Feed Mill Spark Detection Extinguish

The system detects sparks in the duct air stream. When a preset quantity of sparks are detected, a signal will be sent to the extinguishing system. If the sparks reach a higher preset level, a signal will be sent to the abort gate to divert the material to atmosphere and shut down the processing equipment.

The spark extinguish system provides a spray or deluge of water to extinguish sparks in the ducting. Extinguishing the sparks prevent fires or explosions in the baghouse or the necessity for tripping the abort gate.
