Fire fighting nozzle

Ultra Fog water mist fire extinguishing systems provide robust, effective, quality engineered solutions for applications which require optimal fire suppression while minimising the volume of water consumed and deployed. High pressure pumps force water through the stainless steel Ultra Fog water mist nozzles, discharging the water in the form of millions of tiny droplets – typically 30 – 200 µm diameter. An activated system will create a blanket of water mist droplets which maximise heat absorption from the fire, and subsequently displacing oxygen upon evaporation and expansion of the water mist as it converts to steam. Water mist systems are differentiated from sprinkler systems by mist’s unique ability to present a much greater water surface area (enabling rapid heat absorption), combined with the mist’s ability to remain suspended in the air for a much longer duration – thereby creating more exposure time for the heat absorption to take effect. This enables water mist systems to cool and suppress fire using considerably less water than sprinkler systems. Water mist fire protection systems provide absolute protection for all kinds of enclosures. This occurs because the nebulised droplets, along with the oxygen present in the enclosure, constitute the base of a fire. When the water mist turns into steam (that is expanding in volume, it forces oxygen for continued combustion away from the flame. The total protection effect achieves a quick wetting and cooling of the burning surface. The triangle-based formula for extinguishing fire also prevents from a probable re-ignition.
