Extinguishing agent cylinders under high pressure
WARNING Risk of death due to pressure in extinguishing agent cylinders.
If pressurized extinguishing agent cylinders are damaged and extinguishing agent
escapes uncontrollably, there is a risk of severe injuries.
• Do not transport or store extinguishing agent cylinders unless they are sealed with a protec-
tive valve cap and a lock nut.
• Ensure that the extinguishing agent cylinders are attached correctly.
• Replace damaged extinguishing agent cylinders immediately.
2.5.2 Dangers when the system is activated
Cold extinguishing agent
WARNING Risk of injury from cold extinguishing agent.
The extinguishing agent exiting at the discharge nozzles is very cold. Direct contact
may result in injury.
• Leave the extinguishing zone without delay and within the pre-discharge timer when an
alarm is given.
• Stay out of the direct flow area of a discharge nozzle.
Shock
WARNING Risk of injury from shock.
The activation of the system involves noises from the discharged agent which may
surprise persons to an extent that they suffer shock.
• Inform all persons staying inside or close to the protected enclosure about the existence of
an automatic fire suppression system and the possibility of the system's activation.
• Make persons familiar with the procedures required in the event of an alarm, a fire, or the
activation of the fire suppression system.
• If in doubt, deny persons direct access to the protected enclosure.
