EXXFIRE Installation and Service Manual 30
What to do when the unit is activated
The installer must inform the owner on what to do when the unit is activated, and gas is released.
Nitrogen 99% and Combustion gases 1% (e.g. CO, CO2, NOx….) are released, so there is risk of
asphyxia due to the lack of oxygen and potential respiratory tract exposure when somebody is inside
the protected volume (e.g. inside the cabinet when the EXXFIRE system is activated).
Consequently, at all times, the following applies when the system is ACTIVATED:
• Immediately evacuate all people from the room in which the small enclosure is located
• Always ensure a good ventilation of room in which the small enclosure is located before
resuming operational functions.
• If needed wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting when opening the small
enclosure.
• Leave the system ON for at least 4 hours after gas deployment for the cooling fan inside the
system to actively cool down the CGG’s
In case someone accidently inhales the gas released from the CGG:
1. Bring the victim to a well-ventilated area.
2. In case of difficult breathing, give the victim extra oxygen
3. Consult a physician.
What to do when someone is exposed to chemical contents
In case the CGG is damaged and someone is accidently exposed to the chemical contents from the
CGG:
• Inhalation of dust:
1. Bring the victim to a well-ventilated area.
2. In case of difficult breathing, give the victim extra oxygen.
3. Consult a physician.
• Skin contact:
1. Remove large grain particles.
2. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes.
3. Rinse affected skin with water for at least 15 minutes.
4. Consult a physician.
• Eye contact:
1. Rinse eyes with water for at least 15 minutes.
2. Consult a physician.
• Swallowing of grain particles:
1. In case the victim is conscious immediately rinse mouth with water.
2. Induce vomiting.
3. Consult a physician, and show MSDS
