Inert gas fire suppression systems have emerged as an advanced Fire Protection technology for protecting various environments from the devastating impact of fires. In UAE, Wermany supplies Inert gas Fire Suppression Systems. Inert gas suppression systems use argon and nitrogen gases, as well as their mixtures, as extinguishing agents and operate on the idea of lowering oxygen concentrations within the protected danger. The use of inert gas reduces the oxygen concentration until it no longer supports burning. Each device is designed to reduce oxygen to a specified level. When discharged, the inert gas is swiftly and uniformly diffused within the cage, reaching the design concentration in 60 seconds.
inert gas fire suppression systems also known as gaseous fire suppression equipment or clean agent fire suppression, are widely considered as one of the most environment-friendly methods of fire suppression. The most common gases that are normally present in the system are nitrogen or argon.

Principle of Inert Gas Fire Suppression System
The basic principle behind an inert gas fire system is to reduce the amount of oxygen present in the area where the fire starts. This is important because fires require oxygen to spread. The fire becomes more manageable and easier to contain by eliminating this essential component.
Inert gaseous suppression systems normally have a detection and activation system that is coupled to a predetermined gas storage area. When a fire is detected, the discharge of gas is triggered. The most frequent type of system is a “total flood system,” which fills the entire protected risk area to achieve a certain design concentration, dampening the fire. ‘Local application systems’ can also release gas directly at a specific risk. Inert gases are colorless and odorless, harmless for humans and the environment, and do not affect property.
Wermany offers a range of inert gases, each tailored for specific applications:
Inert Gas Options
IG01 (100% Argon)
IG100 (100% Nitrogen)
IG55 (50% Argon + 50% Nitrogen)
IG541 (52% Nitrogen + 40% Argon + 8% CO2)
Inert gas agents (IG541 and IG55) are made up of naturally occurring gases in the air we breathe. IG541 and IG55 are harmless, produce no corrosive breakdown products when exposed to fire, and are intended to preserve valuable or sensitive objects that might be damaged by conventional agents. When discharged, they do not cause fog, so escape routes will be easily visible.
In contrast to halocarbon clean agents, inert gases produce no residue or byproducts when exposed to fire. Inert gases have no GWP (Global Warming Potential) or ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) and are safe to use in populated environments, according to NFPA 2001 guidelines.
LPG IG-100 ( LPG Inert Gas IG-100)
LPG INERT IG-100 (Nitrogen) is an air gas with the ability to effectively handle fire hazards in open spaces. It is an inert gas that is non-conductive, colorless, odorless, and flavorless. It is non-corrosive and can be safely used with materials such as nickel, steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, bronze, and plastics at normal temperatures. It has excellent dielectric properties and is suitable for protecting all types of electric and electronic equipment.
The system’s discharge is controlled through valves developed by LPG and approved by leading independent organizations. These valves offer flexible adaptability for various actuation and release systems commonly used in the market, including combinations of different systems.
The system is designed to prevent accidental activation due to minor leaks and allows for easy checking and maintenance of critical components during installation and routine preventive maintenance. This reduces the risk of accidental discharge and ensures the system’s reliability.
Typically, the extinguishing concentration is achieved by reducing the oxygen content in the air from its normal level of 20.9% to values below 15%, depending on the type of combustible materials present. This makes LPG INERT® IG-100 an effective and safe fire suppression solution for a wide range of applications.
Inert Gas Fire Suppression System from Wermany in Dubai and across UAE.
Using the right inert gas is essential for fire safety, but it’s also crucial to pick good alarms and set up the vent system properly. Make sure your smoke detectors work well. The vent system needs to let air out smoothly so the inert gas can do its job effectively.
Inert gas fire systems are the eco-friendly choice to protect important places like server rooms, data centers, telephone exchanges, records stores, control rooms, and many other high-value critical assets. These systems are Specifically designed for occupiable spaces and ensure excellent visibility is upheld throughout the discharge process. Our Clean Agent Fire Suppression Systems release the protective agent in a controlled way to keep everything safe.

FAQ – Inert Gas Fire Suppression System Dubai
An Inert Gas Fire Suppression System is a type of fire protection system that uses inert gases, such as Argon, Nitrogen, or Carbon Dioxide, to extinguish fires by reducing the oxygen concentration in the protected area.
When a fire is detected, the system releases the inert gas into the protected area, displacing the oxygen and lowering its concentration to a level where combustion cannot be sustained, effectively extinguishing the fire.
1. Environmentally friendly: Inert gases do not deplete the ozone layer and have minimal impact on the environment.
2. Safe for occupied spaces: Unlike some other fire suppression agents, inert gases are safe for human exposure and do not leave residue or damage property.
3. Effective suppression: Inert gases quickly suppress fires by reducing oxygen levels, preventing re-ignition.
Yes, Inert Gas Systems are environmentally friendly as they do not contain harmful chemicals or contribute to ozone depletion.
The most common inert gases used in fire suppression systems are Argon, Nitrogen, and Carbon Dioxide. An inert gas is a gas that does not form chemical reactions with other chemical substances.
While Inert Gas Systems are effective for most types of fires, they are particularly suitable for protecting sensitive equipment and valuable assets in areas where water-based suppression methods may cause damage.
Regular maintenance and inspection are essential to ensure the proper functioning of an Inert Gas System.
Before installing an Inert Gas System, We have to consider factors such as the size and layout of the protected area, the type of equipment or assets to be protected, and local regulations.
