Our gas suppression systems provide advanced fire suppression solutions without damaging sensitive equipment.

Inert Agent Gas Suppression System

Inert Gas Clean Agent Fire Suppression Systems are widely used for protecting critical facilities, sensitive equipment, and areas where water-based fire suppression methods could cause damage. Inert gas agents (typically a mixture of gases like Nitrogen, Argon, or a combination of the two) are stored under pressure and released intthe area when a fire is detected. These gases work by displacing oxygen in the room, reducing the oxygen concentration taround 12-15%. At this reduced level, the fire is starved of oxygen and extinguishes rapidly.

Unlike traditional suppression systems such as water or foam, inert gases dnot leave any residue, which makes them ideal for use in environments like:

    Data Centers
    Server Rooms
    Archives and Museums
    Medical Facilities
    Power Stations

Some of the most commonly used inert gases include:

    IG-01: 100% Argon
    IG-100: 100% Nitrogen
    IG-55: 50% Nitrogen and 50% Argon
    IG-541: 52% Nitrogen, 40% Argon, and 8% Carbon Dioxide (alsknown as Inergen)

Each type of gas mixture has specific properties that make it more suitable for different types of applications, depending on the fire hazards and the size of the room being protected.

Inert gas fire suppression systems are suitable for:

    Telecommunication Facilities
    Power Generation Plants
    Military Applications
    Laboratories
    Libraries and Museums
    Pharmaceutical and Medical Facilities

Clean Agent Gas Suppression System

Clean Agent Fire Suppression Systems are fire protection systems that use gaseous agents tsuppress fires without causing harm tpeople, equipment, or the environment. The key feature of clean agents is that they leave nresidue after discharge, making them ideal for use in critical environments. They suppress fires either by removing heat (physical suppression) or by interfering with the chemical reaction within the fire (chemical suppression).

    Halocarbon-based Agents:These agents are chemically designed tabsorb heat from a fire and are effective in quickly extinguishing fires. The most commonly used halocarbons include:
      FM-200 (HFC-227ea): One of the most popular clean agents, FM-200 suppresses fire by absorbing heat. It is safe for use in occupied spaces and is effective in both Class A (ordinary combustibles) and Class C (electrical) fires.
      Novec 1230 (FK-5-1-12):A newer clean agent, Novec 1230 is environmentally friendly with zerozone depletion potential (ODP) and a very low global warming potential (GWP). It acts by removing heat and is fast-acting.
      HFC-125 (FE-25):This clean agent is used in fire suppression systems where rapid cooling is required. It is effective in areas with electrical equipment and data centers.
Applications of Clean Agent Suppression Systems

Clean agent suppression systems are ideal for fire protection in locations where water, foam, or dry chemicals would be damaging or where downtime needs tbe minimized. Common applications include:

      Data Centers:Protects servers and electronic equipment from fire without damaging them.
      Telecommunications Rooms:Essential for safeguarding telecommunications equipment that must remain operational.
      Healthcare Facilities:Protects critical medical equipment and records.
      Museums and Archives:Preserves irreplaceable artifacts and documents from fire damage.
      Financial Institutions:Safeguards sensitive financial data and electronic equipment.
  • Advantages:
      Standards:NFPA 2001, UL, FM.
      NDamage:Safe for electronics and other sensitive equipment.
      Quick Suppression:Rapid discharge and effective suppression.
      Non-Toxic: Safe for use in occupied areas.
  • Technical Details:Uses agents such as HFC-227ea tinterrupt the chemical reaction of a fire.
      Discharge Time:Typically within 10 seconds.
      Concentration:Generally between 5-7% by volume.
  • Advantages:
      Standards:NFPA 2001, UL, FM.
      NDamage:Safe for electronics and other sensitive equipment.
      Quick Suppression:Rapid discharge and effective suppression.
      Non-Toxic: Safe for use in occupied areas.
 
CO₂ Gas Suppression System

A CO₂ Gas Suppression System is a fire protection solution that utilizes carbon dioxide (CO₂) textinguish fires by displacing oxygen, These systems are highly effective and are commonly used in areas where water or chemical-based systems would cause damage tequipment, assets, or processes.

CO₂ suppression systems are widely used in industries and facilities where fire risks are present but water-based suppression is not suitable. Common applications include:
    Power Generation Plants:Protects critical equipment such as turbines, transformers, and control panels from fire.
    Marine and Shipping:CO₂ systems are often installed in engine rooms and machinery spaces aboard ships.
    Manufacturing and Industrial Facilities:Used tprotect production lines, heavy machinery, and automated processes where downtime due tfire suppression could result in major losses.
    Data Centers and Electrical Rooms:Protects servers, electrical systems, and control rooms from fire without the risk of water damage.
    Paint Spray Booths and Flammable Liquid Storage:Used where there is a significant risk of flammable liquid fires.
    Mining and Hazardous Locations:CO₂ is used in high-risk environments like mines and chemical storage facilities where fires could be highly dangerous.

While CO₂ systems are highly effective at extinguishing fires, they alspose certain safety risks due tthe method by which they operate. Since CO₂ displaces oxygen, it can be hazardous tpeople if they are present in the area during discharge.
