Definition of Object Protection with Sinorix

This definition relates to the protection of machine tools in the metalworking sector. The goal of the
protection is to smother any liquid fire that arises from cooling or lubricating oil (turning, milling,
grinding) or from an inflammable dielectric (cavity erosion) within the first seconds of its appearance.
In principle, the intended protection goal when using an object protection installation with Sinorix
deco STD is to limit the fire to this object. Any spread of the fire to neighbouring objects and/or to the
room in which the object is located must be effectively prevented. Minimal damage to the object or
part of the object will be accepted in individual cases.
The rapid deployment of an Sinorix
the re-use of the object possible after minor and reasonable repair work. The Lifdes
is positioned according to the fire risk, so that it lies as close as possible to an expected source of the
fire. If there are other plastic components, such as cables and hoses, in the immediate vicinity, these
could suffer light burn marks. If there are no such components in the vicinity of the fire, the fire will be
extinguished without any damage.
The installation of a pressure relief valve is recommended for machines that work at high speeds and
thereby cause an oil mist with very small droplet size. For the dimensioning of this pressure relief
valve, a standard value of an opening of 10 dm
(depending on the opening pressure or the technical implementation in light assembly).

Proper usage

The extinguisher system is only intended for use as an object extinguisher system to combat fires in
metal working machine tools for which there is a fire risk. Any use going beyond this will be regarded
as improper.
Proper usage includes the observation of and compliance with the safety rules in this operating
manual and the maintenance and repair instructions. The extinguisher system may only be operated
by instructed and authorised personnel. The manufacturer and the installer will accept no liability for
damage that is caused by improper operation or by persons who have not been instructed in the use
of the system.
When instructing the personnel, the operator must place special importance on instructions regarding
the related dangers and the corresponding safety measures.
Any faults or the incorrect initiation of the extinguisher system must be immediately reported to the
installer. Modifications, additions or conversions to the extinguisher system that could impair safety
are not to be carried out. The manufacturer and the installer will accept no liability for damage caused
by a fire as a result of modifications to the extinguisher system.
