Inert Gas System Benefits:
Flexibility
• Choice of four NFPA and ISO approved agents to suit regional
re-charge conditions and customer specifications
• Wide flexibility in selecting storage area as cylinders can be
stored at some distance away from protected area
• Argon can be used for application-specific Class D materials
(titanium dust, magnesium, etc.)
• Suitable for low temperature applications
• Suitable for rooms that are hard to seal (open spaces e.g.
museums, labs)
Lower Material Costs
•
Pressure and flow regulating valve allows for Sch. 40 pipe
•
Actuation up to 60 cylinders accomplished with a single release unit
mounted on the primary cylinder so there is no need for separate
pilot cylinders
•
Selector valves protect multiple hazards with a single cylinder
bank, reducing overall system cost
Lower Installation, Labor and Refill Costs
•
Several sizes of pre-fabricated manifolds with pre-installed check
valves ready for discharge hose connections
•
Fast & easy installation using quick-connect actuation hoses and
electrical connections
Economical agent refill cost after a discharge.
Why choose an inert gas system?
Safe for the Environment.
Pure Inert gases and the constituents of the blended versions are
found naturally in the atmosphere. These gases are environmentally
responsible, having an ozone depletion potential (ODP) of zero and a
global warming potential (GWP) of zero. At room temperature, inert
gases are colorless and odorless.
Safe for Human Exposure.
In occupied areas, people can breathe Inert gas blends at
extinguishing concentrations below 52% for very brief periods of
time during egress. There are no toxicological factors associated
with the use of Inert gases as they will not decompose or produce
any by-products when exposed to a flame.
