Innovative Gas Suppression Technology To Protect Sensitive Equipment From Fire
At Johnson Controls, we understand the challenges of fitting gas fire suppression systems in areas that house business-critical, sensitive equipment. For these applications, it’s crucial that you protect your assets with a reliable solution.
Our response is twofold: time-proven gas suppression agents that leave no residue and are safe to use around your business assets.
Clean, Reliable Fire Safety
If you have a particularly sensitive area of your facility to protect, choosing a fire suppression method that doesn’t damage your fragile equipment or valuable business assets is vital.
Gas suppression works as a fire suppressant by introducing a gaseous agent into the area of the fire, reducing the oxygen concentration in the air that the fire needs to burn.
This fire suppression method doesn’t leave any residue like other extinguishers and protects your assets from side effects like water damage that may occur with other suppression methods.
Some applications where gas suppression systems are highly effective solutions include:
- Server rooms
- Clean rooms
- Medical facilities and laboratories
- Museums, libraries and historical archives
- Cold storage facilities
- Offshore rigs and marine vessels
