The Original Spark Detection and Extinguishing System


Flamex Logo

Originally developed by a dedicated group of engineers who recognized the hazards created by dust collection and air filtration systems, FLAMEX® is the world’s premier spark detection and extinguishing system. It is also the first system of its kind to earn Factory Mutual approval. FLAMEX® has been the recipient of the woodworking industry’s prestigious Challenger Award and is entering its fourth decade of proven explosion and fire prevention.



How It Works.



As a spark travels through the duct work of your collection system, it is instantly identified by the FLAMEX® infrared detectors flush mounted to the blowpipe. The system initiates water-flow through strategically placed nozzles to establish an instantaneous wall of water inside the duct, effectively extinguishing the sparks or embers. The system automatically resets itself with no down time or messy clean-up.

Each FLAMEX® System is carefully constructed of the finest and most durable materials available. Additionally, alternative detectors and extinguishing tailor your system to meet the specific needs of the working environment.
