Electrical Panel Fire Suppression System

An electrical panel fire suppression system is an automatic fire protection solution installed within electrical panels, PLC cabinets and other critical control enclosures. These systems are essential because electrical faults such as overheating, sparks and wire fatigue can rapidly ignite, risking severe damage and downtime. The system reacts instantly to detected fires, helping prevent catastrophic equipment failure and operational disruption.

Fireward employs clean agents such as Reacton 1230™ and FM-200™ (HFC-227ea). Both are electrically non-conductive, leave no residue and are safe for sensitive electronics. Reacton 1230™ discharges as a gas from liquid storage, while FM-200™ is a highly tested, liquefiable clean agent. Neither agent damages delicate components, maintaining system integrity.

These systems are designed for instantaneous activation, using clean agents that flood the protected zone at the first sign of fire. The system is completely automatic and operates without reliance on external power or human intervention, making it ideal for unmanned enclosures and downtime-sensitive environments.

Any facility relying on electrical panels, PLC cabinets or electrical control systems, such as manufacturing plants, data centres, process control rooms and utility rooms, benefits from this fire suppression system. In such settings, an electrical panel fire suppression system preserves system integrity by stopping fires before they can escalate, ensuring continuity and safety.

Unlike conventional water sprinklers or reactive extinguishers, electrical panel fire suppression systems use clean agents that do not harm electronics or leave residue. They prevent collateral water damage and system downtime, responding proactively within seconds - making them a superior choice for protecting sensitive electrical equipment.
