Firetrace Localized Fire Detection & Suppression

Fast Machine-mounted or In-Cabinet, non-conducting fire protection

AST Canada supplies Firetrace fire detection and suppression systems where in-cabinet or machine-mounted, non-water fire suppression is desirable.

Firetrace Special Hazard Fire-Suppression Solutions

Firetrace offers a unique non-electric, all-in-one detection and suppression, fire-protection system that provides non-conductive fire-suppression agents to extinguish fires 10X faster than an electric detection/suppression system!

How Firetrace Systems Work

…In less than 1 minute

How It Works

Detect

Firetrace detects fires at the source using proprietary heat and flame detection tubing.

Activate

The Firetrace system activates automatically, providing protection even when no one is around.

Suppress

Firetrace systems suppress fires in seconds using clean agents that are safe for people, equipment, and the environment.

Rapid Detection

Detects fires right at their source

Safe for Equipment

Clean agents leave no residue

No False Alarms

Ideal for harsh or dusty environments

Self Contained

Independent of power, water, and electricity

Rapid Detection

At the heart of Firetrace’s solution is its detection tubing that is deployed throughout the areas to be protected. The tubing has precise temperature sensitivity and will quickly sense and cause a reaction when heat from a fire is present. This advanced detection mechanism can be deployed in a server room, electrical cabinet, or machinery compartment to immediately release a fire suppression when heat is detected.

Automatic Suppression

Upon a fire hazard detection the Firetrace tubing bursts and the Fire Suppressant Agent (FSA) is deployed directly through the tubing, or alternatively, the change in the tubing pressure triggers the attached canister to deploy the FSA through an alternate system of fixed conduits and nozzles.

Safe for Equipment

What sets Firetrace apart is its localized approach to fire suppression. Instead of flooding entire spaces with suppressants, this system delivers precise and targeted extinguishment directly at the source of the fire effectively smothering the flames before they can escalate.

The FSAs used are non-water-based agents like Firetrace’s own FK-5-1-12 which replaces 3M’s Novec 1230, or Standard ABC fire suppressant.

Self-Contained System

Firetrace’s self-contained fire detection and suppression system operates autonomously, requiring no external power source. With its innovative design, it provides reliable protection against fire hazards during power outages, and in remote or off-grid locations where power availability may be limited, ensuring peace of mind in diverse environments.

No False Alarms

Firetrace’s system boasts unparalleled reliability, minimizing false alarms through advanced detection technology. By distinguishing genuine threats from environmental fluctuations, it ensures precision in fire detection and suppression, fostering trust among users and eliminating unnecessary disruptions or interventions.
