Ho Does A Gas Suppression System Functions?
When we think about fire, it's hard not to associate the word frightening with its potent combination of heat and tickling smell. But what if there was a way for your home or business space- no matter how large they are -to feel safe from these terrors? The answer lies within the most famous chemical components: oxygen! When combined in an enclosed area with fuel (typically wood), this duo will create something known as "fire."
When it comes to maintaining a fire, there are four essential elements that need to be present in the right ratio. If one or more of these links is removed then you can experience fire extinction - but if everything goes out swing call for help!
1. Cessation of the chain reaction of combustion
2. By removing/containing source of fuel
3. By reducing the source of oxygen
4. Extinguish the fire via removing heat
Gaseous fire can be suppressed in two different ways:
Oxygen reduction-
Inert gases, such as argon and nitrogen are used to put out fires by diluting the air with a low concentration of oxygen. This stops combustion because there's not enough fuel for it in order cock burning at higher temperatures- which is most materials' natural state anyway!
Chemical means-
Fire fighters are always at risk when they enter a building to battle flames. They must wear protective equipment and use dangerous chemical agents, but this doesn't mean there's no chance for them in these hazardous situations - because fire is unpredictable!
The smoke detectors are designed to help protect you in case of emergencies, like fires. They'll sound an alarm when there's danger so that they can release a fire-suppressing gas before anything else happens or gets worse!
The smoke from a burning house can lead to death if you're near ground level. It'll take about 30 minutes but it could save your life so don't be afraid of calling the fire department!
