G Fire water mist system

The G Fire Water Mist System is unique.

Water is forced through nozzles at very high pressure to create a water mist with the most effective fire fighting drop size distribution. The extinguishing effects give optimum protection by cooling, due to heat absorption, and inerting due to the expansion of water by approximately 1,700 times when it evaporates.

The G Fire Water Mist System provides better protection for personnel and surroundings and minimises potential water damage, as the majority of the water mist evaporates. The G Fire Water Mist System is available for accommodation, total flooding, local applications and deep fat fryers, and also as a high pressure or low pressure system.

High and low pressure CO2 systems

CO2 systems are used as total flooding systems in engine rooms, machinery spaces and cargo holds. The high pressure system consists of a number of CO2 cylinders, whose outlets are connected to a common manifold. From there, the CO2 is directed, via selector valves, into the various protected spaces. If the protected space is large, a high number of cylinders are required. These can be replaced by a single CO2 tank, saving approximately 50% in weight and installation costs. The tank contains CO2 cooled to -18 °C. The tank, refrigerators, distribution valves, controls, etc., are supplied pre-wired and ready assembled on a steel frame.

Foam fire extinguishing system

Foam used in fire protection is an aggregate of air-filled bubbles formed from aqueous solutions, and is of lower density than the lightest flammable liquids. It is mainly used to form a coherent floating blanket on flammable and combustible liquids to prevent or extinguish fires by excluding air and cooling the fuel. It then prevents re-ignition by suppressing the formation of flammable vapours, and also adheres to surfaces, providing a degree of exposure protection from adjacent fires. Foam can be used as a fire prevention, control or extinguishing agent for flammable liquid in tanks or processing areas.

Dry chemical powder fire extinguishing system

When introduced directly to a fire, dry chemical powder extin­guishes flames almost immediately. Dry chemical powder is intended for use in extinguishing fires involving bulk chemical agents and liquefied gases. Our dry systems are developed to meet the increasing demand for large capacity systems for the protection of ships carrying LNG/LPG and certain chemicals or agents in bulk.
