Dry Chemical Fire Suppression Systems Dry chemical fire suppression systems are piped fire suppression systems designed to provide full-time fire protection in high-risk areas where large, potentially disastrous fires could occur. They provide a means of detection and suppression for complex hazards which are too difficult and inaccessible for manual means of fire fighting or for areas where fires could be too large and hazardous for fire fighters to enter and fight. Dry chemical fire suppression systems can be engineered for both local and total-flooding applications.
