CPS 1230 Cabinet protection systems

Switch and control cabinets, along with vending machines, contain electronic and electric components in very confined spaces. CPS 1230 extinguishing systems protect this type of cabinet in case a fire occurs inside them as a result of a short circuit, overload, overheating or a component error.

CPS 1230 extinguishing systems fight fires in the cabinets that are to be protected, using the FK 5-1-12 extinguishing agent by 3MTM. The extinguishing agent extracts heat from the fire and thus stops the combustion reaction. The Novec 1230 extinguishing agent is stored in a liquid state in an extinguishing agent tank. The extinguishing agent is transformed into a gaseous state only when it is released from the extinguishing nozzles into the cabinets that are to be protected. FK 5-1-12 is neither corrosive nor electrically conductive, leaves no residues and is highly environmentally friendly.

A CPS 1230 extinguishing system can protect up to two cabinets with electronic and electric components. Thanks to prefabricated component sets, it is easy and quick to install new systems or to retrofit existing ones. CPS 1230 extinguishing systems protect in the case of fire not only the actual cabinets, but also prevent the fire spreading to other devices in their vicinity.

Applications

CPS 1230 Cabinet protection systems are an ideal fire protection solution in many cases, e.g. for Switch cabinets in low-voltage switch systems, Control cabinets for production systems or Vending machines for goods and services in connection with commuter transportation systems. CPS 1230 extinguishing systems for cabinet protection not only protect property, but also prevent energy supply and production facilities from longer downtimes.
