Automatic Sprinkler Testing

With more than 50 years’ experience in the Fire Protection Industry, the Founding Director Barry Byrne, designed & manufactured sprinklers that have been used internationally.

He is renowned throughout the industry & passed on his knowledge & experience of providing quality fire protection products within his family owned and operated business.

The model FL FIRE LINK Glass Bulb Fusible Link offers one of the fastest thermally activated links in the fire protection industry. It’s special slim design makes the FIRE LINK an attractive alternative for areas where automatic fire detection is required. The body is made from high strength brass alloy which can withstand the continuous high loads demanded in many applications. The FIRE LINK utilises a 5mm glass bulb, thus improving the sensitivity of this link over any other currently available, as well as offering the advantage of improved corrosion resistance over many solder based links.

The link is held together by the glass bulb, which breaks upon heating to it’s predetermined operating temperature. The load on the link then separates the two body halves, providing a reliable response to fire and overheating. These are available with various temperature settings, depending on their intended use.
