B. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This CO2 system is a manual pneumatic operated system with one or two release
station for protection of one or more spaces. This design is suitable for protection
of engine room and including other spaces such as pump room, purifier room,
incinerator room etc.

The system can be operated from any of the release stations in the event of fire in
the protected space. The CO2 cylinders are located in the CO2 room, outside the
protected space.

It is important that for a fire is to be effectively extinguished, the right extinguishing

agent be chosen and there is sufficient amount of this agent is available.
During a fire, several different materials will generally be involved simultaneously.
For this reason, it is impossible to give simple rules for choosing the extinguishing
agent which can be used for all cases.
Type of fire and recommended extinguishing agent :

Fire In Extinguishing Agent

Solid, such as wood, paper,
Water
ropes and textile

Flammable liquids such as Foam, dry chemical powder,

oil, paint and fats CO2

Gases Dry chemical powder, CO2

Light metals such as sodium Special dry chemical powder, dry

and magnesium sand

Electrical equipment Dry chemical powder, CO2

HIGH PRESSURE CARBON DIOXIDE FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM

C. CO2 GAS AS FIRE EXTINGUISHING AGENT

The chemical formula for carbon dioxide, compound of carbon and oxygen is CO2.
It should not be mistaken for the poisonous compound of the same two elements,
carbon monoxide (CO).

Carbon dioxide does not support combustion and extinction of a fire is achieved by
diluting the oxygen content of the atmosphere in the compartment from the normal
21% to a level which gives insufficient oxygen to support combustion. It is about
50% heavier than air and when used as extinguishing agent, it will form a blanket
over the fire and extinguish it.

At normal pressure and temperature, carbon dioxide is a colorless gas with a

faintly astringent smell. Carbon dioxide is chemically neutral and thus has no
corrosive effect on any material. Engines and other equipment may be run as
usual after a thorough airing, however, carbon dioxide has little cooling effect and
there is consequently a danger for re-ignition if air is readmitted to the
compartment too quickly after the fire has been extinguished.

Another advantage of
carbon dioxide is that it is
electrical non-conductive, so
it can safely be used in
spaces containing live
electrical equipment.
Carbon dioxide does not
leave any residue to be
cleaned up. Carbon dioxide
is also not subject to loss in
quality with age.

1 kg of carbon dioxide will

develop into about 0.56 cbm
of gas, capable of
extinguishing fires in
concentration of 30% or
more. When compressed,
carbon dioxide is made into
liquid which is stored in
steel cylinder. The ratio of
the liter content of the
cylinder to the quantity of
carbon dioxide in kilogram is
called the “filling ratio” and it
is normally 0.67 kg per liter.

System

HIGH PRESSURE CARBON DIOXIDE FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM

This is defined as the “tropical filling ratio” and at a temperature of 21 deg C, it will
give the cylinder a pressure 58 kg/cm2. With the same filling ratio, up to
temperature of about 28 deg C, the cylinder will be completely filled with liquid
carbon dioxide. A further small increase of temperature will cause a large increase
of pressure. As may be seen from the diagram, the pressure will rise to 190
kg/cm2 at a temperature of 66 bar, causing the safety disc of the cylinder to
rupture.

Consequently, the CO2 cylinders are stored in a separate room, which should
have extraction ventilation and for safety reasons, the temperature in the room
should never exceed 40 deg C. If there is reason to believe that the temperature of
the room has exceeded this safety limit, it should be checked immediately the
covering plate of the safety disc of the CO2 cylinder are intact.

Carbon dioxide is highly asphyxiating (suffocative). At concentrations of about 3-

4% it will not have any effect for relatively short exposures other than breathing will
become more rapid. Concentrations of 4-5% will cause dizziness after 30 minutes.
A concentration above 9% will produce unconsciousness within a few minutes.
This action is more related to suffocation than it is to any toxic effect of carbon
dioxide itself. At concentration of 20% and upward 9which is used for fire
extinguishing) death will follow in about 20-30 minutes unless the victim is
removed to a source of fresh air and given artificial respiration.

WARNING!!!

ENTRANCE INTO A COMPARTMENT IN WHICH CARBON DIOXIDE

HAS BEEN RELEASED WILL CAUSE DEATH INSTANTNEOUSLY.

