Chubb Fire & Security Demonstrates The Use Of Water Mist System In Fire Suppression

The term ‘Water Mist’ refers to fine water sprays in which 99% of the volume of the spray is in drops with diameters less than 1000 microns. The use of the water mist in fire suppression, compared to the use of gaseous agents and conventional sprinkler systems, has demonstrated advantages including the following:

• No toxic and asphyxiation problems
• No environmental problems
• Low system cost
• Limited or no water damage, and
• High efficiency in suppressing certain fires
