Inergen gas fire systems and its working

Inergen Fire Systems

Inergen gas is an inert gas fire suppressant that controls the outbreak of fires by using naturally available gases like nitrogen, argon and carbon dioxide.

It detects smoke and releases the suppressant gas and kills the fire before giving it a chance to grow. This unique patented suppressant is widely popular as it causes no harm to people, property or environment.

 

How does it work??

INERGEN® consists of 52% Nitrogen, 40% Argon and 8% CO2. In the event of fire, Inergen mixes with the air present in the room and forms into a mixture that consists of 67.3% Nitrogen, 12.5% Oxygen, 17% Argon and 3.2% Carbon Dioxide making it a safe environment for the people.

No other available inert gas has the ability to overtake the fire by providing a a safe environment for the people. It also does not lead to any harmful toxic or corrosive by product.

 

Available INERGEN systems:

The types of Inergen system depends on the kind of fire risk involved.

Below are some of the standard available systems:

INERGEN Premier

It is a 300bar gaseous Fire Suppression Systems that is designed for protecting large area. The gas release is systematically controlled by BS 7273 analogue/addressable fire detection and alarm system.

 

INERGEN Conventional

It is a 300bar inert gas Fire Suppression Systems designed for the protection of medium sized areas. The gas release is systematically designed to be controlled by conventional fire detection and alarm system.

 

INERGEN Direct Orifice

It is the most cost-effective fire suppressant system designed for smaller areas of protection. It is safe to be used on electric equipment and sensitive materials.

Reasons to use Inergen:

 

Safe for people

Unlike most of the inert gas suppressants, Inergen does not release any harmful chemicals during the process of taking over the fire. Restricts the fire by decreasing the oxygen percentage while giving a chance for the people to leave.

 

Consumes less space

It consumes less space compared to other gaseous suppression systems. The cylinders an be placed far away from the protected place.

 

Effective and Environmentally friendly

It has the compressing power of no other inert gas suppression system. As it is composed with naturally available gases, the release of it cause no harm to the environment. The gaseous by products that are formed after the release does not deplete the ozone layer.

 

Property safe

It overcomes the primary setback of most of the gaseous suppression system. It does not cause any irreparable damage to the properties. It is safe to use on sensitive electronic equipment there by making it the perfect fit for data centres and server rooms.

 

Low Cost

As there is no harmful by products or corrosive outcomes, the repairable cost is drastically reduced. It doesn’t cause any impact to your business and helps to start over in no time.
