Early Warning Fire Detection, Smouldering Detection and CO Monitoring Control System
CMC supplies Robecco Early Warning Fire Detection CO System and Robecco Dust Control solutions that help detect smouldering fires early, reduce risks, prevent contamination, and maintain high productivity levels.
Understanding Fire and Explosion Risks
Fires and explosions present significant risks to people, the environment, and production facilities. These incidents can lead to severe heat and pressure build-up. The safety of any installation depends on the risk factors associated with its processes and products.
In the spray drying process, high temperatures and the properties of materials can create dangerous smouldering fires. To address this, the use of Carbon Monoxide (CO) analysis for early fire detection is highly recommended. This method follows the VDI guideline 2263, parts 7 and 7.1, which outlines proven technology for fire safety.
Early detection of smouldering fires allows operators to take action to stop the spread of fire. Continuous monitoring of Carbon Monoxide (CO) is essential to prevent fires and explosions.

Ignition Sources
Common ignition sources that can lead to fires include:
- Smouldering nests
- Hot surfaces
- Mechanically-induced sparks
- Sparking electrical equipment
- Flames
- Electrostatic discharges
These sources can ignite combustible dust in powder-air mixtures, increasing the risk of explosion. To minimise this, you can use the robecco Dryer Protection and robecco Dust Control System.
