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.
