Inergen – marine fire suppression without consequential damage

If a fire occurs on a ship out to sea, help from land may be far away. Engine room fires in particular may have catastrophic consequences if they are not brought under control immediately. They can cause extensive material damage and ultimately threaten personal safety on board. For this reason, choosing a solution that minimizes the risk of fire damage is absolutely crucial.

With Inergen from Fire Eater you get a marine fire suppression system specifically designed to extinguish fire safely, rapidly and efficiently, and without consequential damage.

How Inergen works as marine fire suppression

An Inergen plant from Fire Eater must be triggered manually on a ship.

The facility uses a so-called 3D extinguishing system. This means that the air that is released under pressure is distributed everywhere in the room via nozzles – even in hard-to-reach places. This makes the extinguishing method particularly effective and suitable for protecting e.g. control room, pump room and machine.

Our plant has obtained all necessary approvals: IMO, ABS, DNV.
