Deluge Systems

Deluge Water Systems are designed to protect areas where rapid cooling is required and also in areas where fire is likely to spread quickly. In areas where cooling is required a medium velocity spray is used and a high velocity in areas where the fire needs to be extinguished.

The system can be activated either manually or through electrical detection systems. Deluge water systems nozzles, unlike sprinkler systems nozzles, are open and discharge together when the control value opens. This system requires sufficient water pressure and flow to operate.

Typical applications for deluge systems are:

• Oil storage tanks
• Transformers
• Substations
• Chemical Storage Tanks
• LPG Storage Tanks
• Road Tanker Loading/Unloading Bays
