What is INERGEN? • A fire extinguishing system/method using an inert gas blend to extinguish a fire. • Also known as IG 541 • Main components of the system: – – Cylinders The gas. Valves, manifolds and actuators. Pipework and nozzles.

What is INERGEN? • Other important elements of the system: – – The protected room itself. Control panel and alarms. Alarm organisation, user interaction. Detection • A decade ago it was predominantly used in server rooms and Marine & Off-Shore. – Marine & Off-Shore were often manual systems only, and server rooms controlled environments where Point smoke detectors and aspirating systems would do a good job.

Airports • In CPH more than 160 systems supplied by FE: Data rooms, Apron tower, ATC, ILS/radar/generators, baggage handling technical rooms, • Systems supplied in many other airports through distributors and installers.

Benefits of the Fire Eater system • Safe for people – really safe not just theoretical. You can try it for real (full scale testing) even with a fire being extinguished. • Safe for equipment. No toxic or corrosive effects • Safe for environment. An intelligent blend of “air”.

Further benefits of the Fire eater system • Engineering and design secure a safe package also during handling, installation and system servicing. • Strong engineering support and education system (Fire Eater College). • Unique calculation software package (also available to consultants). • Unique testing and verification features integrated in system design
