Carbon dioxide systems are fixed where Co2 cylinders are permanently in place and connected to a series of piping. These systems are typically found in unoccupied areas like switchgear and transformer rooms, battery rooms etc. These systems work by depleting the oxygen content in a room below the necessary levels to provide combustion. However, at this level of oxygen life cannot be supported.
