INERT GASES
GEM 55
GEM55TM Engineered Fire Suppression systems are designed for total flooding in accordance with NFPA 2001 “Standard on Clean Agent Fire Extinguishing Systems”. It consist of inert gas extinguishing agent: IG-55 (50% Nitrogen and 50% Argon). Inert gas is pressurized and stored in seamless cylinders assembly which hold at 200bar/300 bar at 15°C (2900psi/4351psi at 59°F). GEM541TM systems are ideal for total flooding applications to suppress Class A, B and C hazards. The main extinguishing mechanism of inert gas is by lowering the oxygen content below the level that supports combustion.

GEM 55
GEM55™ works by reducing oxygen concentration to extinguish the fire; preventing re-ignition. The inert gas mixture enables even distribution throughout the protected area. Likewise, it can achieve great heights and distances due to its high storage pressure.
