Suppression Gas System

A suppression gas extinguisher system consists of gas cylinders, steel piping, discharge nozzles, heat, and smoke detector and a control panel, which monitors the space, activates both visual and audio alarms before releasing the gas.

The gas discharged after a time delay upon detection of fire to warn any occupant to evacuate the room. Such systems are usually provided for electrical transformer room, switch room and standby generator room and should not be installed for room, which is normally occupied.
