Halonjärjestelmät
Halonjärjestelmät are fire suppression systems that utilize halon as their extinguishing agent. Halon is a colorless, electrically conductive, and inert gas that effectively smothers flames by chemically interfering with the combustion process. These systems were widely used in the past, particularly in environments where water or other extinguishing agents could cause significant damage to sensitive equipment, such as in server rooms, aircraft, and naval vessels. The principle of operation involves releasing a rapid concentration of halon gas into the protected area, displacing oxygen and interrupting the chemical chain reaction of fire.
The effectiveness of halon as a fire suppressant made it a popular choice for critical infrastructure. However,
