Pyrogen Snd Bhd and our US distributor Firepak Oil and Gas Industries, Ltd. have been working with Metal Storm Ltd.  (ASX: MST and Nasdaq Small Cap: MTSX), on the development of a new innovative fire suppression concept. This system concept will be unveiled and presented at this years Halon Options Technical Working Conference  HOTWC.    held in Albuquerque, New Mexico, 30 April – 2 May 2002. Copy of the paper available at this link from NIST.

Metal Storm's 100% electronic ballistics system concept combined with Pyrogen's fire fighting capabilities provides the potential to prevent conflagrations in high rise buildings. The concept will allow fire departments and on scene commanders to suppress fires in high rise buildings, beyond the reach of ladders and conventional techniques. Rapidly deployable and flexible the combined technologies are a true revolution in high rise building fire fighting.

Deployed via Helicopter or specialized land vehicle, the Pyrogen /Metal Storm concept will allow for first response capabilities in elevated floors, buying time for the regular fire fighters to organize and begin their attack. Even in the event of a sprinkler system failure, Pyrogen aerosol can be rapidly deployed, suppressing the fire and reducing the thermal loading on the building structure. This should help delay or prevent structural collapse of the upper floors.
 
 
 

Pyrogen systems can be added to existing protection installations, replace Halon, CO2 or other fixed systems.
    Pyrogen systems can be used to enhance existing sprinkler systems. Pyrogen can protect t he space, extinguishing the fire without the water damage associated with water sprinklers. This reduces losses and saves the clean up and replacement of expensive equipment. Often the office or storage facilities can be back in service as soon as the  aerosol is ventilated from the building.
    Pyrogen systems can be specifically designed with hybrid installations for particular requirements. Libraries, museums, historical buildings as well as records storage facilities can be safely protected. High danger areas, spray booths, paint lockers, specialty storage can be protected. click here for a list of PyroGen installations in the industry

Thermal activation device: This unit senses the temperature of the surrounding space. If the detector is exposed to an open flame or temperatures in excess of 175 deg, C the unit springs into action, dispensing the aerosol. This system requires no power, and can be installed when normal systems are out of service for maintenance, repair, or loss of water pressure. When installed is the most fail safe system available today.

Electrical activation: This method ties into a normal approved control system. The system design allows for both new installations or addition to existing sprinkler or protection system.

Combination of both: Unlike most other systems Pyrogen systems can use both ignition systems at the same time. Detection systems can be better tailored to specific or unusual  threats

Pyrogen's simple installation, systems can be replaced in just a couple hours after being activated. Unlike sprinkled heads, or pressurized bottles, Pyrogen generators can be maintained on site to reduce the out service time after use. Without the clean up requirements of water, or the lead time for Halon/CO2 bottles,  Pyrogen generators can be placed back in service, once again protecting the building, often  before the fire department leaves leaves the scene.

Pyrogen is perfect for protection in Libraries, museums, or other areas where water or other chemical agents are not practical, Pyrogen's micron size aerosol particles protects the delicacy of the artifacts / antiquities with out the damage of water, or the global effects of HALO CARBONS.
