11.1 Product description and operation

FlameShield

1

 is a fire suppression generator designed to be 

installed directly into the filter system. FlameShield is activated 
by the ShieldControl fire detection panel 5 seconds after a fire 
alarm.

The FlameShield is designed to suppress or extinguish filter fires 
of EN 2 Class A and NFPA 10 Class A (normal or solid 
combustible material in Plymovent filters). 

In 5 to 10 seconds, the filter volume closed by the sliding valves 
is filled with a potassium aerosol. This material reacts with the 
free radicals in the flame. The free radicals react with the 
aerosol instead of the fuel and the chain reaction is stopped 
immediately. The residue is a negligible amount of harmless and 
stable potassium hydroxide salt (KOH). This reaction also uses 
energy from the fire. 
After activation the aerosol remains active for at least 30 
minutes, which also prevents the fire from starting up again. 

11.1.1 Transport and storage

To avoid damage, the following conditions for transport and 
storage should be adhered to.
- Do not drop.
- Store between -50 and +100°C (-58 and +212°F).
- Relative humidity during transport and storage: max. 98%.

If FlameShield is stored in accordance with the above-
mentioned conditions, shelf life of the aerosol generator is 15 
years. 

11.2 Installation

Refer to Fig. I on page 28 for the required number, type

 and 

position of FlameShield aerosol generator in MDB filter 
system. 

Final installation position of FlameShield must be as follows.

E FlameShield module

Fig. 11.1

To install the FlameShield module(s), proceed as follows. 

Fig. 11.2

Assemble the mounting bracket (part A + B). 

Drill 2 x 2 holes in the framework of the MDB housing in 
accordance with the supplied drilling template.

Mount the junction box (C) along with the mounting bracket 
using the supplied bolts, washers and nuts. 

Place a cable gland (F) in the junction box using one of the 
knock-out cable entries. 

Guide the cable through the cable gland into the junction 
box. 

Place the FlameShield module (E) in the bracket. Make sure 
to push the generator to the middle stop (D) to ensure the 
correct flow direction of 10°. 

Fasten tightly.

1. FlameShield is the name used by Plymovent for the use of FirePro 

aerosol generators in Plymovent filter systems. FirePro is a product 

of Celanova Ltd. Listing and certifications are registered under the 

name FirePro.

2. Number and type of FlameShield aerosol fire extinguishing 

generators has been calculated by certified personnel in conformity 

with BRL-KZ 3003 and NFPA 2010, based on filter class A, E, safety 

factor 1.3 and min. concentration of 55.29 g/m² effective 

component.

WARNING

Failure to use the correct number, type and position of 
the FlameShield generators will prejudice the effective 
fire response.

Use one of the predrilled holes in the junction box 
housing to mount it. The box can be mounted using 
only one mounting point.
