Firecharger racecar fire suppression systems are activated by a pull cable that releases the CO2 propellant into the fire bottle where it pressurizes and aerates the AFFF foam solution. At the same time the sudden increase in pressure opens a non-fragmenting rupture disc. The foam mixture discharged by the Firecharger fire system contains CO2, not air--- producing an extra level of protection.
Our racecar fire bottles are user-rechargeable by replacing the AFFF mixture, rupture disc and the CO2 cartridge, saving the cost of the recharge, the shipping to and from the manufacturer and the associated HAZMAT fees with gases like Halon, FE and FM.
