Fagus GreCon Inc.

The GreCon product brand is the market leader in the development and manufacturing of preventive fire protection systems, measuring equipment and inspection systems for many industries – including wood working, wood processing, and wood-based panels industries. Since 1911, Fagus-GreCon has created innovative technology to maximize production. Our goal is to assist our customers by providing technologically advanced equipment to ensure safer facilities, optimized production, and verifiable product quality. GreCon Spark Detection and Extinguishing Systems Fagus GreCon the leader in Spark Detection and Extinguishing Systems for 40+ years, helping eliminate early causes of fires and explosions. GreCon Spark Detection & Extinguishing Systems provide excellent preventive protection; it does not wait for an actual fire or dust explosion to erupt. The GreCon system prevents the development of these hazards by early detection and elimination of the ignition source. IR detectors monitor the conveying paths and activate high-speed water extinguishing fire hazards within milliseconds. GreCon Measuring Equipment With the primary goals to save you time and money, we offer systems to the wood industry that record and process almost every relevant measuring need and size our customers require. Our equipment includes edge inspection, thickness measurement, blow/delamination detection, fiber inspection, moisture measurement, length control, optimization of material/mat distribution and multiple laboratory measuring devices. | Processing powder & bulk creates sparks and embers that are quickly transported through conveying systems and can ignite product and waste dust causing fires and explosions. One of the most efficient measures to prevent fire or dust explosion is the early identification of the ignition source.GreCon Spark Detection is a preventative measure that can eliminate early causes of fires or dust explosions. Infrared Sensors detect sparks or embers and communicates to a control console that automatically activates programmable countermeasures, including water extinguishment, abort gates, firetraps, system shutdown, or other PLC actions. Factory Mutual Approved.GreCon’s newest equipment includes intelligent detection and extinguishment equipment. Our intelligent spark detector (DLD 1/9) which can differentiate between dangerous sparks or harmless incidence of extraneous light due to leaky/damaged pipes or an opening of an inspection flap. Along with our new intelligent extinguishment device which reliably extinguishes sparks while also monitoring early | At GreCon, Innovation is Our Tradition. For 50 years, GreCon has supplied measuring and fire prevention systems to the wood based panel industry. GreCon measuring technology can measure thickness, weight per unit area, edge quality, raw density and raw density profile, delaminations, moisture, particle size, press pressure and temperature, formaldehyde emissions, and weight. They do this by using the latest technologies including ultrasonic, laser, infrared, microwave, photography, and x-ray. Here are some of the latest innovations. New Measuring Systems FORMATOR for automatic mat optimization that provides homogenizes material distribution. THICKNESSCONTROL for reliable and accurate thickness measurement. STENOGRAPH for inline raw density profile that improves the quality feature of wood passed panels DELIMINATIONCONTROL series Blow Detection system with process optimizations option will deliver the maximum out of your panel production. With the GASANALYZER you get reliable formaldehyde emissions quickly that comply with EPA/CARB. DAX System provides density profile within a few seconds. The Microwave Moisture Meter with planar sensor is appropriate to measure wood chips and fibers. Foreign Object Detection CHIPINSPECTOR automatically separates foreign objects from raw material. Prevent Fires and Explosions in Dust Collection Systems GreCon Spark Detection and Extinguishing System is a preventive solution for dust collector fires and explosions. Material processing including sawing, sanding, drying, shredding, granulating and pelletizing can often cause sparks, which are typically the ignition source for fires and explosions in dust collectors and air filtration equipment. The GreCon spark detection system is designed to detect these hazards and extinguish sparks in the pneumatic conveying system before they reach dust collectors or storage bins. Infrared sensors detect spark, embers or hot particles transported through ductwork to a dust collector, and an extinguishing device is then triggered to effectively extinguish the spark within milliseconds. Other countermeasures can activate alarms, abort and diversion gates, shutdown equipment, or trigger PLC actions. Factory Mutual Approved and outlined in NFPA 69, 654, and 664 standards New innovations in Spark Detection & Extinguishing Systems The DLD 1/9 Spark Detector offers additional protection with the new intelligent detection technology (IDT). IDT not only identifies hazardous moving ignition sources before a fire breaks out, but the DLD 1/9 detector is able to differentiate between dangerous sparks or harmless incidence of extraneous light due to leaky/damaged pipes or an opening of an inspection flap. The new GreCon Intelligent Extinguishing Module (IEM) which reliably extinguishes sparks while also monitoring early wear recognition. The new smart GreCon IEM has sensors integrated into the extinguishing module to detect the wear of your nozzles while also monitoring low pressure flow to the nozzles. Thus, increasing plant and system availability with efficient planning of maintenance to reduce downtime. This innovative extinguishing system brings with it a number of advantages, such as: High-precision monitoring throughout the extinguishing process, Identification of blockages, Measurement
