  • Aircraft fire protection: The Advantages of a fire

    extinguisher halon

    Halons are fire quenching agents which are vaporous when released in

    the aircraft environment. Halons have, as of not long ago, been in

    verging on widespread use in aircraft fire extinguisher halon, both fixed

    and portable. They exist in two structures - as Halon 1211,

    BromoChlorodiFluoromethane (CBrClF2) otherwise called 'BCF', and

    as Halon 1301, Bromotrifluoromethane (CBrF3). At the time of

    installation fire extinguisher halon 1301 is utilized.

    The adequacy of halons in dousing flames emerges from their activity in

    intruding on chain responses that engender the burning procedure.

    Halons are nonconductors of power and can be utilized as a part of

    battling flames in combustible fluids and most strong flammable

    materials, incorporating those in electrical hardware; they are inadequate

    on fills containing their own oxidizing specialists or very receptive

  • metals, for example, sodium or potassium. Halon 1301

    (bromotrifluoromethane) is particularly supported for extinguishing

    fires quenching flames including electronic equipments on the grounds

    that it leaves no deposit and does not bring about electrical short circuits

    or harming erosion of the component.

    Halons are electrically non-leading and have been recognized as the best

    widespread extinguishing agent for the aircraft purpose. They work

    principally by chemically interrupting as the 'Fire Triangle'(Fuel-

    Oxygen-Heat) which must be supported for a fire to proceed. They don't

    deliver residues and in this way don't bring about optional harm. In any

    case, the fumes are poisonous if breathed in and precaution needs to be

    taken when they are utilized.

    Every airplane created in the most recent thirty years has utilized Halon

    1301 for motor flame assurance and in numerous cases payload and dry

    straight security also. For all intents and purposes US Organizations

  • including the Military, FAA and PA have acknowledged the fire

    extinguisher halon 1301as essential use.

    Fire needs three components to flourish: fuel, oxygen and warmth. The

    most widely recognized smothering operators like water, carbon dioxide,

    dry synthetic and froths assault the flame physically to deny the flame of

    one or a greater amount of the three discriminating components required

    for proliferation. Fire extinguisher halon varies in the way it puts out the

    flame. It offers some of water's cooling impact and some of carbon

    dioxide's covering activity; however its crucial dousing method lies in its

  • ability to artificially respond with the fire's segments. fire extinguisher

    halon really intrudes on the chain response of flame.

    Water is extremely powerful on class a flames (normal combustibles like

    wood and paper). Halon is viable on basic combustibles but rather Halon

    is additionally viable on class B (combustible fluids), and it doesn't lead

    power back to the quencher administrator (class C).

    Halon is like CO2 in that it is suitable for utilization in chilly climate

    and leaves no deposit. Dissimilar to CO2, be that as it may, fire

    extinguisher halon does not dislodge the let some circulation into of the

  • zone where it is apportioned. Additionally, dissimilar to CO2, there is no

    threat of "cool stunning" flying or other delicate electrical gear. Hence

    with such advantages of fire extinguisher halon one can sale his/her old

    Halon to a company who re-use it in aircraft safety products.
