Pyrogen
It Really is Rocket Science
Pyrogen is a new class of fixed fire extinguishing system using solid propellant aerosol technology. Unlike conventional fire extinguishing systems, PyroGen is stored as a stable solid chemical compound which when activated generates a fire-fighting aerosol. The extinguishing medium however is not stored in a pressurised cylinder, it is produced in-situ only when required. The aerosol is a mixture of gases and micron-sized solids, possessing gas-like distribution properties and long holding times, totally floods the protected enclosure and rapidly extinguishes any fire present.
A revolution is taking place in Fire Suppression. Developed from solid rocket fuel technology, Pyrogen is the worlds' first commercially available Aerosol Fire Extinguishing System. Designed as a safe & practical alternative to Halon, Halocarbons, Chemical Powders and Inert Gases.
Pyrogen is available from stock in a wide range of canister sizes. Pyrogen is an inert non-toxic solid that remains stable until electrically or thermally activated, where upon it produces a gas-like extinguishing aerosol. The aerosol attacks the fire chemically and physically, giving virtual instant extinguishment & preventing re-ignition, and in certain instances, explosions. For many applications, Pyrogen is the only practical alternative to Halon.
