CO₂ Flooding Fire Suppression System

Shield Safety offers advanced CO₂ Flooding Fire Suppression Systems in Mumbai, engineered to protect high-value assets and critical equipment. CO₂ (carbon dioxide) is a clean, non-conductive, and effective extinguishing agent that works by reducing oxygen levels and removing heat to suppress fire quickly and efficiently.

As per NFPA 12 and BIS 6382 design standards, CO₂ systems are ideal for total flooding or local application. Stored in high-pressure seamless steel cylinders, CO₂ is deployed in gaseous form to penetrate even hard-to-reach fire zones—ensuring complete coverage without leaving behind residue or damaging sensitive electronics.

System Components

• CO₂ Cylinders: Seamless steel cylinders available in various capacities, filled with liquid CO₂
• Manifold and Valves: Interconnected cylinders via manifold; master valve is electrically operated, and slave valves are pressure-actuated
• Flexible Hoses: Used for connecting multiple cylinders in high-hazard applications
• Discharge Nozzles: Engineered for effective dispersion of CO₂ in the hazard area
• Control Panel: Facilitates automatic or manual activation of the system

How It Works

When a fire is detected, the control panel triggers the release of CO₂ from the cylinders. The gas is rapidly discharged into the protected area, reducing the oxygen concentration below the level that supports combustion. This suffocates the fire and lowers the temperature to prevent reignition. Since CO₂ is non-corrosive and residue-free, clean-up is minimal.

Applications

• Power plants and control rooms
• Paint and varnish manufacturing areas
• Transformers and sub-stations
• Rolling mills and turbine enclosures
• False floors, cable shafts, and switch rooms
