FM Approved ANSUL High and Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems

FM Approved ANSUL High and Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems (CO2) – CO2 is an effective fire Extinguishing agent applicable to a wide range of fire hazards. FM Approved ANSUL High and Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems 

works quickly, with no residual clean-up associated with a system discharge which translates into minimal business interruption.  FM Approved ANSUL High and Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems is for use in non-occupied spaces, particularly effective for local application protection of equipment.  FM Approved ANSUL High and Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems is environmentally friendly, colorless, odorless, electrically non-conductive agent that is used mostly in industrial applications.

When FM Approved ANSUL High and Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems  is applied to a fire, it provides a heavy blanket of gas that reduces the oxygen level to a point where combustion cannot occur.  Precautions must be taken to minimize any exposure to life. The Standard for Carbon Dioxide systems is NFPA 12.

FM Approved ANSUL High and Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems may be stored in either high pressure spun steel cylinders (HPCO2 Extinguishing systems) or low pressure light wall refrigerated tanks (LPCO2 Extinguishing systems).

NOTE: FM Approved ANSUL High and Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems Both HPCO2 and LPCO2 systems are equally effective at fighting fires.  Neither one is better than the other in terms of extinguishment.

Descriptions 

FM Approved ANSUL High Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems 

are especially effective for  non-occupied hazards such as semiconductor wet benches, control rooms and paint lines. Whatever the application, from cylinder to nozzle, each system is custom-designed for your specific fire hazards.

FM Approved ANSUL High Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems use individual storage cylinders- from35lb.(16kg) to120lb .(54kg) capacity each- that can be manifolded together for rapid simultaneous discharge. Cylinder valves can be opened automatically or manually, and either locally or remotely using electric, pneumatic or mechanical valve actuators.

Features

HPCO2 system have several advantages over LPCO2 systems.

Less expensive for smaller systems

Stored in US-DOT compliant High spun cylinders.

Cylinders come in 3 different sizes

Easy to install

Readily Available

Fewer Components

FM Approved ANSUL Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems 

Descriptions 

FM Approved ANSUL Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems are designed for very large-scale aplication. There projects utilize extremely large refrigerated storage tanks with capacities between 3/4 and 60 tons (680 to 54430  kg ). 

FM Approved ANSUL Low Pressure Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Systems is stored in an ASME-coded pressure vessel equipped with its own refrigeration system. The temperature within the vessel is kept at approximately 0℉（-17℃）by maintaining the internal pressure near 300 psi (20.7 bar).

Features

LPCO2 system have several advantages over HPCO2 systems.

Do not require hydrostatic testing

Continuous monitoring of the liquid level and tank pressure; the liquid level gauge provides standard alarm outputs or an optional 4-20mA output(HPCO2 cylinders must be removed from service semi-annually to be weighed)

Require 40% less floor space and less floor loading than HPCO2 systems

Multi-shot capabilities without any switch over to a reserve

Hazards may be added to an existing LPCO2 system at anytime

LPCO2 Storage Units can be refilled while remaining in service; HPCO2 cylinders must be uninstalled, sent out to a refill location, and replaced

Lower material cost when systems require more than 4000 lbs (1814kg) of carbon dioxide (40 or more 100 lb (45 kg) HPCO2cylinders)

For critical installations, dual refrigeration options are available for LPCO2 Storage Units

LPCO2 systems are 30% more efficient than HPCO2 systems at local application

LPCO2 systems have lower overall maintenance costs than HPCO2 systems
