Cold storage fire protection
This UL Listed (with the Ultra K-17 sprinkler) and FM Approved fire sprinkler system allows you to store commodities up to 55 feet (16,8 m) high – 10 feet (3 m) higher than other sprinkler systems. It is offered globally through licensed contractors under the Quell brand. In Australia and New Zealand, it is sold as VanQuish.
Maximize Your Storage Space with Reduced Risk
With its increased height coverage, Quell / VanQuish helps owners maximize storage volume. Additionally, the system eliminates the costly false activations of damaged in-rack systems thanks to its ceiling-only protection. These systems are available through trained and authorized fire sprinkler professionals only – contact your Johnson Controls representative for details.