In fire fighting applications, concentrations of 30 - 45% is used, depending of type

of compartment to be protected.

D. SYSTEM LAYOUT INFORMATION

The system consists of the following main components:
1. One or two release stations for activating the system. One release station is
normally located in the Fire Control room or additional one is usually located at the
CO2 room or near the entrance to relevant the protected space.

2. The release station consists of one or two pilot bottle for operation of cylinder
valve and distribution valve, and micro switch for activating CO2 alarm and
ventilation shut-down.

3. One pilot cabinet is connected to the all the valve release cabinets for supplying
pilots activation gas.

HIGH PRESSURE CARBON DIOXIDE FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM

4. Time delay units, connected to the release line for delaying the operation of the
cylinder top valve.

5. A CO2 cylinders bank with fastening assembly located in a dedicated room. The
CO2 cylinders are fitted with pressure operated valve.

6. Flexible hoses connecting CO2 cylinder valves outlet to the check valves fitted
on the manifold.

7. The distribution valves are provided with pneumatic actuators. The distribution
valves, one for each protected space, separate the cylinder bank from the
protected space.

8. Manual release handles for emergency operation of the cylinder valves.

9. Relief valve on manifold pipe to prevent pressure build up in the event of liquid
CO2 is trapped in the manifold pipe.

10. Pressure gauge is fitted on manifold for indicating the pressure during testing
and discharge.

11. A connection for air and shore is fitted on the manifold pipe used for blow
through and testing of the distribution piping.

12. Distribution pipe in the protected pace. The piping system is designed and
calculated to achieve even distribution of the CO2 gas within the time limit required.
Discharge nozzles are fitted on the distribution lines inside the protected spaces.

13. Alarm device is installed in the protected space to provide audible (and
optional visual) warning to personnel.

E. GUILDELINES ON FIRE IN MACHINERY SPACE

Smaller fires in the engine room should be extinguished immediately using the
available portable fire extinguishers or water and foam hand lines.

If it is not possible to extinguish the fire and it is necessary to leave the room due
to heat and smoke, fuel oil units including transfer/booster pumps and FO purifiers
in operation should be stopped. Critical machineries such main engine and oil fired
boiler should also be stopped.

At the same time all fans are stopped, all openings closed and fire alarm activated.

System

HIGH PRESSURE CARBON DIOXIDE FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM

At the instruction of the Master, the CO2 extinguishing system for total flooding of
the machinery space should be release in accordance with procedures at the
master control station.

A concentration of 30-40% is developed in the machinery space within 2 minutes

or less. This reduces the oxygen content of the room’s atmosphere to less than
15% at which level it will not support combustion.

As there may be hot spots in the room, which could cause the fire to break out
again when the room is aired, the room should be kept tightly closed until it is
absolutely certain that sufficient cooling and therefore complete extinguishing has
been achieved.

During and after extinguishing, all spaces adjacent to the machinery space should
be frequently checked or preferably continuously watched so as to prevent
spreading of the fire, i.e. by overheating of bulkheads. If necessary these can be
cooled by water fog.

When the fire has been extinguished the room must be thoroughly aired and
inspected before it is used again. Due to the effect of CO2, it is dangerous to enter
the room before the CO2 contents has been reduced to 3-4%. Therefore it should
be properly checked with CO2 gas detector or Davys lamp that the CO2
concentration is safe.

Even so, self contained breathing apparatus and lifeline should be used when first
checking the room.

If there is any reason to believe that persons have been trapped by the fire or the
release of CO2, a rescue party must be organized immediately. The party must be
equipped with self contained breathing apparatus and the victims, if unconscious
must be given artificial respiration immediately.

A machinery space fire will always involve a high risk to the safety of the vessel
and its crew. It is therefore essential that the above procedure is followed promptly
and any fire properly extinguished.

F. GUIDE LINES FOR FIRE EXTINGUISHING

If a fire occurs onboard, actions must be taken to extinguish the fire immediately
with the available equipment and the fire alarm must be given to warn all
personnel onboard. The ship’s officer and crew should immediately follow the
standing instruction laid down in the ship’s fire plan.

