The Pneumatic system operates automatically and independent of any power supply, which is a key advantage, as the system is able to automatically operate and suppress fire in spaces even when people are not present. The system operation is based on a pneumatic detection tubing technology which is sensitive to high temperatures allowing the system to discharge instantly on the detection of fire.
The Electronic system has a customisable operation of the system that can be automatic, manual, or a combination of both. There is also the ability to delay a discharge or have a manual discharge only, if the system is in an occupied area. The electronic systems can be customised for equipment with higher operating temperatures.
