Fires caused by home appliances are no rarity. The majority of such fires are caused by faults in the electric system of devices. An ever increasing number of electronic devices at home also increase the risk of fires. In combination with late or no fire detection by consumers’ often ill equipped homes, financial damages, and even loss of lives are common. For appliance manufactures, the financial and reputation damages by a product recall can be devastating. JOB’s E-Bulb is a component based on the functional principles of the billion-fold used and approved sprinkler bulb. In standard conditions, E-Bulb carries currents of up to 16A and does not affect the electrical functionality of a device. In case of a starting fire, E-Bulb reacts reliably and without the need for power by bursting at a defined temperature. The JOB E-Bulb is filled with 3M™ NOVEC™ which is released when the bulb bursts, extinguishing the fire directly on the PCB based upon the well-known and proven functionality of NOVEC™. At the same time, by the E-Bulb bursting and destroying the conductivity, the energy supply is permanently interrupted, preventing a fire from re-igniting. While E-Bulb cannot prevent electric faults – it can extinguish starting fires and prevent loss of property values and lives! E-Bulb made by JOB is the economical and reliable solution against fires in home appliances caused by electric faults For further information about this and our other innovative fire protection solutions, please contact JOB by email at [email protected] or via our website at www.job-group.de.
