Clean Agent Fire Suppression Systems – Gaseous Systems
clean agent fire suppression systems generally use gaseous agents to suppress fires. These are also termed as clean agent systems owing to the fact that the gaseous agents don’t result in spills or show damage to the room or area where they are installed. These systems are generally used where expensive machinery and equipment are kept that may get damaged by wet agents like water.However, gaseous agents like carbon dioxide and Halon are found to be harmful for the environment and tend to eat up the oxygen layer in the atmosphere. Aerosol is a new agent that has become popular these days and is being considered as a good substitute for the gaseous agents.
