Methods and apparatus for passive non-electrical dual stage fire suppression

Номер: US20120018177A1
Автор: Brian J. Cashion, Dustin C. Moran, William A. Eckholm
Принадлежит: Firetrace USA LLC

Methods and apparatus for passive non-electrical dual stage fire suppression according to various aspects of the present invention include detecting a fire with a first active fire suppressant unit and changing the status of a second fire suppressant unit from “stand-by” to “active” when the first fire suppressant unit releases a fire suppressant agent. After the first fire suppressant unit has released its fire suppressant agent, the second fire suppressant unit may detect a continued and/or a new fire and release a second fire suppressant agent in response to the detection.

A system for suppressing a wind turbine fire using an admixture of hydrated super absorbent polymer having properties for suppressing and extinguishing of a fire. The admixture is non conductive and, upon drying, leaves a non-conductive residual that can be vacuumed from the wind turbine components to allow salvaging of the wind turbine components. The admixture is maintained within a pressurized storage vessel having a solenoid that is released by temperature sensor applying the admixture through strategically positioned nozzles to the control cabinets, generator, gearbox and bearings for extinguishment of any associated fire. Since the admixture of super absorbent polymer and water entraps the particulates and noxious and/or toxic gasses, the clean-up is substantially easier and quicker than the clean up from other methods of fire suppression and extinguishing. 1.
