Wet Chemical Systems: The Solution for Grease Fires
Gielle’s Wet Chemical Restaurant Fire Fighting systems are the result of years of experience in the field, offering a solution ideally suited for the demanding environments of today’s busy kitchens. Grease fires, with their rapid ignition and tendency to reignite, pose a significant challenge. While grease at room temperature is safe, its vapors ignite easily, especially when heated.
The key to tackling grease fires lies in both extinguishing the flames and preventing reignition. This is where Gielle’s Wet Chemical system shines, providing the ideal solution for this complex challenge.
The Science Behind Wet Chemical: A Deeper Dive
Gielle’s Wet Chemical agent is a potassium carbonate-based solution that is discharged as a fine spray, targeting the heart of the fire. The primary extinguishing action is cooling achieved through the heat of vaporization. This fine spray effectively prevents the dangerous splash of hot grease and avoids thermal shock damage to cooking appliances.
The magic of this system lies in its ability to prevent reignition. The wet chemical agent combines with the grease, forming a soapy layer on the surface, effectively sealing off the fuel from oxygen. This allows the grease to cool below its auto-ignition temperature, preventing further fires.
Installation: Seamless Integration for Smooth Operations
Installing fixed fire fighting equipment in a busy kitchen requires extensive experience and meticulous scheduling to ensure minimal disruption. Gielle’s expertise in this area guarantees a seamless installation process. The pipework for Wet Chemical systems can be customized in black, chrome-plated, or stainless steel to meet specific requirements, blending seamlessly with the kitchen environment.
Application: A Powerful and Effective System
Gielle’s Wet Chemical system operates at a nominal pressure of 12 bar (175p.s.i.), delivering a fine spray that lasts for approximately 45 seconds. The system’s unique design overcomes the limitations associated with dry chemical systems, offering a more efficient and user-friendly solution.
Clean-Up: Quick and Efficient Recovery
Unlike dry powder, Wet Chemical agent cleans up quickly, minimizing downtime for the cooking range and allowing for a swift return to normalcy. This efficient clean-up process ensures minimal disruption to kitchen operations, minimizing downtime and potential losses.
Storage: Scalability to Meet Every Need
Gielle’s Wet Chemical systems utilize storage containers in a range of sizes, accommodating the specific needs of each individual hazard. This flexibility ensures that kitchens of all sizes have access to the appropriate level of fire protection.
