IG-541 is used as agent for extinguishing fires in sensitive areas e.g. computer rooms. machinery storage facilities sensitive devices, storage facilities, etc.
IG-541 consists of Nitrogen (52%), Argon(40%) and Carbon Dioxide (8%). It is odourless, colourless, non - corrosive and because of the fact that consists of gases that exist in the atmosphere, it has no effect on the ozone layer and has zero effect on the rising of the atmospheric temperature.
IG-541 extinguishes the fire by decreasing the existing oxygen levels of the area below 13% (most common materials stop burning at this level). In the same time, the Nitrogen of the mixture protects any human being trapped in the area from a low oxygen level.
IG-541 is stored in High Pressure cylinders of various capacities.
A Common System Consists of:
Steel High Pressure Cylinders, seamless and of various capacities, electrostatically painted in red with black - grey - green colour neck.Cylinders are certified according 99/36/EC and EN 1964 - 1 (π).
System Valves pneumatically-manually or electrically activated with potential use of a fuse. An electrically activated solenoid valve can be used, depending on the needs of the user.
Steel Pilot Cylinder 3Lt capacity, containing Nitrogen, with manually, fuse activated valve or electrically activated valve depending on the requirements of the user (Pilot Cylinder is used in case of a battery of more than two cylinders). Cylinder is CE certified according 97/23/EC by (TUV) (CE 0036).
High Pressure Collector, 300bar, Galvanized, its diameter varies from 1¼” to 3”, with ¾” inlet and outlet varying from ¾” to 3”. Non-return valves ¾” - ¾”.
Also provided: Cylinder Bracket, High Pressure Flexible Hoses for connecting the cylinders to each other and to the collector, various types of Nozzles.
