Cold storage

Avoid fire and consequential damage with Inergen

Products that are stored in a cold storage often have a great value, and are subject to strict authority requirements regarding storage and later use. The strict requirements for downtime make it even more important to choose the right method of fire protection as there are large sums at stake. If an accident occurs, it is important to have a fire protection solution that quickly detects the fire and extinguishes it without causing damage to materials, people and products. If a fire breaks out in or around a cold storage, it can quickly develop and cause extensive damage in very short time with major financial consequences. At the same time, it can involve downtime in production and extensive clean-up work after extinguishing the fire with, for example, water and foam. It may take some time before everything works as normal again.

Inergen gives you peace of mind and ensures effective fire extinguishing without consequential damage if a fire occurs.

Fire Eater - Fire Extinguishing with Inergen

Use Inergen and avoid expenses for cleaning and consequential damage

Fire protection of cold storage of e.g. medicines or food make special demands when choosing the extinguishing method. An Inergen system is a very safe and effective solution that usually extinguishes a fire in a maximum of 40 seconds and prevents subsequent reignition.

Inergen works effectively even at low freezing temperatures where other extinguishing agents are not suitable. There is often a very dry atmosphere in freezer rooms with an increased risk of static electricity. Freezers are often insulated internally with a foam material that can be very flammable. Freezers are expensive to operate. With an Inergen system in a cold storage, you can optimize the utilization of the room optimally in height because there is not the same distance requirement for nozzles as there is, for example, for sprinkler nozzles. Thus lower operating costs.

At the same time, Inergen is safe for both the environment, people and your colleagues who stay in the room where Inergen is activated.

Quality is the pivot point for all components in an Inergen plant from Fire Eater, and it has obtained all the necessary approvals. And as the only plant with inert gases, it is designed to conduct a test once the installation is complete. It gives security.

Why use Inergen for firefighting?

How Inergen works in a cold storage

An Inergen system from Fire Eater uses sensitive detectors that automatically react to fire and activate Inergen via nozzles.

An Inergen plant uses 3D extinguishing. Here, the type of air is released under pressure, which means that it is quickly distributed everywhere in the room – even in places that are normally difficult to reach. This makes this extinguishing method very efficient and suitable for places where there is little space and many valuable products are stored.

    How it works

    How Inergen systems work in a data center

    The Inergen® fire suppression system is an automated solution designed to swiftly and effectively extinguish fires. It employs an aspiration system, which incorporates highly sensitive fire detection technology capable of identifying fires in their initial stages. Once a fire is detected, Inergen® is promptly released into the room. Reducing the oxygen level just enough to stop combustion, without posing any risk of harm to individuals present.
