What Are Special Hazard Fire Protection Systems?

Special hazard fire protection goes beyond standard suppression to safeguard environments where traditional fire systems may be ineffective or pose additional risks. These systems are engineered for high-value assets, hazardous materials, extreme conditions, and mission-critical operations.

Industries We Protect

Power Generation & Energy Facilities

Protecting turbines, generators, and substations from fire-induced downtime

Nuclear Waste, Fuel , and Power Facilities

Protecting nuclear facilities, because national security depends on it

Chemical & Petrochemical Plants

Suppressing fires in volatile fuel and processing environments

Aerospace & Manufacturing

Precision protection for critical production lines

Data Centers & IT Infrastructure

Clean-agent systems to prevent damage to sensitive electronics

Pharmaceutical

Safeguarding research labs and clean rooms

Advanced Special Hazard Fire Suppression Systems

At F.E. Moran, we integrate advanced fire suppression technologies that detect and extinguish fires before they escalate, minimizing downtime and damage.

Clean Agent Fire Suppression

  • FM-200 & Novec 1230 – Ideal for IT, telecommunications, and high-tech manufacturing
  • CO₂ Systems – Oxygen displacement suppression for industrial equipment
  • Inert Gas Suppression (Argonite, Inergen) – Non-toxic, residue-free suppression

Water-Based Systems

  • Deluge Systems – High-volume water release for flammable liquid and industrial hazards
  • Water Mist Systems – Fine mist suppression for precision cooling and minimal water damage
  • Wet Pipe Systems - always charged with water for instant suppression
  • Dry Pipe Systems - water-free until activated, ideal for freezing conditions
  • Pre-action Systems - requires two triggers, preventing accidental water release

Explosion-Proof & Specialized Fire Detection

  • Flame & Gas Detection – Infrared, ultraviolet, and multi-spectrum detectors for hazardous environments
  • Air Sampling & Aspiration Systems – Early fire detection in sensitive locations
  • Heat & Smoke Detection – High-sensitivity detection for fast response
  • Flame and Heat Detection Cameras - faster, more accurate fire recognition in hazardous environments such as Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)

Foam Fire Suppression

  • AFFF & High-Expansion Foam Systems – Rapidly covering flammable liquids and preventing ignition
  • Foam-Water Deluge Systems – High-hazard fire suppression for fuel storage and refineries

Dry Chemical Suppression

  • Industrial & Manufacturing Protection – Effective for combustible metals and fuel-based hazards
