Aerosol Generator

In fire safety an aerosol generator is a devices that release fine particles or aerosols of fire-suppressant chemicals into the air in the immediate area of its installation to extinguish a fire.

An aerosol generator typically works by rapidly dispersing an aerosol mixture, which interrupts the chemical reactions within a fire, effectively stopping combustion.

Aerosol generators are commonly used in enclosed areas where traditional water or foam-based suppression may be unsuitable, such as electrical rooms, server racks, or areas with sensitive equipment.

The effectiveness of an aerosol generator relies on quick deployment and even distribution of the aerosol to suppress the fire while minimising damage to the protected area.
