The water is pushed through stainless steel pipes by specially designed nozzles. This reduces the droplet size from 1 mm in diameter to 50 - 200 μm, creating a very fine water mist. This results in a much larger water surface compared to traditional sprinkler systems, making it highly effective in fighting fires.
In addition to its excellent properties as a firefighting agent, water and water mist also offer unbeatable advantages in other applications. AQUASYS has extensive experience in this area and offers the appropriate solution for these applications as well.
Cooling
High-pressure water mist creates many very small droplets, resulting in a highly efficient cooling effect. The water mist rapidly absorbs energy from the fire and cools the source of the blaze.
Inertization
Due to the heat of the fire, the water droplets evaporate, increasing their volume by several times. The sudden evaporation inertizes the immediate atmosphere around the fire source. The water mist displaces the oxygen essential for the fire. When 1 liter of water evaporates, it generates 1673 liters of steam.
Shielding
The produced water mist creates a dense, reflective mist wall with the finest droplets in the event of a fire, which reduces the heat radiation from the fire.
Universal
Due to the extremely large reaction surface of water mist, the extinguishing properties are excellent and allow for use in fire classes A, B, C, and F. Additionally, the water can be combined with additives to tailor the extinguishing or temperature properties to the local requirements.
Moistening
Controlled air humidification is an essential component in many processes and applications, such as in the wood industry. There, the drying process is carried out in drying chambers with controlled humidity.
Dust suppression
In applications such as conveyor belt, shredder, waste sorting, or incineration systems, and many more, dust suppression plays a key role. In addition to reducing dust, the technology also serves as a preventive measure against explosions or fires caused by dust or electrostatic charges.
Lubrication
Water is biocompatible, environmentally friendly, cost-effective, and can absorb a lot of heat and warmth. Ideal conditions for applications in lubrication technology.
