Hot risk area
Many dishes have to be produced
with a large amount of hot fat,
which also means a high fire risk.
The main reason for fires in deep
fryers, tilting-type frying pans,
frying, griddle and grill plates is
the unforeseen failure of the
overheating protection. The self-
ignition of the fat already occurs
at 350 °C and spreads quickly.
If the fire is extinguished with
water, disastrous fat explosions
are the result and also CO2 ex-
tinguishers and extinguishing
blankets have proven to be in-
sufficient in such case.
The compact extinguishing system
KS 2000 detects burgeoning fires
and triggers the extinguishing
process in a matter of seconds
with the double-acting extinguish-
ant Febramax which is especially
designed for fat fires: fine-sprayed
via nozzles the extinguishant lays
a barrier layer over the fat or oil
and thus stops the oxygen supply.
At the same time the water part
cools the fat down below the
self-ignition temperature. In this
way the KS 2000 extinguishes
seven times more efficient than
the forerunner. Febramax only
