CO2 Systems
CO2 systems are the preferred choice as an extinguishant for a multitude of critical facilities.
Fast, efficient and adaptable to a wide range of hazards, the discharge of carbon dioxide [a
low-cost clean agent] is non-damaging to property and electrically non-conductive. Multi-Hazard
Protection can be designed to provide automatic, simultaneous discharge for a variety of hazards
and configurations.
CO2 systems are used for:
- Power Generation
- Cement Plant/Blast Furnace Indirect Coal Firing Systems
- Metal Production and Processing
- Printing
- Automotive
- Electronics Operations
- Electronics/Computer Production
- Research Facilities
- Shipboard (Marine) Systems
- Automated Storage and Retrieval Facilities
Low pressure CO2 systems and equipment are best suited for applications where large quantities
of CO2 are needed. A high pressure systems are recommended for smaller hazards or where space is
limited.
Benefits of CO2
- Fast - Within seconds, CO2 penetrates the entire hazard areas to smother the combustion.
- Environmentally Friendly - CO2 exists as a gas in the earth's atmosphere and is one of the
by-products of combustion. It's use has no environmental impact.
- Non-damaging - CO2 does not cause spoilage, requires no clean up and leaves no residue.
- Non-conductive - CO2 is electrically non-conductive, allowing use for a wide variety of
special applications.
- Adaptive - CO2 is effective on a wide range of flammable and combustible materials.
Please contact your local APi Systems Group office for more information on CO2 systems.
