The Steamexfire is an inert gas generator that produces an inert gas consisting of nitrogen and CO2, steam and water vapour. With this, a closed space can be made low in oxygen to extinguish, for example, a silo fire, tunnel fire, mine fire, container fire, ship fire or cocoa fire.
When the inert product with water vapor and steam is blown into a room where a fire is raging, the fire will be smothered by lack of oxygen and the heat will be drastically reduced. Eventually the fire will go out completely. in slang; two of the three elements from the fire triangle are eliminated. The Steamexfire can ultimately reduce the oxygen percentage in a closed space to 1% and keep it inert.
To make a space, such as for example an underground mine, closed, inflatable plugs are used, among other things.
The Steamexfire is placed outside the room in which the fire is raging and is connected to the closed room with pipes or harmonica hose in order to blow the inert product inside. The inerting is therefore done from a safe place.
The system is usually placed on a truck with its own fuel supply.
Liberty Gasturbine Holland has a system ready for turnout 24/7.
