CO2 SYSTEMS

Carbon dioxide CO2 Systems
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a colorless, odorless, and chemically inert gas that is both readily available and electrically non-conductive. It extinguishes fire primarily by lowering the level of oxygen that supports combustion in a protected area. This mechanism of fire suppression makes CO2 suppression systems highly effective, requiring minimal clean-up, but should be used in normally unoccupied hazard locations or otherwise avoided by personnel when discharged. CO2 suppression systems may utilize the gas through a total flooding approach but carbon dioxide is also the only gaseous agent that may be utilized through local application.

Applications for CO2

  • Flammable liquid storage areas
  • Quench tanks
  • Mixing operations
  • Spray booths
  • Turbine driven generators
  • Electrical areas
  • Dust collectors
  • Engine rooms

Carbon dioxide CO2 Systems
he CO2 system is gaseous fire suppression system. It incorporates the use of inert gases and chemical agents to extinguish a fire. Also called Clean Agent Fire Suppression. These agents are governed by the NFPA Standard for Clean Agent Fire Extinguishing Systems – NFPA 2001 in the USA, with different standards and regulations in other parts of the world. The system typically consists of the agent, agent storage containers, agent release valves, fire detectors, fire detection system (wiring control panel, actuation signaling), agent delivery piping, and agent dispersion nozzles. Less typically, the agent may be delivered by means of solid propellantgas generators that produce either inert or chemically active gas. We at Arab Vision Safety, provide the CO2 fire suppression systems to different applications, including but not limited to: buildings, server rooms, engine rooms, marine enclosures and boats, healthcare facilities and others. These systems are provided as per the client requirements. Arab Vision Safety provides design, supply, installation, operation and maintenance services for the CO2 systems. We at Arab Vision Safety have established a strong relationship with the world’s largest manufacturers of the CO2 fire suppression systems such as Tyco, LPG, Kidde and others. We as well are the official authorized distributor and reseller of Viking Gaseous Suppression Systems. Our dedicated gaseous suppression system staff are well trained by Viking to conduct technical review and provide
