Inert GAs Fire Suppression System

Inert Gas Fire Extinguishing System:
The Latest Technology

Eurosafe has introduced an improvement in systems using IG-01,IG-55,IG-100,IG-541 as the extinguishing agent with the latest technology, providing benefits to the facility itself and the protected enclosure.

This innovative technology enables to optimize the design of the firefighting system with IG-01,IG-55,IG-100,IG-541 as the discharge pressure and flow control allow users to reduce the size of tubing needed for proper distribution of the agent and reduce overpressure that take place in the protected enclosure, minimizing the area for the relief of excess pressure.

INERT systems are designed to suppress fires involving class A, B and C hazards. The systems are designed to be total flooding and consist of a fixed supply of agent connected to a piping system with nozzles to direct the agent into an enclosed hazard. Inert gas extinguishes fires by lowering the oxygen content below the level that supports combustion. In simple terms, if the oxygen content of the atmosphere is reduced to a level below 15%, most ordinary combustibles will not burn. Since INERT agents are stored as a gas, it discharges as an invisible gas, allowing people to safely exit a protected space without obscured vision.

INERT gas systems are particularly valuable in extinguishing fires in enclosures containing hazards or equipment where a clean, electrically non-conductive medium is essential or where the cleaning up of foam, water or powder would be problematic.

Maximum Protection, Minimum Storage

FM200 Clean Agent GAS SYSTEM containers allow you to protect single- or multiple-hazard areas typically requiring less floor space than other inert gas systems

INERT Gases have no potential to cause global warming, do not support combustion, and have no effect on the ozone layer. The inert gas supply is as follows:

Name of Gas	Contents
INERT IG-01	Argon
INERT IG-55	50% Argon, 50% Nitrogen
INERT IG-100	Nitrogen
INERT IG-541	52% Nitrogen, 40% Argon, 8% CO2

INERT Agent Specification

Pressure (300 Bar System)	295 Bar – 300 Bar at 15° C
Pressure (200 Bar System)	195 Bar – 200 Bar at 15° C
Moisture	Max 12 ppm

Agents can be stored in storage containers at a nominal pressure of 200 psi or 300 bar at 15 °C.
Only individuals with experience working with this kind of equipment should handle and install INERT equipment. For INERT agents, the following specification is applicable.
