Wall CabinetsManual Fire Fighting with High Pressure Wall Cabinets

FOGTEC wall cabinets operate on thesame principle as fixed FOGTEC systems,except that the high pressure water mistis produced by a manually operatedFOGGUN. The spray patterns of the mistbeing discharged can easily be adjustedto the risk. A particularly fine mist can beused to effectively fight liquid and dustfires without splashing or disturbing thefire load. A high-energy spray can beused to fight larger fires. FOGTEC wallcabinets are suited for a wide range ofapplications in the industry, but also inarchives, museums and EDP rooms. Low

water consumption, ease of use andthe resulting reduction of damage,distinguish the FOGTEC wall cabinetsfrom conventional systems. In industrialsites, FOGTEC wall cabinets are used tocomplement fixed fire fighting systemsor to protect risks for which a protectionby fixed systems is not practicable fortechnical or economic reasons.

A small diameter hose, as well as theeasily manageable FOGGUN ensuregreat flexibility, with almost no reactionforce on discharge.

Based on this concept FOGTEC high pressure wall cabinets protect riskswhere:• People are exposed to special hazards• The maintenance of vital production

systems is essential• Rapid and effective fire fighting is

required• Consequential water damage must be

minimised• The fire brigades response time is pro

prolonged• The use of powder or foam agents will

lead to unacceptable clean upprocedures

• Standard fire prevention, like hand held extinguishers, provide insufficientcover.

And additionally where:• Fixed fire extinguishing is not

suitable due to technical or economicalreasons

• Fixed fire protection systems have tobe installed to protect people, goodsand environment

Special high pressure wall cabinets withhose lengths of up to 60 meters areinstalled in the risk vicinity. Each wallcabinet is equipped with a FOGGUN.It has two different spray patterns, whichcan be adjusted via a high - pressure ballvalve. A control for mixing an additivecan be incorporated as an option.

Wall cabinets are connected to a centralised pump unit via a high -pressure pipework. The pump unit is sup-plied with water from the water main or from an integrated tank. High pressure wall cabinets can be retrofittedto existing FOGTEC systems, where ahigh pressure pump unit has beenalready installed.

System advantages:• Immediate fire fighting capability• Easy to use• Installed at strategic locations close

to the risk• Safe for use on liquid fires• Operator is protected against radiant

heat• Highly efficient fire fighting• Continuous supply of water mist• Unlimited extinguishing time• Minimal water consumption and

water damage• Environmentally friendly• Easy maintenance
