hochiki

Hochiki America

Hochiki Corporation, a world leader in fire protection equipment, was founded in Japan in 1918. Since then, eighteen subsidiaries have been formed around the world, including manufacturing locations in Japan, the UK, and at Hochiki America Corporation in the United States.

Hochiki America has been manufacturing in Southern California since 1972 and is very proud of its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Buena Park, California. For over 45 years, Hochiki America has been a supplier of quality smoke detectors to the fire alarm industry.  Many of their customers are well-recognized companies such as Simplex (over 20 years), Silent Knight (over 20 years), Radionics, Bosch, Potter, Napco, and Fike.  These longstanding relationships are no coincidence - they are due to the fact that Hochiki offers the highest in quality workmanship at competitive pricing.  Quality is “built in” using only the finest in raw materials and the most advanced automated testing and manufacturing equipment available anywhere (from Hochiki America website

Our Products

FM200 / HFC227EA

Download Catalog

FM-200™ (HFC-227ea) is formed from the elements carbon, fluorine and hydrogen (CF3CHFCF3-heptafluoropropane). The primary extinguishing mechanism of FM-200™ is heat absorption, with a secondary chemical contribution from the thermal decomposition of FM-200™ in the flame.

FM-200™ fire suppressant (HFC-227ea) can be safely used where people are present.

When used at standard design concentrations, it is safe for occupied spaces. FM-200™ leaves no residue. Most common metals, such as aluminum, brass, steel, cast iron, lead, stainless steel, and copper, as well as rubber, plastic, and electronic components, are unaffected when exposed to FM-200™ (HFC-227ea).

NOVEC 1230

Download Catalog

NOVEC 1230 is an extinguishing agent similar to water in appearance, but with much more effective extinguishing properties, including the fact that it does not wet the materials it comes into contact with.

The discharge contains a colorless, nearly odorless, non-conductive and fast-evaporating liquid.

It has the lowest level of design concentration and a higher safety margin than the Halon 1301.

Its ozone depletion potential is zero. It extinguishes the fire thanks to a cooling effect, reducing the flame’s thermal power and interrupting the combustion reaction. It guarantees flooding of the room due to its low vaporization temperature. (Taken from Komtes Group website )

FIRE EXTINGUISHERS

Download Catalog

A fire extinguisher is an active fire protection device used to extinguish or control small fires, often in emergency situations. It is not intended for use on an out-of-control fire, such as one which has reached the ceiling, endangers the user (i.e., no escape route, smoke, explosion hazard, etc.), or otherwise requires the expertise of a fire brigade. Typically, a fire extinguisher consists of a hand-held cylindrical pressure vessel containing an agent that can be discharged to extinguish a fire. Fire extinguishers manufactured with non-cylindrical pressure vessels also exist but are less common. (taken from wikipedia)

INERT GAS

Download Catalog

IG-100 100 uses Nitrogen for a clean, safe and 100% ecological extinguishment. This gas is widely used in a variety of extinguishing systems due to its excellent pressurization conditions.

In this case it complies with equal smothering efficiency by reducing the oxygen concentration to extinguish the fire, while leaving a percentage of oxygen suitable for occupied areas. Due to this feature, hazards can be protected where there is the possibility that people will be in the enclosure at the time of the fire, ensuring their safe evacuation both in terms of the level of oxygen in the room, and the absence of chemicals in the discharge. In addition, its physical and dispersion properties help maintain visibility during the evacuation.. (Taken from Komtes Group website )

Avenger K Restaurant Fire Suppression System

Avenger offers two systems to meet the industry’s varying needs. With the Avenger K Restaurant Fire Suppression System you get appliance-specific coverage that typically
offers lower initial cost. The AK system is ideal for uses where appliance location is fixed such as in fast food chains, casual dining, cruise ships and school cafeterias.

Avenger Flex Restaurant Fire Suppression System

The Avenger Flex Restaurant Fire Suppression System adds greater flexibility by letting you reconfigure a kitchen or move appliances without moving nozzles. Because of its adaptability, this system is the most cost effective choice
over the life of the system. The AF system was designed with fine dining, culinary schools, military facilities, hotels and hospitals in mind. (taken from Avenger website)

CARBON DIOXIDE

Download Catalog

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a colorless, odorless, and chemically inert gas that is both readily available and electrically non-conductive. It extinguishes fire primarily by lowering the level of oxygen that supports combustion in a protected area. This mechanism of fire suppression makes CO2 suppression systems highly effective, requiring minimal clean-up, but should be used in normally unoccupied hazard locations or otherwise avoided by personnel when discharged. CO2 suppression systems may utilize the gas through a total flooding approach but carbon dioxide is also the only gaseous agent that may be utilized through local application. Carbon dioxide may be stored in either high pressure spun steel cylinders (HPCO2 suppression systems) or low pressure light wall refrigerated tanks (LPCO2 suppression systems).
