If you’re a Water Mist Fire Suppression System Manufacturer or Special Hazard Fire Suppression Company working on chemical plants, substations, or high-load storage facilities, you’ve likely had this conversation:
“Can we use water mist in this project?”
The answer is usually “Yes, but…”
- It’s hard to find a proven system.
- Mist nozzles don’t reach far.
- Custom engineering is expensive.
- OEM options are limited.
At RohrePumps, we’ve solved this.
We supply OEM-ready water mist turbines that drop directly into your system — no new certifications, no engineering from scratch. You bring the approvals. We bring the turbine.

Why Integrators Are Adding Water Mist Turbines to Their System Portfolio
Industrial fires aren’t just about extinguishing anymore. Your customers demand:
- Cleaner suppression with less water
- Reduced damage to high-value assets
- Coverage for hard-to-reach areas
- Faster response time
That’s exactly where water mist turbines outperform traditional systems.
They combine 360° directional range, variable spray modes, and fine droplet mist — all in one unit that you control.
💡 And no, you don’t need high-pressure pumps or complex plumbing.
Water Mist Turbine 101 — Built for Integrators, Not DIY Projects
The TT-9 water mist turbine (developed by RohrePumps under the THINKTANK Group) is designed specifically as a modular component for certified fire systems.
What it does:
- Atomizes water into ultra-fine droplets (≤0.1 mm)
- Projects mist over long distances using a propeller
- Switches between mist, full jet, or hybrid spray
- Covers multiple fire zones from one fixed point
Why integrators use it:
- Fully automatic control via your PLC or detection system
- Standard 4–16 bar water input (no exotic pumps)
- CAN-bus, dry contact, or remote controller compatible
- Works with foam, water, or mixed agents
- Internal heating for winter operation
- Available with multiple nozzle head configurations

Where Water Mist Turbines Win Projects
Your clients don’t buy turbines.
They buy confidence — in cooling, containment, and reduced post-fire impact.
As an integrator, you’re constantly balancing fire risk, infrastructure limits, and customer expectations. The TT-9 water mist turbine gives you an edge — not just because it’s smart, but because it solves high-risk problems that conventional systems can’t handle.
🔹 Chemical & Petrochemical: Vapor Clouds, Bunds, and Cooling from Distance
In a refinery or solvent terminal, fire protection isn’t just about extinguishing — it’s about preventing explosions.
A tank leak or valve rupture can release volatile gases that ignite before anyone sees flames. Sprinklers won’t help. Deluge systems flood everything. Foam takes time to activate.
With turbine-based water mist:
- The TT-9 turbine can auto-activate on gas detection, blanketing vapor clouds before ignition.
- Fine mist absorbs radiant heat from hot equipment and cools tanks from a safe distance — up to 50 meters.
- Lower water volume avoids overflowing bund areas, a common design pain point.
💡 Your customer gets clean control, less water damage, and better uptime — and you don’t need foam tanks or new piping.
🔹 Power Facilities & Substations: Suppress Fire Without Compromising Equipment
Electrical fires are all about containment. A short circuit or transformer failure can escalate into full-blown outages and million-dollar losses.
Traditional water jets can cause secondary faults, and gaseous systems have coverage gaps.
Here’s what TT-9 turbine offers:
- Fine mist does not conduct electricity, making it ideal for energized zones.
- Cools down overheated switchgear or cable trays fast — no residue, no corrosion.
- Turbine mist can be precisely aimed to prevent spread, while leaving sensitive areas untouched.
🛡️ You deliver a system that protects equipment — not destroys it.
🔹 Warehouses & Logistics: High Racking? No Problem.
Fire in a high-bay warehouse often hides in pallets, packaging, or between racks. Sprinklers struggle to reach it. Water volume becomes a liability.
The turbine changes this:
- 360° rotation lets you cover up to 5000 m² from one point.
- Fine mist fills gaps between stored goods and suppresses fire even in blocked aisles.
- Reduced water use means less runoff, lower damage, and faster reopening.
📦 One integrator used TT-9 turbine in a cold storage site — the customer avoided freezing, flooding, and inventory losses.
🔹 Waste, Recycling, Timber Yards: Multiple Risks, No Room for Error
These sites are dynamic — hot spots move, flammable loads change, wind affects everything. You can’t rely on static systems alone.
Turbine-based mist adapts in real time:
- Auto-starts via smoke or gas sensors — before flames break out.
- Covers open areas, conveyors, piles without needing pipe networks.
- Reduces emissions by scrubbing smoke and airborne particles.
🌲 In a recent timber mill fire, a TT-9 water mist turbine mounted on a rooftop prevented a fire from spreading to sawdust silos — saving 70% of the operation.
Turbine-Based Mist Systems VS. Nozzle-Based Systems
Traditional water mist systems rely on pressurized nozzles, often installed in ceilings. These have limited range and are less flexible in outdoor or complex environments.
Turbine-based mist systems — like the TT-9 turbine— use a propeller to blow fine mist up to 50 meters, and project full jet streams up to 80 meters.
| Feature | Nozzle-Based | Turbine-Based |
|---|---|---|
| Reach | ~5–10 m | ~50–80 m |
| Spray Control | Fixed | Mist / Jet / Combined |
| Coverage | Static zones | 360° rotation, tilt -19°~+43° |
| Setup | Requires piping grid | Standalone or integrated |
| Use Case | Indoor rooms | Industrial, tunnels, open-air sites |
How Water Mist Firefighting Systems Work
Water mist systems atomize water into droplets ≤ 1 mm, vastly increasing the exposed surface area for heat absorption. Here’s why that matters:
| Droplet Size | Surface Area (per 1 L) |
|---|---|
| 1.0 mm | ~6 m² |
| 0.1 mm | ~60 m² |
| 0.01 mm | ~600 m² |
Benefits of water mist:
- Rapid heat absorption = faster cooling
- Oxygen displacement (inerting)
- Radiant heat blocking = less spread
- Smoke/gas suppression via particle binding
- Minimal water = less runoff, lower damage
💡 Mist extinguishes Class A, B, and F fires with higher efficiency and less mess.
Real-World Scenario: A Better Alternative to Deluge Systems
Project: Large fuel storage facility retrofit
Old System: Sprinklers + foam deluge
Problem: High water damage, foam residue, long restart time
New Design (Your Role):
- Fire detection triggers turbine mist within 2 seconds
- Initial fine mist suppresses vapor and cools tanks
- Operator switches to full jet for targeted attack
- No foam used, no runoff to treat
Result:
- Less water, no system corrosion
- Faster post-event cleanup
- Insurance approved
- Client impressed — you win future scope
