Challenges Solutions One of the challenge lay in fitting the pump unit, storage tank, complete installation fire panel and the fire detection system into a small pump room measuring only 7 m2. Another challenge for the installation of the SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist system was to have the necessary piping inside the connections of the wooden ceiling parts. The space for the installation above the ceiling was less than 100 mm. The compact nature of the SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist pump unit, the low water consumption that allows for a smaller storage tank and the professional knowledge of our business partner, MULTIMON, combined to give us the edge needed to win the project. In cooperation with the team of carpenters, a slot was made in the hidden timber where, the fittings and elbows could be installed. The small diameter of the SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist pipes contributed significantly to the successful bid. “The SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist system offered a lot of flexibility in installation, which was extremely influential in us winning the project. With our excellent team providing the necessary professional technical support, we were able to install the SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist system in the first timber high-rise building in Germany. We were very pleased to work together with Danfoss Fire Safety and we look forward to having other exciting projects in the future.’’ States Thomas Knaak Sales Manager Special Extinguishing Systems Multimon Industrieanlagen GmbH Compact SEM-SAFE® high-pressure pump unit installed at SKAIO. High-pressure water mist is a modern & reliable fire safety technology for high-rise buildings The system saves space by eliminating the need for large-diameter water pipes and reservoirs. It ensures approx. 80% less weight of piping and reservoir. The SEM-SAFE® system eliminates the need to have sub pump stations at more levels or for multi stage pump sets, leaving these spaces free for other purposes such as apartments, shops, parking spaces and commercial areas. Approx. 30% less nozzle are installed due to larger SEM-SAFE® nozzle spacing. This technology protects glass facades efficiently from heat damage. Instead of spraying water on the glass, the SEMSAFE® system atomises the water in front of the glass. The system has passed the EN-1364-1 fire resistance test for nonloadbearing elements. Thinner glass can be installed due to the highly efficient cooling. Maintenance is easy, by remote testing section flow switches, which saves time. ® Danfoss Fire Safety A/S · Middelfartvej 9 · DK-5000 Odense · Denmark Tel. +45 7488 7800 · E-mail firesafety@danfoss.com · www.semsafe.danfoss.com Danfoss Fire Safety A/S can accept no responsibility for possible errors in catalogues, brochures and other printed material.
