Ind Dust Fume Extractor – Dust Extractor
FireBOX GA
In laser processing and fume-heavy industrial environments, ensuring fire safety is non-negotiable. The FireBOX GA from Donaldson BOFA offers an advanced, fully integrated gas-based fire suppression solution. Specifically designed to work with fume extraction systems, this intelligent safety module deploys extinguishing gas automatically to neutralise fires at the source.
Distributed in India by United Spectrum Instruments, the FireBOX GA protects your staff, equipment, and facility by detecting abnormal heat rises or flames and suppressing them with minimal damage. It is a critical add-on for businesses relying on laser marking, welding, coding, or cutting systems, where particulate and VOC build-up could become ignition points.
Understanding FireBOX GA
The FireBOX GA adds an extra layer of safety to extraction systems by using gas extinguishing technology. Once a fire risk is detected, it quickly releases the suppression agent into the extraction system, neutralising ignition before it can spread. Designed for compatibility with BOFA systems, it is compact, reliable, and easy to integrate. Its automated fire detection and response reduce dependency on manual intervention, making it an essential solution for industries handling flammable dust and fumes.

FAQs
What type of fire does the FireBOX GA suppress?
The FireBOX GA uses a clean agent gas, effective against electrical fires and combustible dust within extraction systems. It leaves no residue.
Is it compatible with all BOFA extraction units?
Yes, it is specifically designed for seamless operation with BOFA’s iQ range, including the AD 500 iQ, 1000 iQ, PVC iQ, and Oracle iQ systems.
How is the system triggered?
A built-in thermal sensor array constantly monitors the temperature. If it exceeds safe thresholds, the unit triggers gas release and halts airflow.
Does it require maintenance?
Minimal maintenance is required. Sensors are factory-calibrated and system status can be monitored via the extraction unit’s iQ interface.
Can I retrofit the FireBOX GA into existing systems?
Yes. The FireBOX GA is designed for easy retrofitting and requires minimal tools. It supports inline or side-by-side configurations.
