JETEX - a unique high-power fire fighting equipment

Performance based on innovative Gas-dynamic technology

Fire extinguishing equipment on the basis of a new gas-dynamic technology

Developments of our specialists, made on the principals of the gas-dynamic technology, allowed to create a new and unique high-power fire fighting equipment with a two-phase highly dispersed jet.

The equipment has no analogues in the world and allows to effectively fight with the high-intensity area fires.

JETEX module can be used in a number of fire extinguishing systems on various carriers to extinguish fires of any complexity, including fires of high radiation, fires on high-rise buildings and facilities, forest fires, etc.

Technology

JETEX Fire Fighting System

The principle of gas-dynamic production of high-speed fine-dispersed two-phase jets of fire extinguishing working fluids of high speed and range of action, effectively combining a number of mechanisms of influence on the sources of fire, is the basis of JETEX Fire Fighting System.

Some of the tasks resolved by JETEX solutions:

  • Overcoming the distance to the fire

    • Provided by long range of jet flow – from 85 to 120 m

  • Disruption of the flame

    • Provided by high-speed of jet flow – up to 100 m/s

  • Prevention of oxidizer (air) access to the combustion zone
    Removal of heat from combustion zone

    • Provided by size of jet flow droplets approx. 150 – 350 µm and increased evaporation speed – 1.000 times in comparison to existing systems

Gas-dynamic systems, when compared to the existing technologies, offer opportunities to:

  • obtain velocities of the working substance in the initial cross-section of the jet flow several times grater;
  • increase the range by 2 times, ensuring the supply of the minimum required amount of fluid over long distances;
  • provide optimal dispersion of droplets or particles of jets in and around the fire site (with sizes ~150 − 350 µm);
  • reduce twice the consumption of fire extinguishing substance per unit of area of fire;
  • extinguish fires which are difficult or impossible to extinguish from short distances;
  • reduce time to extinguish the fire;
  • reduce damage, caused by process of fire extinguishing.

At sites where the most stringent requirements are imposed on fire safety, such as refineries, tanker fleets, sea- and airports, etc., along with mobile  JETEX  installations, the stationary  JETEX  modules, equipped with intelligent systems for detecting fires and for auto start-stop of extinguishing, can make a greater alternative or extra support to serve the purpose.

APPLICATION

For most of Industries,
Business and Civil Sectors

Performing high mobility, responding to the demands of fast transportation and delivery, as well as easy field instalment, the JETEX Module is designed for most of the application purposes, made in the form factor of a 20-foot container, which provides the versatility and convenience when placing the JETEX System on mobile carriers – over-the-road, rail or marine, as well as on stationary platforms of fire fighting systems, including at sites where the most stringent requirements are imposed on fire safety, such as refineries, tanker fleets, seaports and airports, and many other.
