Kidde 80L 300bar IG-55 Cylinder with C60 Valve with Exchange, refill and testing Argonite (01-1524-5900-C60)

FSP Can Supply Kidde 80L 300bar IG-55 Cylinder Argonite with C60 Valve Exchange, refill and testing (01-1524-5900-C60 6-01-1524-5900-K) steel, seamless gaseous fire suppression Container, filled with Inert Gas and Controlled Flow Technology is designed to reduce peak mass flow by ~60%.

Argonite (IG-55) is a clean-agent Inert Gas Fire Suppression agent that leaves no residue on discharge and is environmentally friendly.

IG-55 (Argonite) is a Mixture of 50% nitrogen and 50% Argon.

Argonite systems consist of one or more high pressure steel cylinders connected via a common manifold. The gas is distributed in the protected room via a distribution pipe system with nozzles. The inerting and extinguishing properties of Argonite act quickly to eliminate the fire. System actuation is manual or automatic by a fire detection system.

The use of the 300 bar Argonite system can reduce the number of steel cylinders by 30%. This results in more space for alternative uses or a reduction in building costs. Fewer cylinders also mean lower costs for transport, installation and maintenance as well as a smaller cost for replacing the cylinders after a discharge. The extinguishing system is brought into operating conditions quickly and cost effectively.

Kidde 80L 300bar IG-55 Cylinder Exchange, refill and testing with C60 Valve Technical Specifications and Information

• 60% reduction in peak mass flow.
• 60% reduction in enclosure pressure relief venting panel and area of aperture in the enclosed wall and therefore real savings on vent installation costs.
• Vent size can be accurately determined at the quotation stage of a project instead of relying on hydraulic flow calculations.
• 60% reduction in noise (vibration during discharge) for reduced effect on sensitive electromechanical equipment.
• 60 bar outlet pressure allows the maximum possible flow and therefore the use of smaller-diameter pipes in the distribution network.
• Elimination of high–pressure manifolds and restrictors for single zone systems without reduction in discharge nozzle pressure (60 bar).
• If more than one area in a building needs to be protected, there is no need to install several systems. A single bank of cylinders can be stored remotely from the risks with directional valves to divert the gas to where it is needed.
• Up to 60 cylinders may be actuated from a single high performance release unit.
• Easy to install with minimal risk and reduced installation time.
