We deliver the highest quality systems from global device manufacturers

SIEX-NC™ 1230 stands out for its outstanding suppression power by ensuring efficient liquid agent distribution throughout the protected hazard. The equipment is optimized to work with the SIEX-NC™ (FK 5-1-12) clean agent. Known as “liquid that doesn’t wet”, this extinguishing agent far exceeds the benefits of water since it does not damage equipment and evaporates easily.

It works by total flooding, extinguishing the fire in a few seconds. It is suitable for class A, B and C hazards. It is designed to protect delicate and important hazards such as data processing and telecommunication centers, banks, museums and libraries, where water would not be viable.

Our extinguishing system is fully aligned to the special characteristics of the agent, providing the most reliable and cost-effective systems. This system is pressurized with dry nitrogen, providing different pressures depending on the hazard’s requirements. All these systems have internationally renowned VdS approvals.

SIEX has specific software for the system to ensure its effectiveness. Our design team also offers advice for each project, always providing the solution that best suits each need. SIEX-NC™ 1230 meets ISO 14520, UNE 15004 and NFPA 2001 standards, on which these system calculation requirements are based.

• Designed for the most serious threats, including electrical
• No damage to equipment
• It is not harmful to one´s health
• High safety margin (4.2%)
• Rapid evaporation
• Zero damage to the ozone layer

SIEX-NC™ 1230 is an extinguishing agent similar to water in appearance, but with much more effective extinguishing properties, including the fact that it does not wet the materials it comes into contact with.

The discharge contains a colorless, nearly odorless, non-conductive and fast-evaporating liquid.

It has the lowest level of design concentration and a higher safety margin than the Halon 1301.

Its ozone depletion potential is zero. It extinguishes the fire thanks to a cooling effect, reducing the flame’s thermal power and interrupting the combustion reaction. It guarantees flooding of the room due to its low vaporization temperature.

SIEX-HC™ 227 S-FLOW was developed and manufactured by SIEX as an enhancement to traditional halocarbon gas systems, optimizing its features to meet the most demanding expectations. The development of the new S-FLOW valve means that a wider range of pressures can be used. In addition to the usual 25 and 42 bar at which the gas is commonly discharged, this new technology allows working pressures of 32, 34, 50, 55 even 60 bar.

This allows greater application flexibility and significantly expands the hydraulic calculation options. With this new system it is possible to protect hazards further away from the storage cylinders, while maintaining the same discharge characteristics. Other brands would be forced to use other agents, significantly limiting the protection options. Likewise, the gas storage space is optimized. At higher pressures, the amount of agent can be increased without increasing the storage volume. It also allows for larger volumes or larger rooms to be protected without increasing the space taken up by the installation, nor increasing the associated cost.

These benefits are possible because SIEX has the widest range of components (valves, actuators, fill monitoring systems, etc.) which helps optimize the hardware design. As with traditional systems, the new system allows selector valves to be used, with fewer restrictions, for the simultaneous protection of several hazards. All of this results in significant benefits when choosing the most suitable protection equipment for the hazard in question. Both the components and the system as a whole have VdS, FM and UL approvals.

• Greater number of working pressures
• Components made to withstand higher pressures
• Increased piping distance for the protection of the hazards located far away.
• Increased storage capacity
• Suitable for occupied areas
• Wide range of cylinder capacities
• Ideal for using selector valves
• Minimal installation space
• Specific hydraulic calculation software

It uses DuPont FM-200® extinguishing agent. This agent does not react with moisture or other agents, so no toxic or reactive products are generated which might damage the protected property or equipment in case of discharge. Furthermore, it is the most suitable gas for occupied areas.

CO₂ is most likely the gaseous extinguishing agent that has the greatest number of installations worldwide. Its accumulated experience facilitates the engineering of a huge number of applications which have become standard, such as electrical generators, transformer stations, etc.

Its low cost and worldwide availability make CO₂ the leading product in many applications, including the marine sector. Full scale tests can be carried out, refilling is immediate and inexpensive. Its versatility makes it suitable for use in total flooding applications and for local application, including fixed hose stations.

This system is unique. It is different from other fixed gaseous agent systems because it allows local application. It is very useful when it comes to protecting larger rooms, rooms with openings and rooms containing personnel. The discharge is designed to be applied directly over the hazard being protected. The nozzles are installed directly over the equipment.

The amount of agent is calculated according to the size of the hazard. Its extinguishing mechanisms are due to the reduction of the oxygen concentration to below 15% and the cooling and absorption of the heat from the flame. This agent is intended for normally unoccupied areas. Certain precautions must be taken when it is used in normally occupied areas.

The projects comply with ISO 6183, NFPA12, 4007 CEPREVEN and CEA standards. All these standards provide us with a guide on how to define and calculate the unique properties for each protection. We focus carefully on the CO₂ seepage that may occur through openings in the room, calculating any additional amount of gas that may needed to the system.

• Harmless to the ozone layer
• Electrically non-conductive
• Available worldwide
• Low cost
• Clean, leaves no residue
• Versatile, local application and total flooding
• VdS, UL & FM approvals

INERT-SIEX™ clean agent systems are made up of gases found in the atmosphere and are therefore completely environmentally friendly. They work by completely flooding the room, reducing the oxygen content necessary for combustion, but at the same time ensuring adequate oxygen concentrations for use in occupied areas.