System

HIGH PRESSURE CARBON DIOXIDE FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM

Portable fire extinguishers are the essential “first aid” units and have only a limited
fire extinguishing capability. Thus, portable fire extinguishing equipment should be
used for fighting small fires and preventing fire from spreading.

Rescue of the person in danger must start immediately. Orderly and controlled
action, especially from the personnel in charge is necessary to avoid panic. The
Master or duty officer should check on the situation immediately and decide
whether the fire should be extinguished by fixed total flooding fire extinguishing
system. The master should decide if the lifeboats are to be made ready to be
launched or the ship is to be turned to reduce the risk of spreading the fire and to
assist extinguishing.

The air supply to the space on fire and all adjacent spaces must be shut off as
quickly as possible by stopping all fans, closing vents and air pipes and by closing
all other openings. However, hatches and vents must not be closed in case of fire
involves nitrates and chlorates which contain their own oxygen and thus cannot be
extinguished by smothering.

During extinguishing, poisonous carbon monoxide may be released by incomplete

combustion and which may give rise to explosion. Therefore, if air is suddenly let
into a smoke-filled room, a “smoke gas explosion” may occur, which may cause
spurts of flame and further outbreaks and spreading of the fire.

Care must always be taken before opening a burning and smoke filled room and fire
extinguishing equipment must be ready for immediate use.

Furthermore, it should be noted that heat from a fire may develop explosive gases
in spaces which have not been in direct contact with the fire. Thus, cargo such as
soya beans in a deep tank which are exposed to heat from a fire can produce
methane gas, which is highly flammable.

It is therefore essential to check during and after a fire if flammable gases have
been evolved in any space. Naked fame must not be used at all or near places
where there has been a fire or where explosive gases might be present until it has
been checked that the spaces are safe.

Masks with smoke filter protect against smoke but not against carbon monoxide or
carbon dioxide. In spaces where these gases are present or the air for some
reason deficient of oxygen, persons entering the space must be equipped with
breathing apparatus.

During a fire all adjacent spaces including spaces under and over the space on fire
must be kept on observation. It is also advisable to check regularly throughout the
ship especially where large ventilation plants may increase the spreading of
smoke and heat. If there is a fire in the cargo spaces, particular attention must be

paid to air pipes from these spaces which pass through deck houses as the heat
from such pipes has been known to set such house on fire.

The best way of cooling down decks and bulkheads adjacent to the space on fire
is by using water fog, which also minimize water damage.

Highly hazardous cargo such as compressed gas cylinders, which may explode if
heated should if possible be removed from the seat of fire and its surrounding and
be cooled down.

Acetylene cylinders, which may have been exposed to strong heat, should be cooled down
with copious amount of water as explosion of such cylinders can occur within the first 24
hours after heating.
Pressure cylinders intended for other than acetylene must not be used after being
subjected to strong heating until they have been pressure tested and certified by
relevant authority.

After extinguishing the fire, the seat of the fire should be watched until there is no
further risk of re-ignition. Also spaces adjacent to the seat of the fire should be
watched and if possible examined to make sure that the fire has not spread.

G. CARBON DIOXIDE SYSTEM OPERATION PROCEDURES

When there is fire in the protected space that cannot be extinguished by
portable fire fighting equipment and the vessel’s Master has decided to utilize
the Carbon Dioxide system:
1. Open the release or valve cabinet door. This will activate the CO2 alarm and
ventilation shut - down.
2. Open the screw down valve on the pilot cylinder. Pull down handles on both
control valves in sequence 1, 2..
3. The pilot gas will operate the main distribution valve and the cylinder top valve
after a pre-set time (30~40 seconds).
4. CO2 gas will now be discharged through the distribution valve into the
protected space within two minutes.

H. EMERGENCY OPERATION PROCEDURES

In case of failure in the operation of the system from the release cabinet, the
following procedure should be followed:
1. Open the distribution valve manually. The alarm will be activated and
ventilation shut-down.
2. Take the manual release handle and open the cylinder valves manually.
3. The system is now operated.

GENERAL
The following inspection procedures provide the general maintenance normally
required to be carried out by the ships personnel between each service. A more
specific maintenance procedure on special equipment is given under each product
document number in the instruction manual.

