Industrial Fire Suppression Systems
Carbon Dioxide Systems
Carbon dioxide is a colorless, odorless, electrically non-conductive gas that is highly efficient as a fire suppression agent. Fike Carbon Dioxide Fire Protection Systems use intelligent, reliable, and fast-acting control panels to quickly sense a fire before it can cause damage to property. Carbon dioxide gas has a high rate of expansion, which allows a Fike CO2 fire protection system to work fast.
When applied to a fire, CO2 provides a heavy blanket of gas that reduces the oxygen level to a point where combustion cannot occur. Since carbon dioxide is a gas, there is no clean-up associated with a Fike CO2 fire suppression system discharge. That means minimal interruption to your business! In fact, the cost of clean-up and peripheral damage associated with water sprinkler systems, foam systems, and dry chemical agents can exceed the costs associated with the actual fire damage. With a Fike Carbon Dioxide system, clean-up costs and downtime associated with a CO2 discharge are negligible.
Fire's CO2 fire suppression system is extremely versatile, effective on a wide range of flammable and combustible material and approved for Class A, B, and C hazards.
Fike Carbon Dioxide Fire Protection Systems are available for use in total flooding or local fire protection applications - making it an effective fire protection system for a wide variety of hazards.
Types of hazards and equipment that Fike Carbon Dioxide system may satisfactorily protect include:
- Battery Rooms
- Flammable Storage
- Engine Test Cells
- Printing Presses
- Solvent Recovery
- Record Storage
- Electric Generators
- Coating Machines
- Under-Floor Areas
- Fur Storage Vaults
- Dust Collectors
- Coating Machines

Watermist Systems
The Fike MicroMist fire suppression system produces a fine mist to extinguish fires quickly, with very little residual water. In fact, the MicroMist system releases 100 times less water than traditional sprinkler systems, yet effectively extinguishes the fire! That translates into less run-off, less damage and easy clean-up.
The Fike MicroMist fire protection system employs single fluid, intermediate pressure - which reduces installation and maintenance costs associated with redundant and high-pressure piping networks / fittings. Offered in two convenient cylinder size configurations, MicroMist is a self-contained (great for applications with or without an available water source), single-fluid, pre-engineered water mist fire suppression system and comes pre-assembled, tested and packaged with all necessary valves and actuation components for system operation, (system nozzles must be ordered separately). That's portability, reliability and simple installation in one easy package.
In addition, the Fike MicroMist system does utilize water, so it is naturally environmentally safe, non-toxic, and people friendly. Combine MicroMist with the intelligent, peer-to-peer speed of the Cheetah Xi detection and control system and you have a cost-effective, fast fire protection system, ideally suited for total compartment protection of machinery spaces, compartmentalized gas turbine generators (FM approved) and many other applications.
