Abstract

The spark detector (10), fixed in or on the pipeline (1,1-1), emits an identification signal if an area of excessive temperature is identified, particularly a spark or a source of fire. A shut-off device (15) or cellular wheel sluice with a braking driving device (14,16), fixed in the pipeline downline from the spark detector, is designed to interrupt movement flow at the appropriate identification signal. During pneumatic movement of goods a gas shut-off device such as Zyklon is introduced into the sluice. A water spraying device (17-19), fitted between the spark detector and the shut-off device, douses any spark or source of fire.