Annual inspection and service of the system is recommended. Minimum every

second year according to authority requirements.

For safety reasons and due to danger of accidental release, it is important that this
is carried out by authorized personnel.

EVERY FOUR MONTHS AND AFTER DRY DOCKING

Release Station:
1. Check key and locks for release or supply cabinets. Locks must be easy to be
opened.
2. Open release cabinet door to check that the micro switch activates CO2 alarm.
3. Check that the pilot bottle valves and green disc on bursting disc are in position.
CO2 Room:
1. Check key and locks for CO2 room. Locks must be easy to be opened.
2. Manually open all distribution main valves 3 to 4 times to make sure smooth
operation. Check that micro switch on distribution valve activates CO2 alarm and
ventilation shut down. Check that all valves are left in closed position.
3. Check that all CO2 cylinders are secured tightly and no cylinder have moved out
of position.
4. Check that all safety pins or sealing wires are removed from CO2 cylinder valves.
(important for new vessel and after dry docking)
5. Check that blind flange (if installed) on distribution pipes are in correct open
position.
6. Check bursting disc indicators on CO2 cylinder valves. If green disc has been
blown off, the contents in cylinder must be checked.
7. Check that pressure gauge on manifold shows no pressure. If pressure is
indicated, the cylinder content must be checked.

EVERY YEAR
Check the content of the CO2 cylinders. The content is checked by a proper
weighing scale or by a liquid level indicator. If a cylinder shows a net loss of more
than 10%, it shall be refilled.

9 MANIFOLDS, CONNECTIONS AND ALL DISTRIBUTION VALVES LEAK TESTED

9.1 Connect working air supply or nitrogen at required pressure, to the air/shore connection.
Supply gas into the manifold with all main distribution valve closed. When the manifolds are
filled up, close the ball valve on the air/shore connection and check the tightness of the
manifolds.

9.2 Keep the pressure and monitor the manometer for pressure drop while searching around
for leaks. Use soap test if in doubt.

9.3 If no leaks are found and the pressure is stable, the manifolds and valves are tight.

9.4 Continue with item 10 before disconnection of air supply.

9.5 Leakage through the check valve may occur, due to small particles entering into the
manifold during installation. If so, try to push up the check valve ball to purge the valve. If it
does not help, install a 1/2" plug on the check valve outlet

10 DISTRIBUTION VALVES CHECKED FOR PROPER OPERATION

10.1 Connect a test pilot bottle instead of the ones in supply cabinet. The cylinders in cabinets
may be used, however, remember to recharge these after testing.

10.2 Use a piece of tape over the micro switches on the pneumatic actuators and in the release
cabinets. This to avoid unnecessary CO2 alarm and ventilation shut down in the protected
space.

10.3 Open the distribution valves manually and close again one by one, with required pressure
in the manifold. Ref item 09.1. This to check the valves for proper operation.

10.4 Open the valve in release cabinet to operate distribution valve. Check that the correct
distribution valve opens.

10.5 Repeat item 10.4 with the next release cabinet/distribution valve. Remove all tape after
use.

10.6 Continue with item 11 before disconnecting air/gas supply.

11 PIPES FROM MAIN VALVES TO NOZZLES LEAK TESTED

11.1 Plug all nozzle outlets.

11.2 Connect working air supply or nitrogen at required pressure, to the air/shore connection.

16 DISCHARGE LINES AND NOZZLES INSPECTED

16.1 Supply air to the manifolds through the air/shore connection. The air will now blow through
the discharge line into the protected space.

16.2 With more than one protected space, it is recommended to check only one space at the
time. Check in the protected space that all discharge outlets are fitted with nozzles and the air
is blowing out of them. If no air, it could be that the pipes are clogged or that they are
disconnected somewhere. Also ensure that there are no leakages elsewhere in the piping
system, e.g. flange connections or erection joints.

COMMISSIONING IS NOW COMPLETED

NOTE: Continue with item 24 and/or item 25 when the system shall be put into operation.
If the ship is not leaving the yard immediately after commissioning, these items shall not
be carried out. Page four in the Inspection Chart shall then be completed.

