This system uses inert gases or chemical agents to extinguish fires. It's commonly used in spaces where water-based systems could cause damage (e.g., data centers or archives).

• Types of Gases:

  • Inert Gases: Nitrogen, argon, or a mix of these gases reduces oxygen levels, suffocating the fire.

  • Chemical Agents: Such as FM-200, Novec 1230, or CO₂, disrupt the chemical reaction of the fire.

• Key Features:

  • Leaves no residue.

  • Safe for electronics and sensitive equipment.

  • Fast and efficient in enclosed spaces.

• Applications:

  • Data centers, server rooms, libraries, and museums.
