Fire and Water

The pages of history are full of conflagrations and disasters caused by fire.

The industrial revolution at the end of the nineteenth century resulted in higher economic efficiency; it also created greater fire risks and more damage from fire.

Another challenge in the fight against fire has been set by newly developed materials that decompose in a fire to products that pollute the environment. It shows the link between fire protection and environmental protection.

Automatic fire fighting with the use of sprinkler systems has been known since the middle of the nineteenth century. Henry S. Parmelee, American piano builder, had the pioneering idea which was to revolutionize fire protection. His invention, the automatic “Sprinkler System”, was taken up by the engineer Wilhelm Walther as early as 1884, and this led to the construction of the first system in Germany.

In order to protect the environment, fire protection specialists have set themselves the task of preventing or restricting the influence of contaminated extinguishing water.

The Micro Drop extinguishing process is a major step towards the optimum use of water as an extinguishing agent.

The breakthrough was achieved by transforming the extinguishing water into a fog-like cloud of droplets distributed in space.

contaminated – загрязненный extinguishing – гасящий, тушащий Micro Drop –микрокапельный

a sprinkler system – противопожарная система