24 CYLINDER VALVES RECONNECTED TO FLEXIBLE HOSES

If the intention is to leave the CO2 system in operative condition, i.e. that the ship will be
delivered to owner and leave yard immediately, the flexible hoses shall be reconnected to the
cylinder top valve.

24.1 Unscrew the closing nut ONE by ONE on the cylinder valves and connect the flexible hose
to the outlet on the valve.

Note: It is important to note that the valves with no cotter pin in, have no safety precautions
during this operation. Therefore it is very important that removal of closing nut and connection
of flexible hose is done on one valve at a time.

24.2 Check both connection ends of hose for tightness.

25 REMOVE ALL COTTER PINS ON CYLINDER VALVES

If the intention is to leave the CO2 system in operative condition, i.e. that the ship will be
delivered to owner and leave yard immediately, the cotter pin on cylinder valves must be
removed in order to have a fully operative system.

25.1 Remove the cotter pin from the cylinder valves.

The High Pressure CO2 Fire Extinguishing System is designed in compliance with latest SOLAS,
the rules and regulations of NK.

• Quantity of free CO2 gas is calculated at filling density of 0.56 m3/kg

• Mixing ratio of CO2 gas based on the gross volume of different category of protected space:
A) Gross volume of Machinery space including casing* = 35%
B) Gross volume of Machinery space excluding casing* = 40%
C) Gross volume of Cargo spaces(largest only) = 30%
D) Gross volume of cargo spaces containing motor vehicles
with fuel in their tanks incl.cargo space on ro-ro vessels = 45%
Note: * Casing is defined as that part of engine room above the level at which the horizontal area is 40% or
less than the horizontal of engine room, taken midway between the tank top and the lower part of casing.
* For engine room, select the largest quantity from A) or B).

执行器动作时间与电磁阀、减压阀、气管等配件的Cv值，气源压力，负载等因素有关。
我们可以根据客户要求定制气孔来改变执行器的动作时间。
The operating time of the actuators depends on the CV values of the solenoid valves, regulator valves, pipes. It depends on the air
supply, operating load and so on.
We can custom the size of the holes to meet the require of the operating time of the actuators.

Sizing Information

Sizing: Double Acting Actuators

在正常操作条件下，双作用执行器考虑的安全系数为20%-30%。 The suggested safety factor for double acting
actuators under normal working conditions is 20%-30%.
示例：
阀门力矩=100Nm Example:
安全力矩=100×(1+30%)=130Nm The torque needed by valve=100N.m
气源压力=5Bar The torque considered safety factor (1+30%)=130N.m
Air Supply=5Bar
对照双作用力矩表，选配双作用执行器最小规格为 B-105DA。
According to the above table, we can choose the
minimum model is B-105DA.

Sizing: Spring Return Actuators

在正常工作条件下，单作用执行器考虑的安全系数为30%-50%。 The suggested safety factor for spring return actuator
under normal working conditions is 30-50%
例如：
Example：
阀门需要力矩=80N.m
The torque needed by valve=80N.m
安全力矩=80(1+30%)=104N.m
The torque consider safety factor ( 1+30%)=104 N.m
气源压力=5Bar
Air Supply=5Bar
对照单作用执行器输出力矩表，我们可以
According to the table of spring return actuators'
查到 B-140SR K7输出力矩为
output, we find output torque of B-140SR K7 is:
空气行程 0o=308N.m
Air stroke 0 o=308N.m
空气行程 90o=247N.m
Air stroke 90o=247N.m
弹簧行程 90o=181N.m
Spring stroke 90o=181N.m
弹簧行程 0o=120N.m
Spring stroke 0o=120N.m
所有输出力矩均大于我们需求。
All the output torque is larger than we needed.

“F4” adjustable pressure switches allow a micro-
switch commutation once a preset pressure value is
reached. The set point is adjusted working on the
central screw (P3 execution) or intercepting the
regulation dowel situated inside the instrument, using
a 2mm hexagonal key (M2 and M3). Rotating clockwise
the set point is increased and vice-versa is decreased. 66
Mechanical stops protect both the spring and the M2
micro-switch from over pressurization.
