A CO2 system does not cause damage to structures, furnishings or protected goods and does not leave residue or decomposition products. Carbon dioxide is naturally present in the air and has no application limitations or costs related to the use of other gaseous extinguishing agents. CO2 systems have a good rate of gas penetration in the areas to be protected and are effective on a wide range of flammable and combustible materials.
Typically used indoors, these systems can also be used in open environments using localized applications and relying on the discharge time and the dynamics of carbon dioxide: since it is 50% denser and heavier than the air that surrounds it, it can create layers that submerge the protected areas.
Industrial
CO2 systems are among the most popular in the industrial sector.
Mozzanica manufactures total flooding or local application systems, overseeing all phases: from pre-analysis, to detailed engineering, from prefabrication of the cylinder packages in the workshop to the turnkey construction of the system.
Some of the applications of Mozzanica's CO2 systems for its clients, both in local application and total flooding:
- Spray booths
- Rotary machines
- Printing machines
- Extraction channels for printing departments
- Electrical panels
- Tanks for heat treatment with oils and solvents
- Extrusion lines
- Temporary storage of flammable liquids
- Rolling mills
Marine
High-pressure CO2 extinguishing systems allow for the total saturation of enclosed spaces quickly and effectively. This technology is installed on board hundreds of ships around the world in compliance with SOLAS and IMO codes and is approved by all the main certification and insurance bodies.
This type of gas system is one of the most widely used in this sector and Mozzanica has gained considerable knowledge regarding its application since we are also involved in its maintenance and installation.
