AQUASYS Highlights The Effectiveness Of High Pressure Water Mist Systems In Fire Protection Involving Electric Vehicles

In modern parking garages, the number of electric charging stations and parked e-cars, e-scooters and e-bikes is constantly increasing. However, fires involving electric vehicles are more complicated than those involving conventionally powered vehicles.

The use of high pressure water mist (HPWM) systems enables highly efficient and safe fire protection in the case of fires involving electric vehicles.

Task in the event of an e-car fire is usually to move the object out of the garage, into the open air and cool it there

In general, a battery fire can’t be extinguished. For the emergency services, the task in the event of an e-car fire is usually to move the object out of the garage, into the open air and cool it there, for example in a water tank.

For the parking garage operators, in the event of a fire the primary goal is to protect the supporting building structure and to contain the fire until the emergency services arrive and to create ambient conditions that allow them to proceed.

On-time planning enables best possible adaptation

The high pressure water mist firefighting system from AQUASYS is adapted to the unique on-site situation for each application. Customers also benefit in the future, as the HPWM system can be easily expanded and adapted, if required.

Further advantages of the AQUASYS high pressure water mist (HPWM) technology include:

• Very little water use with simultaneous highly efficient cooling and firefighting
• Washing out of toxic gases and smoke particles
• The systems are durable, require little maintenance and are easy to extend
