IG 55

PROINERTTM, using the inert gas IG55 as the extinguishing agent is an environmentally clean extinguishing agent offering extended hold times and is an ideal choice for a wide variety of industries and applications. The 300 bar PROINERTTM system utilizes a superior valve design which automatically reduces the pressure of the extinguishant at discharge. This provides an ideal discharge pressure and maintains a constant flow rate throughout the system. This translates to lower costs all round resulting savings in pipework, venting area and cylinder storage.

Datasheets


 Discharge Pressure Switch

Code: C.2.07.01
Supplier: Fike
The pressure switch is used to provide an electrical input to the control panel to confirm that the system has discharged.

 IG-55 Extinguishant

Code: C.2.26.01
Supplier: Fike
IG-55 is an inert gas mixture consisting nominally of
50% argon and 50% nitrogen. IG-55 can be used as total flooding fire suppression
system protecting hazards against most flammable substances. IG-55 extinguishant is
particularly useful where an environmentally acceptable fire extinguishing system is
essential, where an electrically non-conductive medium is needed and where people
compatibility is necessary.

 80 Litre Cylinder Assembly

Code: C.2.27.01
Supplier: Fike
Fike ProInert Cylinders are offered in an 80-litre size and filled to a pressure of 200 or 300 bar. The cylinders may be utilized in single or multiple cylinder applications as needed and linked together through a common discharge manifold.

 Valve Assembly

Code: C.2.28.01
Supplier: Fike
The Fike ProInert Valve Assembly is a unique self pressure regulating valve. The ProInert Valve Assembly is a forged "brass" body which is actuated pneumatically. All valves are equipped with a safety relief disc that will rupture if the cylinder pressure exceeds a preset value.

 Discharge Hose Kit

Code: C.2.29.01
Supplier: Fike
The Discharge Hose Kit, IG71-003, is used to provide a flexible connection between the ProInert cylinder valve and the discharge piping or the distribution manifold. The Discharge Hose Kit includes a check valve to prevent loss of agent should the system discharge while a cylinder is removed for service.

 Discarge Nozzles

Code: C.2.30.01
Supplier: Fike
The function of the ProInert Discharge Nozzle, in a fire extinguishing system, is to distribute the inert gas in a uniform, predetermined pattern and concentration. The nozzles are designed to complete the discharge of inert gas in 60 seconds, or less, when installed within the design limitations of the Fike ProInert Design.

 Manifolds

Code: C.2.32.01
Supplier: Fike
The Fike ProInert Manifolds are offered in 2, 3, 4 and 5 cylinder configurations. For systems that require more than 5 cylinders, manifolds must be interconnected into a common feed pipe.

 Racking Assemblies

Code: C.2.33.01
Supplier: Fike
Cylinder Racking Assemblies are designed to support ProInert cylinder on multiple or main/reserve cylinder applications. Cylinder Racking Assemblies are available in single, double or triple row configurations. All necessary hardware and support material are supplied with each assembly.

 Instructional Signs

Code: C.2.34.01
Supplier: Fike
Instructional signs must be supplied to provide a ProInert system in which the functions of all devices are easy to understand.

 Cylinder Mounting Straps

Code: C.2.35.01
Supplier: Fike
Part Number IG71-014 Cylinder Mounting Straps are used to secure 267mm diameter ProInert cylinders to a wall or other suitable mounting surface.

 Solenoid Actuation Package

Code: C.2.36.01
Supplier: Fike
The ProInert Actuation Package contains an electrically activated solenoid valve connected to a rechargeable nitrogen cylinder, that when operated allows pressure from the nitrogen cylinder to flow into the pneumatic actuator on the ProInert valve.

 Slave Actuation Package

Code: C.2.37.01
Supplier: Fike
The Slave Actuation Package, P/N IG71-019 is utilized to operate a Selector Valve or up to 60 additional ProInert valve pneumatic actuators. It consists of a pneumatic valve assembly and a rechargeable nitrogen cylinder and is pneumatically operated from the ProInert Solenoid Actuation Package, P/N IG71-017.

 Manifold Connectors

Code: C.2.38.01
Supplier: Fike
The Fike ProInertTM Manifold Collector Assemblies are available for 10, 15, 20 and 30 cylinder configurations. Each manifold connector comes pre-assembled to allow connection to the standard ProInert Manifolds.
