What is Blueproof TM Ref: ISO 6718 : 1991 Burs2ng disks and burs2ng disk devices www.bluerad.eu An injec6on moulded high tech co- polymer fire suppression device designed to release water where and when it is needed most in a fire. Unpowered and self targe6ng. Upon ac6va6on it releases water and tracks the movement of the fire. The water expands to create water vapor absorbing the energy from the fire. The water vapour suppresses the fire instantly reducing temperatures throughout the building. Holding back the fire spread. Pete Wignall Bluerad Client Liaison Designed with thin walled sec2ons, to ISO 6718, that fail open in response to heat and pressure.
