Fire Systems

The fire system is essential in the security of residential, commercial buildings and industrial sheds. Fire-fighting systems are very complex structures, involving numerous components, from the monitoring, firing and fire-fighting systems themselves.

Lefoo serves companies specializing in firefighting systems with extremely reliable components critical to such critical application.

The importance of pressure switches in fire systems

Pressure switches are widely used in a wide range of applications worldwide. Automobiles, agricultural machinery and various industrial machinery use pressure switches for the correct operation of their processes.

In some of these applications, however, the proper functioning of this item has an importance that goes far beyond maintaining the functioning of a system and can compromise the safety of people, putting the lives of many at risk. A fire system is a great example of this.

In an agricultural machine, the pressure switch acts on the routine operation of the machinery, producing some failure in the set in case of breakage, thus requiring its replacement for the continuity of operation. In the case of a fire system the problem is slightly larger.

The pressure switch in a fire system operates in Stand by. Although it operates at constant pressurization, in the case of a sprinkler system, for example, a failure in a pressure switch may result in non-activation of water pumps that pressurize the system, leading to the failure of the entire fire fighting system, which cannot be repaired before the damage has already been generated.

Using proven quality components in addition to periodic testing is the only way to ensure your system meets your needs.
