3D Gas Cooling in an acquired structure burn. The room is developed to post flashover and fire attack is launched using a Protek 365 set to 115 lpm. 12 rapid bursts of 3D Water-fog quickly bring the room back to a pre-flashover state. Defensive 3D Water-fog is then placed in the area where the firefighters are located. This cools the overhead gases and reduces the likelihood of any accumulated unburnt gases igniting.
