Combining wet and dry chemical to first reduce heat then knock down the fire, the two agents work simultaneously to extinguish the fire.
A Dual Agent configuration offers significant advantages to just one type of extinguishing medium, especially when compared to just a liquid based system, where it can offer a 40% reduction in system size.
Dual Agent systems are an outstanding fire suppression method due to combining the individual features of Dry Powder & Wet Chemical (Liquid System) into one extremely effective solution. So, not only can the system provide the rapid flame knockdown of Dry Powder with the cooling and blanketing properties of Wet Chemical, the system is economical and significantly smaller than that of a Liquid only system.
One of the most important factors to having a Dual Agent system is the ability to repeatably score the highest rating on the SPCR 199 tests. Critically this feature was not achieved by just adding large system sizes and a high nozzle count, we get these results with a system that has only 8 kgs of agent and 6 nozzles.
