MICRO-ENGINEERED DROPLETS ACHIEVE RAPID SUPPRESSION WITH MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY.
Misting systems
01
A water mist system is a fire protection solution that uses ultra-fine water sprays to control, suppress, or extinguish fires. The small droplets enhance firefighting performance by:
-
Cooling flames and surrounding gases through rapid evaporation
-
Displacing oxygen as the mist vaporizes
-
Reducing radiant heat through the shielding effect of fine droplets
02
Effective fire suppression does not have to be cost-prohibitive. Through partnerships with leading industry specialists, Iceberg delivers solutions that are both cost-efficient and fully aligned with NFPA 750 design methodology.
03
The performance of a water mist system is determined by its spray characteristics, including droplet size distribution, flux density, and spray dynamics, in relation to the fire scenario such as fuel shielding, fire size and ventilation conditions.

Features
STANDARD FOR SYSTEM DESIGN
The NFPA 750 defines three pressure regions for water mist-generating technologies:
low, intermediate and high pressure systems
Iceberg Industries predominantly focusses on high pressure water mist systems which consistently deliver:
-
Better penetration into the seat of the fire
-
Superior coverage of the protected volume
-
An improved cooling effect and high evaporation rate
-
Lower overall system weight
-
Less water consumption
Benefits of Misting System Design
-
Design, installation, and commissioning are significantly faster than conventional suppression systems such as sprinklers.
-
Suitable for a wide range of applications while keeping project costs low.
-
Uses up to 90% less water than traditional sprinkler systems.
-
Produces very little residual water damage to assets and infrastructure.
-
Reduces secondary combustion through effective heat absorption.
-
Responds quickly for rapid fire knockdown.
-
Suppresses a wide variety of fire types with proven performance.
-
Delivers effective protection with sustainable operating characteristics.
