  • I think the CO2 discharged because that poor siren was about to explode O_o

  • @Alientank Yeah I know no one was in there, but you know what I mean...

  • @mathieupoussin It's sirens. They activate once two zones have detected a fire is present. Usually a 30 second delay occurs with sirens and strobes going and then discharge.

  • @NitriXen It's just the one room you have to leave not the building.

  • @silentknight2112 No there is not. There is however oxygen masks required by law to be scattered across the room in easy to locate areas. You can stay in the room as long as you have an oxygen mask.

  • @HighFlyingHunter This is not illegal in the US. It's a safe and cheap system to use. However a lot of training is required for staff, as it displaces oxygen so fast you have little time to react once it discharges.

  • @Jet390 There's no one standing in the room. It's a camera set up and remote controlled. If you were in that room you would be dead unless you had your own personal oxygen supply.

  • @Jet390 You're wrong of it. Halon 1301 is the agent used in fire protection systems for computer rooms and other systems before the ban. It breaks the chemical chain reaction. If you don't believe me look up "Fire extinguisher" on wikipedia and read the last paragraph under "History". I know people aren't supposed to trust wikipedia but the entry is right, and I'm too lazy to go looking elsewhere for a definitive authoritative answer.

  • I feel bad for the sorry sucker that got stuck in here. BTW why is the camera having a hard time focusing at the end??

  • @Alientank Wait, last time I checked (today) halon gas displaces the oxygen, I'm telling you, I'm sure of it!
