Gas Suppression System

IG-100 Nitrogen fire suppression system is a clean agent fire extinguishing system, consisting of 100% Nitrogen and is used in total flooding systems. It complies with equal smothering efficiency by reducing the oxygen concentration to extinguish the fire, while leaving a percentage of oxygen suitable for occupied areas. Due to this feature, hazards can be protected where there is the possibility that people will be in the enclosure at the time of the fire, ensuring their safe evacuation both in terms of the level of oxygen in the room, and the absence of chemicals in the discharge. In addition, its physical and dispersion properties help maintain visibility during the evacuation. Due to the low cost of the agent, IG-100 is very suitable for large, unmanned or occupied spaces.

IG-55 argonite is one of the most popular fire extinguishing systems due to the extinguishing efficiency of its mixture of agents. It is suitable for protecting hazards when there may be people in the enclosure at the time of fire. It enables a safe evacuation, both in terms of the level of oxygen in the room and the visibility required for the evacuation of personnel, as well as ensuring the absence of chemicals in the discharge. This agent reduces the oxygen concentration to extinguish the fire, but to a percentage suitable for occupied areas. The 50-50 mixture of Argon and Nitrogen allows the perfect distribution of the agent in the room for effective extinguishment.

IG-541 Inergen is a mixture of 52% Nitrogen, 40% Argon and 8% CO2. However, in the event of a fire, when Inergen is discharged, it mixes with the air present in the room to create a mixture that comprises of 67.3% Nitrogen, 12.5% Oxygen, 17% Argon and 3.2% Carbon Dioxide. This discharge mixture makes Inergen singularly unique. No other inert gas has the unique ability to rapidly extinguish a fire yet at the same time provide a safe environment for any person within the occupied area by actually decreasing cardiac distress and maintaining arterial blood oxygenation and mental performance in low oxygen levels.

Inert gas has become widely accepted as the best performing, cost effective, and environmentally friendly inert gas fire extinguishing agent, offering extended hold times and great flexibility in design. It can be stored remotely, up to 100 metres from the protected risk. This means that a single bank of cylinders can protect a large number of “Multiple Areas” far more cost effectively when compared with the most popular chemical agents on typical systems. The patented pressure regulating discharge valve used in the Inert Gas system utilises a superior valve design to automatically regulate the pressure of the extinguishant at discharge, providing an ideal discharge pressure and maintaining a constant flow rate throughout the discharge.
