Fire protection is a crucial consideration for any commercial setting. While conventional water-based systems like sprinklers are often effective, there are situations where they can cause damage to valuable assets, such as in data centres, electrical rooms, or archives. This is where gaseous fire suppression systems become an ideal solution. Designed to suppress fires without harming sensitive equipment, these systems are gaining popularity for their effectiveness and precision. Gaseous fire suppression systems use inert or chemical gases to extinguish fires, often preferred in areas with sensitive equipment or where water-based systems are unsuitable, by reducing oxygen levels or interfering with the combustion process. Gaseous extinguishing systems are designed to extinguish a fire by reducing the oxygen concentration (displacement or substitution), interrupting the chemical decomposition reaction mechanism, that is fire, or reducing the temperature of the fire/fuel to a point where fire can no longer continue. Of the three mechanisms, reducing the temperature of the fire/fuel provides much less of an impact than the other two and significantly less than water-based fire suppression or extinguishing systems. This is primarily associated with high-pressure carbon dioxide systems.

FM-200® (HFC-227ea) Clean Agent fire extinguishing systems are the most widely used of all the halocarbon gaseous agents, and is universally accepted as the best agent used to replace Halon 1301. FM-200® is a chemical agent used primarily in total flooding systems and extinguishes fires by removing heat from the fire triangle, making it suitable for protecting valuable assets in occupied areas. Ideal for data centres, telecommunications facilities, and areas with high-value assets.
Novec 1230 is a newer fire suppression agent that is quickly gaining popularity for its clean, eco-friendly, and safe characteristics. It extinguishes fires by absorbing heat, reducing temperatures to a point where combustion can no longer continue. Ideal for data centres, telecommunications facilities, and areas with high-value assets.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the oldest and most widely used gaseous fire suppression agents. It is highly effective in smothering fires by displacing the oxygen needed for combustion. Particularly suitable for electrical hazards, flammable liquid fires, and spaces where the fire might grow quickly.
Inergen is a clean, environmentally friendly fire suppression gas made up of natural components, including nitrogen, argon, and a small amount of carbon dioxide. Unlike CO2, Inergen is safe for use in occupied spaces as it reduces oxygen levels to below what is needed for combustion, but not to the point where human life is endangered.
