Fire suppression

1 June 2012 Products & Solutions

Upon discharge, Inergen instantly floods the room, remaining suspended to suppress fires quickly and effectively. An inert gas mixture, Inergen is free of residues and corrosive by-products that may produce further property damage. One of the most remarkable aspects of Inergen is that it is safe for people. It is entirely nontoxic, producing no corrosive decomposition products whatsoever.

Using water as a fire suppressant in areas where electronics operate and irreplaceable high-value assets are stored could be as devastating as fire itself. Protect them instead with an Ansul Novec 1230 clean agent system, custom-engineered to quickly suppress fires and protect sensitive equipment without causing harm to people or the environment.

The heart of the system is 3M Novec 1230 fire protection fluid, a clear, colourless and odourless clean agent. Stored in cylinders in its fluid form, Novec 1230 instantly vaporises upon discharge, totally flooding protected spaces and absorbing heat better than water. In tandem with a sophisticated Ansul Autopulse control panel, the Novec 1230 system suppresses a fire before it can start by detecting it at invisible levels. And once the danger has passed, Novec 1230 quickly evaporates without harming any valuable assets.
