Waco Deluge Fire Sprinklers

Ansul Deluge Suppression Systems

Deluge fire sprinklers are used in areas where highly flammable or explosive materials are present. Deluge suppression systems are designed for immediate response and generally have multiple detectors and sensors that trigger the system to disperse fire extinguishing agents such as water, foam, chemical or gas like carbon dioxide (CO2) to extinguish, suppress or contain the rapid spread of fire. Deluge fire sprinkler systems are very complex and generally require an experienced fire sprinkler company in Waco to install, service, maintain, test or inspect the system.

Deluge sprinkler suppression systems may use quick opening, differential diaphragm, flood valves that help regulate the flow of water in case of fire. Generally the system piping will remain dry by water pressure held in the valve chamber until the system is triggered. In the presence of fire, heat or explosion deluge valves an be activated or with detectors or sensors that trigger the deluge sprinkler heads to open.

Deluge fire sprinkler suppression systems are specifically designed, engineered and fabricated for the special hazards that exist in a building, warehouse or facility in Waco.
