Hi further to your question about cabinet protection and leakage from cabinets, i have installed several systems using Firetrace, where the tubing is secured around the inside of the cabinet and the system is discharged by the tubing being "melted" at the hot spot, or is discharged indirectly from nozzles mounted within the cabinet, signalled from a detector(s) within the cabinet. The cylinder can be mounted adjacent to the cabinet and has several different options for type of suppressant.

if its any help I'm in Belfast later this week

Not mentioned as a standard UK stock product on Gloria.co.uk, but Gloria does still make them:

Sadly you need to speak German as UTC got rid of their old (& better) dual language site

Mr Buzzard - Thanks for suggesting Firetrace (I admit a vested interest!!) Ok - in any case for anyone interested and to make the product as self explanatory as possible without a salesman darkening anybody's doorstep we have uploaded videos for different "in-cabinet" solutions to Youtube. so go to www.youtube.com and just search for "Firetrace" and you'll find a whole bunch of stuff relating to electrical cabinets, bus engines, wind turbines, vehicles and all kinds of (as the Americans say) "Micro-Enclosures... or local applications... and Firetrace is approved (FM, CE, UL + many others) for use worldwide including ze fatherland!
