Pricing

A price list with no prices. Here's why

Autonomous suppression isn't sold by the unit. It's sold by the zone. The same hall might need two modules or fifteen, depending on what's inside it and how it's laid out. A fixed price per unit would either be padded or would quietly leave something out. So instead you'll find exactly what the price is made of, and which parts you pay once and which come round again.

How the price is built

Four things that decide the figure

These are the variables a technician goes through with you. Until they're known, any number would be invented.

1

Number of zones

A zone is a self-contained unit: one thermal sensor and one to six MPH modules. A single sensor can fire up to 16 modules. An electroplating plant took fifteen MPH-10st units on the ceiling in March 2024, fifteen MPH-0.65 inside the distribution cabinets, and four MPH-5 as hand-held units. An e-bike workshop a year later needed four MPH-2.8 and two sensors. Both count as "one site".

2

Zone area and volume

The MPH-2 covers 25 m² for class A; the MPH-24 covers seventy-five and throws 20 metres. Seven models sit between them. And it isn't only about square metres — for class B (liquids) the same module covers considerably less, so an oil store and a cardboard store of identical size won't come out the same.

3

Installation and access

An authorised technician swaps a suppression lamp for the original light fitting in around 30 minutes. A three-room flat with three to six systems is done in three to five hours. Recessing into a plasterboard ceiling, a cable duct under a raised floor, or a tower exposed to frost and wind is another matter entirely.

4

Inspections and environment

The twelve-year service life holds with regular inspections — once a year for suppression lamps. In industry we come every six months, because the environment demands it: vibration, acidic fumes, frost. That's a recurring cost and it belongs in the sums from the start, not in year three.

What's at stake

Putting a fire out doesn't end the damage. Sometimes it causes it

Aupark, 2016: a fire in the cable runs of its data nodes. The automatic water suppression did more damage than the fire itself — it flooded the shops one floor below and put the building's entire CCTV system out of action for close to three months. At Nidec Global Appliance, gas suppression failed to put out a furnace and was destroyed in the process.

At Hubert Schmid Recycling a waste site burned down with damage in the millions and crews fighting it for days. The system went in over the turn of 2016/2017. In mid-2017 the same buildings caught fire again — this time with no damage to property.

What to do about it

Dry powder with cold gas leaves electronics and antiques untouched and harms neither people nor animals. It handles classes A, B, C and E including transformers up to 40,000 V, works from −65 to +125 °C, and vacuums or sweeps up afterwards. It needs no electricity and no operator — the sensor triggers on its own once the temperature holds above the threshold for more than 20 seconds, and instantly on a sharp spike above 150 °C. You don't need to be in the building, let alone standing there.

Scope

Three situations, three scopes

These aren't boxes on a shelf. It's a split by what you're protecting — and that's what changes what ends up in the quote.

Household

Flat, house, cabin

A suppression lamp replaces the ceiling light and watches the room at the same time. The 6A model covers 50 m² and 150 m³ and triggers above 72 °C. Czech tests in 2025 showed that one central unit is enough in a room without obstructions — with a large table, a sofa or a bookcase in the way, you need two lamps.

Lamps 2.8 / 2.8 A / 4A / 6A in gold, black, white and silver
Available with a built-in sensor or with a separate central sensor
Around 30 min per fitting; a three-room flat in 3–5 hours
Inspection once a year

Commercial site

Workshop, store, garage, server room

Here you're dealing with several zones at once — ceiling, cabinets, cable ducts. The MPH-0.65 (1.2 m²) goes inside distribution cabinets, larger modules on the ceiling. The powder works up to 40,000 V without harming electronics, which in a server room or a CCTV system is the difference between replacing a cartridge and replacing the kit.

MPH-0.65 up to MPH-10st, chosen per zone
TPS-01 sensors in 72 / 93 / 110 °C variants
TPS-01C with a signal channel to the fire panel, alarm and GSM module with SMS
MPH-10st with an adjustable discharge angle for production lines and conveyors

Industry

Chemicals, manufacturing, rail machines, waste

Conditions an ordinary module won't survive. The transport-grade "T" build takes vibration, acidic air and high temperatures; the SuperSeal connector rules out any contact between the environment and live electrics, which makes the system usable underground in mines. TPS-02 and TPS-03 sensors work from 120 to 220 °C.

Transport-grade modules MPH-2.8T, MPH-5T, MPH-24T
TPS-01T sensors against vibration; TPS-02 / TPS-03 up to 220 °C
Raptor (300 m²) and Ranger (675 m², up to 25 m reach) mobile systems
Service inspection every 6 months

You won't find a "most popular choice" label here, and that's deliberate. We have nothing to back it up with, so it would be a sticker and nothing more. The middle scope sits in the middle because it falls between a household and heavy industry — not because we're steering you towards it.

Costs

What the quote contains — all of it, up front

None of this surfaces at the end. The quote is an itemised list and every entry has its own line, so you can see what you're paying for and what can be dropped.

One-off, at purchase

MPH modules, counted by zone and floor area
TPS thermal sensors — count and temperature variant to suit the location
Design of the zone layout
Installation by an authorised SAPFIR technician
Transport and delivery to the installation site

Recurring, across the service life

Annual inspection — for suppression lamps this is the condition of the 12-year guarantee
Service inspection every 6 months in industrial environments
Cartridge replacement after a discharge — for a recessed lamp, without dismantling the ceiling
Optional SA-01 alarm and GSM module texting nominated numbers

Extras are never pre-ticked. If you don't need something, it won't be in there.

Why we spell this out: unexpected costs at the end are the single most common reason people abandon a purchase — 39 %, according to the Baymard Institute's aggregation of 50 studies (2025). We'd rather put it here.

VAT

You'll see prices both ways

A household cares about the sum it actually pays — VAT included. A business works in net prices, because it reclaims the VAT. So every quote carries both: the gross figure as the headline, the net figure beneath it. That isn't a courtesy, it's the requirement of Directive 98/6/EC — the final price must never be hidden from a consumer.

Once the manufacturer issues a valid price list, it will appear here in the same format: the gross figure first, net beneath it.

Overview

The range, and where prices stand

Until the manufacturer issues a valid price list, every model reads "price on request". That's less convenient than a number, but a number we'd made up would be no use to you — the quote would come out different anyway.
