Did you know
- While a specific launch year for the Unitor CO2 Fixed FF System is not explicitly stated, fixed CO2 fire extinguishing systems have been a common choice for marine applications for a considerable time, with SOLAS regulations addressing such systems dating back to 1974.
- The Unitor CO2 System serves as a total flooding solution for enclosed spaces within Unitor's fire suppression offerings. It complements systems like the Unitor XFlow Local Application Fire Fighting System, which provides additional fire protection for engine rooms, and Unitor XFlow water mist systems for other areas. The Unitor 1230 System, another sibling, uses a clean agent as an environmentally friendly alternative to CO2, particularly for occupied areas and spaces where weight and installation space are critical.
- The Unitor CO2 System is chosen for its effectiveness as a total flooding system in enclosed spaces, its ease of installation and operation, and minimal maintenance requirements. It is a self-contained system that does not require electrical power, water, or machinery for gas release, and CO2 refills are available globally.
| Model | Extinguishing Agent | System Type | Environmental Impact (ODP, GWP, Atmospheric Life) | Residue |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sapphire (Unitor CO2 System) | Carbon Dioxide (CO2) | High-pressure total flooding | ODP=0, GWP=1 (for CO2, atmospheric life not specified for this system, but Novec 1230 has 5 days) | No residue |
| Unitor 1230 System | Novec 1230 (Clean Agent) | Total flooding | ODP=0, GWP=1, atmospheric life 5 days | No residue |
| Unitor XFlow Water Mist System | Water Mist | Low-pressure water mist (local application/total flooding) | Uses seawater, low power consumption | Minimal water damage and clean-up |
