Deluge systems offer rapid fire suppression for high-hazard industrial environments where instant cooling and protection is crucial. Rotaflow designs and engineers modular flood skid solutions for refineries, chemical industries, power generation sites and oil and gas facilities. Designed for rapid deployment, they are guaranteed to cover the area reliably and meet strict fire protection regulations.
Rotaflow offers modular deluge skid kits, designing, testing, installation and maintenance for industrial fire protection.
Pre-assembled modular deluge skid solutions for quick installation, smooth integration and reliable fire suppression performance in industrial and high hazard sites. Systems are built to meet the needs of the site, tested for operation prior to deployment, and designed to enable operational efficiency and regulatory compliance.
Rotaflow specialise in deluge fire protection systems for refineries, chemical plants, power generation and oil and gas. Hydraulic calculations, risk-based system architectures, equipment coordination, and NFPA, ULC, and FM Global fire protection code compliance for challenging industrial environments are part of our engineering services.
Deluge piping systems are installed and integrated with fire alarm, electrical, instrumentation and structural systems for dependable activation and coordinated fire protection performance. Rotaflow offers installation planning, field coordination, commissioning support and system verification to ensure safe and effective project execution.
Services also include inspection and testing of deluge fire protection systems for operational verification, performance assessments, preventative maintenance and compliance checks. Rotaflow provides regular inspections, troubleshooting, repairs and testing to help facilities keep systems ready to operate and reliable over the long term.
Rotaflow offers modifications to deluge systems, equipment replacement, nozzle upgrades, pipe changes and hydraulic performance improvements for current industrial fire protection systems. The upgrade services will be customised to improve coverage, operational efficiency and compliance with little disruption to the day-to-day operations of the facility.

A deluge system uses open nozzles and activates simultaneously over a wide area when triggered, while a sprinkler system has closed nozzles that activate individually based on heat detection
Deluge systems are typically installed in high-hazard areas such as oil refineries, chemical plants, power generation facilities, and storage terminals where rapid fire spread is a concern.
NFPA 15 requires system actuation valves to have a manual mechanism of actuation that is independent of the automatic release system—so the system can still be activated if detection or automatic actuation fails. Manual controls also are limited to not requiring more than 40 lbf of pull force or more than 14 inches of travel to work, so that emergency activation is quick and accessible under stress.
NFPA 15 specifies that flow from any single nozzle (of the smallest installed orifice size) or any group of non-automatic nozzles must cause an audible on premises alarm to be activated within 90 seconds of flow beginning. The alarm of a separate detection system which activates the water spray system shall also be independently operated of water flow so that the operators would be aware that the detection system fired even if flow is delayed or halted.
NFPA 15 mandates the observation of the discharge pattern of each spray nozzle to determine that no nozzles are plugged, that each is appropriately positioned and that patterns are unobstructed to wet the desired surfaces. Water supply performance verification is performed by taking pressure readings at the hydraulically most remote nozzle and at the system actuation valve and comparing them to the original design values.
NFPA 15 requires that the system actuation valves themselves be listed, and any accessories used to operate that valve must also be listed and compatible with it – meaning a facility can’t swap in an unlisted or mismatched accessory component, even if it appears to function correctly, without compromising code compliance.
Not always. NFPA 15 does not mandate a fire department connection for systems in remote locations where fire department assistance is not readily available, for large capacity systems exceeding the pumping capacity of the fire department or for ultra-high speed water spray systems, as in each case the fire department connection would not provide any significant increase in the protection capability of the system.
