Water mist system Scope

Water mist system can effectively extinguish these fires:

Class A: Class A fires in general are valid, and for Class A fires are generally the most difficult to extinguish the deep fire sprinklers, with its fast speed and mist shrouded endothermic cut off oxygen to the function, but also has excellent fire-extinguishing effectiveness;

Class B: Dry sump only plane fire (poolfire) valid, and whether it is plane mist oil pool fire (poolfire) or sprayer  splashes (jet) burning oil fires (sprayfire) have excellent effect of extinguishing ;

Class C: water mist system can be used to power equipment, fire protection, if then by deionized water (to make a soft water), but also prevents fire when the air is humid that may arise from the free discharge phenomenon.

In addition, also be used to suppress the fire and control the fire and prevent fire spread, temperature, dust.

Water mist can not be directly applied to water occurs with explosive or harmful substances may produce a large number of materials and chemical reaction occasions, such as lithium,trigger sprayer potassium, magnesium, titanium, zirconium and uranium metal or a compound thereof. Water mist systems can not be directly applied to the case of low-temperature liquefied gas (such as liquefied natural gas).

Applicable special places

Cabin: Aircraft should avoid cabin, cargo and machinery room set up different systems of fire-fighting equipment, and inviting weight and economic investment. Also yet to consider not carrying too much water plane and the passengers will not be able to fire evacuation, fire extinguishing agents therefore need to consider the toxicity, environmental issues, equipment weight, the volume of water and the need for both A, B, C class fires.
