Protecfire’s core technology — the detexline® system — is a fundamental rethink of how automatic fire suppression should work in demanding environments. Developed, patented and manufactured in Germany, it combines thermo-pneumatic detection, a non-pressurised container, and fine-spray extinguishing into a single, fully mechanical platform. No pressurised pipework. No electricity. No false activations. Just one stainless-steel line for both detection and extinguishing, engineered to perform reliably from −30 °C to +80 °C across mining, transport, marine, wind, kitchen and industrial applications.
This fully mechanical design eliminates the weak links of conventional systems — pressure gauges, batteries, sensors and control panels that can fail under vibration, heat or moisture. The result is ultra-fast reaction times (RTI 12), pinpoint accuracy on hidden fires, and decades of reliable service in the harshest conditions. Paired with our proprietary TiboRex Absolute extinguishing agent — a 100% fluorine-free, biodegradable and non-toxic liquid with exceptional cooling and oxygen-displacing properties — every Protecfire system is engineered for maximum performance and the long-term safety of people, assets and the environment.
Years in Service
Every component of the detexline® system is purpose-built to maximise speed of response, minimise maintenance, and eliminate the common failure points of conventional suppression systems. The result is a robust, long-life fire protection platform used and trusted worldwide.
A patented argon-gas detector triggered by a temperature fuse bulb, delivering ultra-fast RTI 12 response with no false alarms and multiple temperature ratings from 57 °C to 260 °C
Stainless-steel bars discharging millions of fine agent droplets across a huge cooling surface, with up to 90° spray angle and installation times cut by more than 50%
Only pressurised at the moment of activation, eliminating leaks, gauges and routine pressure checks; can be installed in any position or orientation
A 100% fluorine-free, biodegradable and non-toxic liquid agent with powerful cooling, oil/fat blanketing, and UV + DNA-verifiable residue tracking
Liquid extinguishing followed by nitrogen propellant discharge, simultaneously cooling the fire and displacing oxygen to prevent re-ignition
One stainless-steel line performs both detection and extinguishing, dramatically reducing complexity, weight and installation time
Weather-resistant, highly robust manual release operable up to 20 metres from the tank (or further with a booster)
Fully mechanical, low-maintenance, stainless-steel construction engineered for the harshest mining, marine and industrial environments
