Abstract

The device is intended to be applied in large tanks which contain inflammable products and are used in refineries and/or hydrocarbon plants in order to put out immediately a fire produced at the surface. The device includes a container (1) for the fire-resistant product, an envelope (6) of material which is not susceptible of being attacked by vapors or liquids, and an explosive charge capsule (9) from which are derived wicks (11) which, when ignited, will produce the activation of the explosive charge of the capsule (9) and the corresponding dispersion of the fire-resistant product, fire-retardant agent or fire extinguisher, from the container (1), the latter being comprised of two metal plates or discs (2) which have been rigidified in parallel to each other by means of spacing rods (3) and being provided with radial baffles plates (4) which are intended to disperse the flame-proofing product by projecting it to the sides to maximize the efficiency in fire extinguishing operations.
