for detection or operation. Detection tubing is routed through the high risk areas of the enclosure, providing fast and effective detection. Upon flame impingement or high ambient temperature, the pressurised detection tube will rupture. The extinguishing agent is then discharged from the connected container through the rupture point on to the fire.

GEM SAPPHIRE COMPACT systems utilise 3M™ Novec™ 1230 Fire Protection Fluid, an electrically non-conductive clean agent. If discharged, it does no damage to electronic equipment or the data stored on it and has zero ozone depleting potential and negligible global warming potential.
