1.“I
have not had a fire in my blow room in the last 10 years.
Can I be confident that it will not happen for next 10 years“
In tossing a Coin you have got 10 consecutive
heads. What is the chance that the next toss is going to be
again heads? Only 50:50 It is a similar situation”
2. Where does it start?
Blow room consists of several openers,
cleaners and storage machines, which are interconnected through
ducting materials, is pneumatically conveyed from one machine
to another. A small spark in the opening machines may (Bale
plucker) develop into a huge fire filling into each machine
It may also start from a cleaner and cross over to the carding
section filling the chutes.
3. How many points should
be better?
The more the better. There is no limitation.
However, considering The Investment and complexity it can
vary from 2 to 5 per lines.
4. Which is the most fire
prone part of a spinning mill?
BLOW ROOM is the most affected section
in a Spinning mill. Waste collection and dust collection systems
are equally important.
5.Why Fire Diversion System
is essential?
Today spinning mill are quality driven
and production driven enterprise involving sophisticated machineries
meeting customer demands. While huge investment is made in
machineries building and process material it has become essential
to safeguard to reduce losses in emergence of fire and minimized
downtime.
6. How does fire happen
in a Spinning Mill?
The cause of fire may be the following:
- Man made
- Electrical short circuits
- Process Fire
While man made fires are controlled adopting strict practices
like good housekeeping avoiding careless smoking, proper
handling of hazardous substances. Electrical fires are controlled
by using approved equipments and accessories and involving
properly trained technicians. However process fires are
inevitable since cotton or synthetic fires are highly inflammable
when it is passed through high speed machineries or automated
lines or hard substance may generate fire.
7. How can you interrupt?
With the Fire Diversion System you detect
and trap the fired materials and drive out through an extra
suction fan.
8. Can it be 100% effective?
Frankly FDS is not a Fire Eliminator.
Already Fire has happened at a point. Now the primary objective
is to react to it preventing it spreading further and take
out the affected material quickly. |
