The original
"clean" agent, carbon dioxide suppresses fire without
leaving behind an agent to damage sensitive equipment. And
because there is no agent to clean up, you’re back in
business faster.
To provide the most economical system arrangement without
sacrificing performance, we offer both High and Low pressure
systems.
CO2 fire systems work by replacing oxygen
with carbon dioxide, which is heavier than oxygen and by
cooling the fuel. The CO2 is released under high pressure
and changes from a liquid to a mist of tiny dry ice
particles which look like snow.
The CO2 absorbs the heat and smothers the fire within
seconds.
Generator/motor electrical control and
protection systems activate CO2 systems.
Design of such systems varies according to the specifics of
the CO2 system and machine being protected.
