🔍 Key Concepts

• CO2 fire suppression systems behavior in enclosed spaces • Health effects of high CO2 concentrations on humans • Physical properties of carbon dioxide gas compared to air (heavier or lighter?)

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to people who remain inside a space that has been flooded with CO2 to put out a fire. • Consider whether CO2 itself is toxic, or whether the danger comes from something else it does to the air you breathe. • Review whether CO2 lingers or dissipates quickly in an enclosed compartment, and how its weight relative to air affects where it collects.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify whether CO2 is heavier or lighter than air and where it settles in a compartment. • Check if CO2 "snow" is considered toxic or mainly a temperature/visibility issue. • Confirm what primary hazard to personnel is always emphasized in training for fixed CO2 systems in machinery spaces and other enclosed areas.
