CO2 Fire Suppression System
 

CO2 ( Carbon Deoxide )  gas has a high ratio of expansion which facilitates rapid discharge and allows for three dimensional penetration of the entire hazard area quickly.

Carbon Dioxide fire suppression systems will not normally damage sensitive electronic equipment. Carbon Dioxide has no residual clean-up associated with its use as a fire suppressing agent. When it is properly ventilated, the gas escapes to atmosphere after the fire has been extinguished.

Carbon Dioxide fire extinguishing systems can be used to protect a wide variety of hazards, from delicate electronic equipment to high-voltage electrical equipment, without danger or damage.

Carbon Dioxide Fire Suppression system consists of one or more bank of cylinder storage containers to supply the CO2 extinguishing agent. Flexible discharge bends, or hoses, connects the cylinders into a piping manifold. The manifold in turn distributes the agent into the piping network. Nozzles regulate the flow of CO2 into the protected area.

Before Carbon Dioxide is released into the protected facility, fire must be detected by a detection and control system. On Fike Protection Systems we make extensive use of the Intellascan fire detection and control panel. For Ansul systems we recommend the Autopulse series of Ansul detection and control panels. read more..
