ProInert offers all the benefits of other inert gas systems with several significant design improvements and enhancements that not only mean a superior product but savings to the bottom line.

Most inert gas systems discharge from the nozzle into the protected space with a high surge flow rate, creating a hazardous pressure peak. These systems use pressure reducers further down the pipe network to mitigate safety issues, but also require both high-pressure and low-pressure piping.

cost-effective systems

Since its European introduction in 2003, Fike’s innovative ProInert® has become widely accepted as one of the best performing, most cost-effective, and environmentally friendly inert gas fire extinguishing systems. Since 2009 this same technology is available in the United States, and other parts of the world requiring UL and FM approval.

Because of its unique patented valve assembly, the ProInert agent enters the protected room within the industry required 60 seconds, but at a steady flow rate preventing destructive turbulence from occurring. This constant flow rate means users can use small-diameter, low-pressure (and less expensive) piping from the inert gas container, all the way to the nozzle.

environmentally friendly

And the necessary venting area is much smaller reducing installation costs by as much as 60% on venting hardware. By using larger tanks, Pro-Inert can save up to 50% of the space required by other manufacturers. ProInert tanks can be filled with IG-55 or IG-541.

ProInert is a 100% environmentally friendly, people-safe agent with Zero Ozone-Depletion Potential, Zero Global Warming Potential, and Zero Atmospheric Lifetime. If users are looking for 100% GREEN fire protection, the choice is ProInert. ProInert agent and associated system components are UL Listed and FM-approved. FPS offers ProInert inert gas fire protection through its quality line of Fike Products.
