Fire-prevention system has greater capabilities

Wagner, fire suppression, fire safety

Wagner UK has introduced a high-performance version of its OxyReduct Compact system for preventing the outbreak of a fire. OxyReduct is well established as a fire-protection solution for mission-critical applications or where business interruption is unacceptable or where the warehouse or archive stock is invaluable.

The system creates an environment where a fire cannot start by continuously reducing the oxygen level in a closed room by adding nitrogen to the air so that most combustibles do not inflame and an open fire is impossible. People can enter or work in the protected area at any time.

The latest version has double the nitrogen-production capacity and can be installed in rooms up to 1500 m3.

Over 500 major organisations throughout Europe have installed OxyReduct systems in a wide range of applications — including IT data centres, communication suites, archives, museums, cold-freezer storage and warehousing.
