Inert fire suppression systems use argon and nitrogen gases and their mixtures to reduce oxygen levels in a protected space. Once discharged, they are evenly and quickly distributed throughout the area until the oxygen levels no longer support combustion. Inert systems discharge the agent into the space at a steady flow rate, which eliminates turbulence but still meets the 60-second requirement to distribute. Because nitrogen and argon occur naturally in the atmosphere, there is zero negative environmental impact.
The Benefits of Pro Inert Fire Suppression
Pro Inert fire suppression is the latest in fire suppression technology, offering enhanced protection that is more effective, efficient, and safe than traditional methods. Inert fire suppression systems have many advantages, including increased safety, lower installation costs, and improved environmental protection.
Benefits:
- No cleanup
- Non-conductive
- No ozone impact
- No global warming impact
- Safe for people and assets
What is Pro Inert Fire Suppression?
Pro-Inert fire suppression is a fire suppression system that uses inert gas instead of water or other extinguishing agents. It works by suppressing a fire by decreasing the oxygen levels in the affected area, preventing the fire from spreading and extinguishing it. The inert gas used in pro-inert fire suppression systems is typically nitrogen or a combination of nitrogen and argon.
Advantages of Pro Inert Fire Suppression
Pro-Inert fire suppression systems offer several advantages over traditional methods. First, they are significantly safer than using water or other extinguishing agents. This is due to the fact that water can spread the fire and cause further damage to the building, while inert gas does not.
In addition, inert gas fire suppression systems are typically much more cost-effective than traditional methods. This is because they require less installation and maintenance, and they can be used in areas with difficult conditions such as high humidity. As a result, they are becoming increasingly popular in commercial and industrial buildings.
Finally, pro-inert fire suppression systems have a major environmental benefit as well. Since they do not use water, they do not cause water run-off and do not put additional strain on water resources. Additionally, they are non-toxic and non-corrosive, meaning they do not damage the environment around them.
Common Applications:
- Archives and libraries
- Computer rooms
- Data centers
- Machinery spaces
- Mass transit
- Medical facilities
- Military installations
In conclusion, pro inert fire suppression systems offer many advantages over traditional methods. They are safer, more cost-effective, and more environmentally-friendly, making them the ideal choice for commercial and industrial buildings. If you are looking for a fire suppression system that is both effective and eco-friendly, then pro-inert fire suppression should be on your list.
