How Our DHP CO₂ Fire Suppression Systems Work

Manufactured and tested in ISO 9001:2015-certified facilities, these Fire Suppression Systems ensure quality, reliability, and international compliance. Suitable for industrial, electrical, and mechanical applications, they employ high-pressure CO₂, providing fast, residue-free fire suppression.

Used for both detection and actuation, the Linear Pneumatic Fire Detection Tubing (FDT) is routed throughout your protected enclosure and connected to the DHP valve. The FDT is pressurised with dry nitrogen, keeping the valve closed. When exposed to flame or elevated temperatures, the tubing ruptures at the hottest point, forming an instantaneous discharge orifice. The rupture triggers the valve to open, releasing the CO₂. The CO₂ flows through the burst point and floods the enclosure, achieving rapid fire knockdown and extinguishment. This design provides a self-contained, self-actuating system that requires no external electrical power, wiring, or control equipment.

Suitable for harsh environments, the UL-approved/CE-marked, high-grade aluminium seamless cylinders are designed, manufactured, and tested to various standards.
