Innovation in the fire protection of hospitals

The Danfoss SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist system is an advanced fire protection solution for healthcare facilities, no matter the size, whether modern or old.

Due to its characteristics, high-pressure water mist provides an opportunity to rethink the traditional ways of designing fire-safe buildings while offering architectural freedom and economic benefits for building owners.

Danfoss has become part of the Danish healthcare transformation journey by successfully installing SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist systems in the new generation of super hospitals, such as the ones in Aarhus, Gødstrup, Aalborg, Odense, and Køge.

SEM-SAFE® in short

SEM-SAFE® is a high-pressure water mist fire protection system that uses micro-droplets released through nozzles into protected areas.

It comprises:

  • a modular and resistant pump unit,

  • easy-to-service section valves,

  • excellently performing water mist nozzles,

  • high-quality press fittings, and

  • thin wall pipes made of stainless steel.

Intelligent use of water

The excellent properties of the high-pressure water mist technology make SEM-SAFE® the optimal choice for hospitals, facilitating the safe evacuation of people.

For a fire to be sustained, the three elements of the ‘fire triangle’ need to be present at the same time: oxygen, heat, and combustible material. The removal of any one of these elements will extinguish a fire. The uniqueness of water mist is that it combines the suppression effect of gas and traditional sprinkler systems. In addition to removing oxygen like gas systems do, it simultaneously cools the fire like a traditional sprinkler. The cooling effect also lowers the risk of re-ignition.

Key benefits

The benefits of the SEM-SAFE® water mist system are enormous. It can put out fires in seconds without using any chemical additives, with minimal water consumption and close to no water damage, making it one of the most environmentally friendly and efficient fire safety systems available, which is also totally safe for humans.
