Firetrace detection tubing is positioned close to the protected hazard, providing an automatic response when the tubing is exposed to sufficient heat. Pneumatic systems can operate without electrical power.
Heat-sensitive detection tubing is routed close to the potential fire source.
When the tubing operates due to heat, the resulting pressure change activates the system.
Suppression agent discharges through the detection tubing or a dedicated nozzle network, depending on the configuration.
