CO₂ gaseous fire suppression systems are among the long-used and proven fire protection solutions. They can be used with different application methods depending on the characteristics of the area to be protected. Since it is mandatory to take safety measures in environments where humans are present, it is not the primary preference for living spaces that are used continuously.
CO₂ systems, which provide high performance in extinguishing Class A, B, and C fires, are widely preferred especially in facilities containing flammable and combustible materials, industrial production areas, and for the protection of heavy industrial equipment.
The system prevents flames from continuing by reducing the oxygen level in the fire environment. However, due to its suffocating property, it should be carefully evaluated in areas where personnel are present and should not be used without taking the necessary safety precautions. It can be designed to be suitable for both local protection and total flooding applications covering the entire volume.
Since CO₂ gas is not classified as a clean gas, the decision to use it in areas containing sensitive electronic equipment should be made by taking the characteristics of the environment into account.
