Fire Extinguishing Systems
The Natural Choice in Fire Protection
Argonite extinguishes fires by reducing the oxygen concentration within an enclosure to between 10% and 13%, a level acceptable to human exposure over short periods. Argonite does not contain any mixture of CO2 or chemicals, i.e. when contact with fires it does not produce toxic by-products. With this, Argonite is particularly suitable for use in manned areas, eliminating fires quickly and effectively without affecting personnel.

Argonite leaves no residue after discharge and will not damage sensitive equipment. It is ideally suitable for use in areas consist of high value assets, where fires can have devastating consequences way beyond the cost of damage and lost production. Therefore operation downtime is minimized, resulting in mitigating financial losses.
Tested and approved by major international authorities and classification bodies, Argonite is effective against fires in almost all combustible materials and flammable liquids. Argonite is suitable for use in areas where the use of water, foam or powder would be unacceptable.
