Water Mist Fire Protection

Water mist systems release fine droplets of water at high pressure. These droplets are so small that they:

• Cool flames instantly by rapidly absorbing heat.
  

• Displace oxygen around the fire, starving it of fuel.
  

• Prevent re-ignition by controlling heat and atmosphere.
  

Because the mist uses much less water, it minimizes damage to electronics, furnishings, and sensitive equipment.
