Fire-resistant fabrics and felt are important elements of fire safety equipment that provide effective protection against fire and prevent the spread of flames. In this article we will look at the main characteristics of fireproof fabrics and felts, as well as their practical application.
Fireproof Cloths:
1. Materials: Fire resistant sheets are usually made from special fire resistant materials such as fiberglass, aramid fibers or aluminum foil. These materials have a high degree of fire resistance and can withstand high temperatures.
2. Application:
- Protection from Sparks and Fire: Fire protection sheets are often used to create a barrier between a potential source of fire and the objects that need to be protected.
- Space Isolation: They can also be used to temporarily isolate rooms in the event of a fire, allowing people to evacuate and preventing the spread of smoke.
3. Practical Examples:
- Construction Sites: Used on construction sites to prevent fire from passing from one area to another.
- Transport: Can be used to protect vehicles and cargo from possible fires.
Fire Fighting Felts:
1. Purpose: Fire felts are specialized means used to protect against fire and suppress flames in specific situations.
2. Types of nightmares:
- Automatic Fireballs: Activate automatically when fire is detected and release extinguishing agent to suppress the flames.
- Hand Felts: Used by the operator for direct application to the fire.
3. Application:
- Industrial Premises: Automatic fire blankets are often installed in industrial premises to quickly respond to the initial stages of a fire.
- Vehicles: In manual mode, can be used to extinguish fires in vehicles.
4. Efficiency:
- Quick Response: Fire blankets provide quick response, which can be critical to preventing the spread of fire.
Fire blankets and felts are an integral part of safety systems designed to prevent and suppress fires. Their correct use and regular maintenance are key to ensuring efficiency and reliability in fire conditions. It is important to follow manufacturers' recommendations and safety standards when using these products.
