CO2 or Carbon dioxide is a colorless, odorless, electrically non-conductive gas…that’s highly efficient as a fire suppression agent. Carbon dioxide gas has a high rate of expansion, which allows a CO2 fire protection system to work fast. When applied to a fire, CO2 provides a heavy blanket of gas that reduces the oxygen level to a point where combustion cannot occur. Since carbon dioxide is a gas, there is no clean-up associated with a CO2 fire suppression system discharge…that’s minimal interruption to your business. With a CO2 system, clean-up costs and downtime associated with a CO2 discharge are negligible.
CO2 fire suppression system is extremely versatile, effective on a wide range of flammable and combustible materials and approved for Class A, B, and C hazards. Carbon Dioxide fire protection systems are available for use in total flooding or local fire protection applications – making it an effective fire protection system for a wide variety of hazards.
