🔥 Fire Protection for Wood Processing Equipment 🔥 Handling wood and paper products comes with unique fire risks—combustible debris, high equipment temperatures, and wood chips exposed to oil and heat can lead to fires that threaten safety, capital, and production. Fires can even break out after hours, with smoldering debris left unsupervised. While good maintenance practices help, installing a fire suppression system is essential for continuous protection and minimal downtime. AFEX Fire Suppression Systems systems are trusted by mills and plants worldwide to actively monitor and protect chippers, grinders, dozers, wheel loaders, and more, staying vigilant even after operations pause.

4 Essential Steps to Take in the Event of a Heavy Equipment Fire 🔥 In the unfortunate event of a fire on heavy equipment, every second counts. Follow these four crucial steps to stay safe: 1️⃣ Stop & Shut Down - Bring the vehicle to a complete stop in a safe area, and power down immediately. 2️⃣ Exit & Actuate - Safely exit the machine, and even if it has already been activated, manually trigger the fire suppression system as you leave. 3️⃣ Assist & Distance - Use a fire extinguisher to clear your exit path if necessary, then move to a safe distance. 4️⃣ Follow Protocol - Refer to your company's emergency response plan and alert emergency services as soon as possible. Preparation and training can save lives. Make sure your team knows these steps by heart! 🧯 #afex #FireSuppression #HeavyEquipmentSafety #EmergencyResponse #SafetyTips #AFEXFireSafety #MiningSafety #ConstructionSafety

Side Cartridge vs. Stored Pressure: What’s the Difference? 🧯 When it comes to choosing a fire suppression system, understanding the distinction between stored pressure and side cartridge-operated systems is crucial. Let’s break it down: Stored Pressure Systems In a stored pressure system, the compressed nitrogen gas—which propels the dry chemical agent—is stored within the same container as the dry chemical. This setup keeps the tank pressurized and ready for immediate activation. Stored pressure systems are simple and effective for many applications, but because the powder and nitrogen are stored together, these systems may be prone to “clumping” if not regularly agitated. Side Cartridge Systems In side cartridge systems, the dry chemical is stored in a non-pressurized tank, and the nitrogen gas is kept in a separate cartridge. This design means the tank only pressurizes during activation, allowing the system to remain at atmospheric pressure most of the time. When actuated, these systems fluff or aerate the dry chemical powder just before discharge, effectively reducing clumping and ensuring the agent flows smoothly. What Does This Mean? 🧐 Side cartridge systems offer a clear advantage in situations where settling or clumping could be a concern. The fluffing action during activation helps break up any powder that may have settled, delivering a more consistent discharge. Want to dive deeper?
