IBC FIRE DEPARTMENT

There are many dangers lurking in recycling plants, especially from fire.

Whether sparks during shredding, spontaneous combustion in waste piles or fires in the storage of lithium-ion batteries - fires start quickly and can spread rapidly.

IBC High Pressure with the mobile extinguishing system offers you the perfect solution for preventive fire protection and the protection of your plant and employees.

Customizable range

Enables the extinguishing system to be used over long distances

High mobility

Uncomplicated laying and moving of the hose on the company premises

Why IBC high-pressure extinguishing system?

Fast availability and response time

The system is mobile and can be deployed quickly to respond to sources of fire. A practical example: In a recycling company in Stuttgart, a smouldering fire in a scrap metal warehouse was extinguished within a few minutes using the mobile IBC high-pressure extinguishing system and a major fire was prevented.

Versatile application possibilities

Whether in the vicinity of shredders, conveyor belts or in areas where batteries and electronic waste are stored - our system can be used in a variety of ways and is suitable for the conditions in your company. The strength of the mobile high-pressure extinguishing system is particularly evident in areas where combustible materials such as paper, plastics or metals are mixed.

Hazardous areas in recycling plants

Shredders and conveyor belts:
Mechanical friction can cause sparks, which can easily start a fire.

Storage of lithium-ion batteries:
These pose a particularly high fire hazard as they can self-ignite. E.g.: Household appliances such as lawnmowers, washing machines and e-cigarettes as well as on circuit boards.

Bales of cloth and waste paper storage:
These materials can ignite quickly at high temperatures or through embers.

Waste compactor:
Compression can generate sparks that are difficult to detect and extinguish.

More than just fire protection -

Expandable hose line for flexible areas of application

The IBC firefighting system can be equipped with a hose line of 20 to 100 meters and can be extended up to 300m with a hose reel.

Fire department foam proportioning

The multigrade foam concentrate is particularly effective on fires in recycling plants, where the variety of materials ranges from wood and paper to more complex hazards such as vehicles and lithium-ion batteries. In the event of a fire in a container with batteries, for example, the foam ensures rapid wetting, penetrating deep into the surface and fighting a smoldering ember before it can spread. The foam concentrate we use has been tested by the Gelsenkirchen Hygiene Institute. Example: Forest floor Wetting water quantity per m² forest floor 100Ltr.

IBC Hurricane Turbine Launcher

Fastest flooding for maximum firefighting, this high-performance system enables the rapid flooding of burning containers with lightweight foam

MULTIPLE

APPLICATION AREAS

Example from practice

In one case in Ingolstadt, the rapid deployment of the IBC firefighting system enabled a fire in the area of a shredder plant to be extinguished before it could spread to the adjacent warehouses. These examples show how important it is to be able to react quickly and flexibly.
