Fire Suppression Systems

Argonite is an equal blend of argon and nitrogen gases that occur naturally in the atmosphere. It is popular with organisations that prefer to use a non-chemical suppression agent. With zero ODP, zero GWP and zero atmospheric lifetime, Argonite has excellent environmental credentials.

Argonite extinguishes fire by physically reducing oxygen in the atmosphere from the normal 21% to a level that will not support combustion. A typical design concentration of 40% will reduce the oxygen level to 12.5% within 60 seconds. In occupied areas personnel can continue to breathe safely at this level for short periods of time.

Argonite produces no post fire residue. Therefore there is no damage to protected equipment and nothing to clean up. The latest Argonite systems with cylinder storage pressures of 300 bar offer significant space savings over equivalent 200 bar systems. The cylinders are mounted in rows and may be stored in any suitable location, even in excess of 100 metres away from the protected areas.

Argonite is suitable for:

Railway & Airport Signal Traffic Controls

Control Rooms
Banking
Switchgear Rooms
