Protecting Your Microenvironment 
The Firetrace Advantage
The effectiveness of a genuine Firetrace system comes from our proprietary, polymer tubing that will rupture when exposed to a flame. This specialized Firetrace Detection Tubing combines leak resistance, flexibility, durability and precise temperature sensitivity, allowing it to react quickly when the heat from a fire is present. Our detection tubing connects to one of our custom engineered valves and a Firetrace cylinder that contains the best fire suppression agent for a particular hazard.
Designed for simple installation, often very near the source of a potential fire, Firetrace is a self-activating suppression system that reliably suppresses fires in seconds. We provide a low maintenance, costeffective solution to the problem of “micro-environment” fire protection. Micro-environments are applications where the hazard is typically contained within a critical enclosure, such as equipment, machines, vehicles, or storage compartments. Firetrace systems can be installed in virtually any enclosed space where high-value assets are located or where an increased risk of fire could be mitigated by an automatic fire suppression system.
Fire Trace International systems are currently safeguarding
over 250,000 micro-environments world-wide, including:

Honeywell announced that it has completed its acquisition of Xtralis, a leading global provider of aspirating smoke detection, advanced perimeter security technologies, and video analytics software for $480 million.
“Magic water” is what Shawn Mullen calls the fire-suppressing chemical Novec 1230. To demonstrate, he unscrews a brown bottle and pours several inches of the clear liquid into a large glass jar.
Protex Central (an industry leader in life-safety products and solutions through-out the midwest), has partnered with Accutech-RFID Enabled Sercurity Products. This partnerhip provides another strategic strength to the current line-up of; fire, security, nurse-call, access control, CCTV, mission critical suppression and supportive maintenance services Protex Central provides.
Hospitals, schools and institutions of higher education are actively seeking more robust emergency notification solutions, according to the results of Campus Safety magazine’s 2014 Emergency Notification survey.
Protex Central is proud to partner with OPPD for the 7th Annual Heat the Streets Run & Walk for Warmth Campaign held March 1, 2014.
