Feasibility about application of spark detection & extinguishing system in textile industry

Fire and dust explosion will bring great damage to the textile industry.The ignition source is one of the conditions which will lead to accidents.If sparks can be detected before the accident,the accident can be prevented.A spark detection extinguishing system is thus proposed and its application feasibility in the textile industry is discussed.The paper introduced the working principle of the spark detection extinguishing system and the basic compositions of the spark detection extinguishing system for use in the pipe,analyzed the spark sources in the textile industry,and discussed the installation position of the spark detection extinguishing system.The greatest advantage of the spark detection extinguishing system is to extinguish the spark immediately,without affecting the normal operation of a mill.It is suitable for prevention of dust explosion in the textile industry.But for complete elimination of fire and explosion hazards,other effective measures must be taken.
