Nitrogen To The Rescue!

Fire sprinkler systems are an integral aspect of any fire safety process. If in the event of a fire you want to feel confident that the system you have installed in your building will perform as it was originally designed. However, all systems have the potential to run the risk of being flawed. The number one error potential in fire sprinkler systems is corrosion in the piping.
Corrosion can cause pinhole leaks, damage to the equipment, and potentially revenue loss due to shut down for repairs. The best prevention method for your fire sprinkler piping lines is nitrogen – a clean, non-flammable dry inert supervisory gas.
Fire sprinkler systems mandate the assistance of a supervisory gas so that when a fire is detected through extreme warm temperatures and smoke, the gas will proceed through the open sprinkler head first, followed by the water set off by a triggered value.  Nitrogen generators supply nitrogen on demand at a low pressure, which makes it a safer alternative to using high pressure nitrogen cylinders. There are no heavy cylinders to keep on hand, only small containers as a back-up for refilling the piping if necessary.
Consider on-site nitrogen generators as your preference for a supervisory gas for your fire sprinkler systems.