They can work at pressures up to 300 bar (4350psi), providing savings in the installation cost. We also have 200 bar (2900psi) systems, depending on the volume / concentration needs. Thanks to the use of calibrated restrictors which reduce the pressure, conventional schedule pipes can be used. This system is specifically designed for installations with longer distance pipe runs.

As is the case with our SIEX HC systems, INERT-SIEX™ systems use the full range of extinguishing agents. This makes it easier to fully adjust the design to the needs of our customers. The cylinders may contain: Argon (IG-01), 50% Argon and 50% Nitrogen (IG-55), Nitrogen (IG-100) and 52% Nitrogen + 40% Argon + 8% CO₂ (IG-541). The different characteristics of the areas to be protected are analyzed in detail by our technicians to advise you on the most suitable type of extinguishing system and agent.

• Zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and greenhouse effect.
• Allows for longer pipe runs.
• Suitable for occupied areas.
• Excellent post-discharge visibility.
• Very low refill cost.
• Easy to obtain anywhere in the world.
• Cost savings using selector valves.

•  ISO 14520 UNE -EN
• 15004 NFPA 2001
• CEA 4000 (CEPREVEN)
• Certification FM / UL / VdS

Data centres include increasingly sensitive devices, especially to noise. High frequencies combined with sound pressures of over 110dB may affect the operation of their hard drives and cause permanent damage. It is essential that the fire protection system avoids damage not caused by the fire, but generated collaterally by the noise of the discharge.

SIEX SALC silencers reduce noise to below 90 dB in the most adverse case, far below the 120 dB of a free discharge and the 100 dB available on the market. It also allows for installation both in new projects and existing. They offer maximum benefits in use with inert gases (60 second discharges) and are compatible both with falling pressure technology (with restrictor) and with the new Constant Flow Technology (flow rate control in the DR valve).

Fire alarmsystems are designed and installed according to individual needs and requirements of a particular object. Therefore, the scope of their operation, as well as the extent of both structural and functional can vary greatly. However, the main task of fire alarm systems is to automatically alert a person in the building, the manager or the fire department about a detected fire, which appeared in the building. Acoustic, or acoustic-optical alarm allows the appropriate services and personnel to react to the threat, while people in the building can start evacuation at an early stage of the fire.

The fire alarm system can be integrated with other fire protection systems. Integration then allows for a wider fire alarmsystem response, which is not limited to alerting when a fire is detected, but starts actions aimed at limiting the spread of fire, or its complete liquidation. The fire alarm system control panel, after receiving a signal from detectors detecting smoke, or increased temperature, can perform a number of operations, such as running a system of sprinklers or fixed fire extinguishing devices at the place of fire detection, it can also open smoke flaps as well as windows and aeration gates. Other reactions of the system can be initiating the shutdown of dangerous electrical and gas devices, opening escape doors or access control gates, as well as a number of other actions to improve evacuation and directly combat the threat.

The heart of every fire alarm system is the headquarters. It receives signals from the detectors, analyzes the data and transmits them to the subsequent components of the entire system. The control panel usually has a display that allows it to be operated by personnel. The other components of the fire alarmsystem are:

• Smoke detectors, temperatures detect the danger and transmit this information to the control panel,
• Sound and optical alarms alert you to the event,
• Manual call points allow you to manually switch on the fire alarmsystem after noticing a fire.

Xtralis is a world leader and pioneer in the field of fire safety, and its VESDA aspirating smoke detection system is the undisputed No. 1 brand in the world.

VESDA systems protect millions of investments worldwide, the functioning and security of which is ensured by our system.

Fire protection is mainly the protection of human life. Investment security in terms of the continuity of operation of a Data Center facility, detection of large spaces, protection of high storage warehouses, protection in difficult weather conditions are tasks that should be entrusted to the best system.

With today’s technological development, it is not possible to effectively protect the server room without the use of an aspirating system.

The VESDA Aspirating Smoke Detection System is a combination of a highly sensitive smoke detection system and a modular design of devices. The laser analytical chamber of the VESDA system is characterized by very high sensitivity and thanks to the ability to detect trace amounts of smoke, it is able to provide the earliest possible warning of a fire hazard. The modular design of the VESDA system gives the user the flexibility to build a system precisely tailored to his requirements, while reducing costs to a minimum by eliminating unnecessary equipment. The original design of the system also guarantees low maintenance costs.

VESDA is an active smoke detection system that continuously draws air from a fire zone for analysis in order to detect the presence of smoke. The air is sucked in by an integrated suction pump, thanks to which the system is not dependent on the presence of air currents in the vicinity of the detector, which can deliver smoke particles to it. This ensures the effective operation of the VESDA system in all conditions – from very intensive air exchange to the lack of it.

The driving element of this process is a suction pump that sucks air through a network of suction tubes (main and capillary) connected to the manifold inlet manifold. The tubes have suction openings through which air is sucked in. An important element of each detector is a filter with a two-chamber design, which stops even the smallest mechanical particles contained in the sucked air, thus contributing to the optimal protection of the head against damage.

The VESDA system is available in three series: VESDA Standard , VESDA Premium , VESDA Industrial .

VESDA detectors are available in various versions to provide functionality in many facilities, industries and applications. From small to very large open spaces and from the cleanest to the dirtiest working environments. The VESDA system provides reliable detection at multiple levels with varying levels of sensitivity.
