Water Mist Total Flooding Fire Suppression System

Our water mist total flooding system is a high-performance water mist fire suppression system designed to protect enclosed spaces and special hazards. As part of advanced extinguishing systems, it uses ultra-fine droplets to rapidly control and suppress fire while minimizing water usage and damage to sensitive equipment. Engineered for efficiency and safety, it provides reliable fire protection for critical environments where conventional solutions may not be suitable.

Water Mist Fire Suppression Systems

A complete fire protection solution

The water mist fire suppression system provides a complete and highly efficient fire protection solution for critical environments. Using ultra-fine water droplets, it ensures rapid and effective fire control while minimizing water consumption and potential damage.

Extinguishing mechanism

The system operates through a powerful triple-action mechanism, delivering rapid heat absorption and oxygen displacement directly at the fire source. Fine water droplets quickly evaporate, cooling the flames and surrounding area, while the generated vapor reduces oxygen levels near the fire. This combined action enables fast suppression and helps prevent re-ignition, ensuring effective and long-lasting fire control.

Environmentally friendly

Water mist systems are fully sustainable, with ODP = 0 and GWP = 0, meaning no impact on the ozone layer or climate. With NOAEL and LOAEL values of 0, they are completely safe, non-toxic, and pose no risk to occupants, even in enclosed environments.

Our water mist solution

Designed for simplicity and efficiency, the system uses widely available IG100 (200 bar) and can be refilled on-site with tap water. It reduces maintenance costs and eliminates the need for filling station homologation.

Advantages of Water Mist Fire Suppression Systems

The benefits of a high-pressure water mist fire suppression system lie in its outstanding performance through a triple-action extinguishing mechanism: As a main fire protection solution, it uses vaporized water to absorb heat, rapidly reducing the temperature of the fire source and suppressing flames, while the resulting water vapor helps to displace oxygen, effectively smothering the fire. Simultaneously, the fine water mist cools the fuel, preventing any risk of re-ignition and ensuring long-term fire safety.

Designed for versatile applications, including gas turbines and engine rooms, it uses significantly less water than traditional sprinkler systems and offers high flexibility, making it ideal for protecting both confined spaces and large-scale industrial applications.

Environmentally safe and non-toxic, water mist systems emit no harmful residues and have zero impact on the ozone layer (ODP = 0) and zero global warming potential (GWP = 0), making them climate-neutral with no greenhouse gas emissions. Completely safe for occupants, they feature NOAEL and LOAEL values of 0, ensuring no toxicity, corrosive effects, or health risks, even in enclosed spaces. A reliable, sustainable, and high-performance solution for protecting critical assets, including sensitive equipment and critical infrastructure, in modern fire safety applications.

FAQ about water mist systems
What are the benefits of water mist system?

Water mist systems are an advanced fire protection technology designed to improve safety while using minimal water. When activated, they quickly cool the fire and reduce oxygen, helping to control and suppress flames efficiently. Their main benefit is to ensure effective fire protection with significantly less water, reducing potential damage to equipment and infrastructure. This makes them ideal for demanding application areas such as gas turbines and generators, transformers and electrical rooms, machinery spaces, engine rooms, and power generation modules. In addition, less storage capacity and piping are typically required, allowing for easier installation and integration, especially in confined spaces or retrofit projects. This technology also offers a reliable and environmentally friendly solution while maintaining high levels of safety across various applications.

Are the water mist suppression systems hazardous to health?

No, water mist systems use only water as the extinguishing medium, making them inherently safe for human exposure. When activated, the fine droplets do not create hazardous atmospheres and pose no risk of suffocation or poisoning, even during prolonged discharge. This makes them suitable for occupied spaces and sensitive environments. In addition, both NOAEL (No Observed Adverse Effect Level) and LOAEL (Lowest Observed Adverse Effect Level) are 0, confirming that no harmful effects are expected under normal operating conditions.

Is the water mist system harmful to the environment?

No, water mist systems have no negative impact on the environment. They use pure water without any added chemicals, and therefore do not release harmful substances during activation. Both ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) and GWP (Global Warming Potential) are 0, meaning the system does not contribute to ozone layer depletion or climate change. This makes water mist an environmentally responsible and sustainable fire protection solution, well-suited for modern safety requirements.

Water mist vs sprinklers: what’s the difference?

A water mist system uses a fine spray as a water mist extinguishing agent, creating small droplets that absorb heat efficiently and help displace oxygen around the fire. In contrast, a traditional sprinkler system releases larger volumes of water to control or extinguish fires.
