Latching Solenoid with Burst Pin
The latching solenoid is designed for fire suppression systems that require high force to penetrate a burst disc.
This solenoid remains in the latched position until receiving the release signal from the system. It then quickly drives a pin through a burst disc into a compressed gas cylinder, releasing pressure through internal ports to move the extinguishing agent through the system. This component’s stroke, latching force, and port size can be customized to fit your cylinder’s requirements.

Improving the Delivery of Fire-Extinguishing Media
TLX designed a fast, high-latching force component to replace pyrotechnic burst devices in fire suppression applications.
TLX designs custom actuation for fire suppression systems, balancing certification, performance, and long-term reliability in every component, including:
Regulatory Compliance
Engineering expertise to help achieve UL, FM, CE, LPCB, & VdS certifications and listings, with compliance designed in from the first concept.
Complex Environments
Optimization of actuators and valves for applications requiring high pressure and high speed, from inert gas systems at 300 bar to hazardous locations.
Advanced Security
Fully engaged installation detected through integrated supervisory component as required. Designed to safeguard against tampering.
Increased Performance
Designed to handle various actuation force requirements across agent types and system pressures. Durable components can be reset after activation for future use.
Limiting Power Consumption
Latching technology utilized to minimize overall power consumption, holding the ready state for years on standby without drawing continuous current from the panel.
Custom Configuration
Interfacing options available to meet system dimensional differences. Optional manual actuation assembly and reset tool attachment.
