Did you know
- Minimax has a long history with CO2 extinguishing systems, with its predecessor company, SFH, being established in 1929 and becoming an official installer of CO2 systems. The Oxeo brand itself is associated with inert gas systems, which were introduced by Minimax in 1991. The Oxeo CO2 Fixed FF System is part of Minimax's broader range of gas-based suppression systems.
- The Oxeo CO2 Fixed FF System is one of Minimax's gas-based fire suppression solutions, alongside their Oxeo inert gas systems (using argon and nitrogen) and MX 1230 clean agent systems. While Oxeo inert gas systems are often preferred for areas with high-value, sensitive equipment due to residue-free extinguishing, CO2 systems are frequently used for applications like large turbines or protecting filter housings.
- The Minimax Oxeo CO2 Fixed FF System is chosen for its quick and effective fire fighting capabilities, primarily by displacing oxygen from the fire source. It extinguishes fires without leaving residues and is not electrically conductive, making it suitable for electrical and electronic systems, production facilities, and areas with special hygiene requirements.
| Model | Extinguishing Agent | Residue | Electrical Conductivity | Primary Extinguishing Method |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oxeo (CO2 Fixed FF System) | Carbon Dioxide (CO2) | No | Non-conductive | Oxygen displacement, heat absorption |
| Oxeo (Inert Gas System) | Argon, Nitrogen, or blends (e.g., IG 541) | No | Non-conductive | Oxygen reduction |
| MX 1230 | 3M™ Novec™ 1230 fluid (FK-5-1-12) | No | Non-conductive | Heat absorption |
