CO₂ systems with local applications are specialized fire suppression setups designed to deliver carbon dioxide gas directly to specific hazard areas for rapid and effective fire extinguishing. Unlike total flooding systems that fill entire rooms, local application CO₂ systems focus the gas discharge precisely on equipment, machinery, or confined spaces where flammable liquids, electrical fires, or other high-risk materials are present.
CO₂ extinguishes fires by rapidly displacing oxygen, interrupting the combustion process without leaving any residue or causing damage to sensitive equipment. These systems typically include detection devices, control panels, and strategically positioned nozzles or discharge horns to ensure targeted coverage.
Ideal for protecting industrial machinery, electrical cabinets, engine rooms, and other localized hazards, CO₂ local application systems provide fast, clean, and efficient fire suppression while minimizing downtime and maintenance. Proper safety measures and ventilation are essential to protect personnel during CO₂ discharge due to the gas’s asphyxiation risk.
