DAFO (DAFO) was founded in Sweden100 years in the fire suppression market.
1919 – foundation of the company.
1976 – the company ‘DAFO’ becomes one of the pioneers
in creating fire suppression systems for vehicles.

ISO 9001 and ISO 14000 quality control systems.
Certified in Russia.
Today, the company is a leader in the development
and implementation of new methods and technologies to prevent
equipment failure due to fire.

 

WITH EACH YEAR, THE NUMBER OF FIRE INCIDENTS ON ROADS AND ON CONSTANTLY OPERATED EQUIPMENT IS GROWING

THE CAUSES OF SUCH FIRES ARE VARIED:

  • extreme working conditions;
  • contamination of units with fuel and lubricants;
  • accumulation of flammable materials and contaminants in the engine compartment associated with operation.

This and many other factors can lead to overheating of units and, ultimately, to fire.

Unfortunately, such incidents often result in major repairs and/or replacement of hard-to-reach and expensive parts. As a result – prolonged equipment downtime and potential business loss.

But the worst thing that can happen is injuries and even fatalities. As owners or operators of complex and expensive equipment, you are highly motivated to minimize all such risks, and therefore reliably protect your business and the lives of your employees.

It is for you and your peace of mind that the ‘DAFO’ automatic fire suppression systems were created.COMPONENTS OF THE DAFO SYSTEM When the temperature rises, there is a possibility of ignition in the protected area. The ignition is responded to by the linear detection cable (detector) (8), which transmits a signal to the control unit (4). The control unit (4) sends a signal to the pyrotechnic cartridge (9), which activates the triggering mechanism (3) on the nitrogen cylinder (2). At the same time, the alarm indicator light on the control panel (5) lights up, and the audible (7) and visual (6) alarms are triggered. Gas from the nitrogen cylinder (2) is supplied to the container with the extinguishing agent FORREX (1), activating the piston, which pushes the extinguishing agent into the distribution pipeline (10), which is then sprayed through nozzles (11), covering the protected surfaces and area.
