Product overview
INERT-SIEX 55 uses IG-55, based on 50% argon / 50% nitrogen, for engineered fire suppression in enclosed hazards. It reduces the oxygen concentration supporting combustion, so enclosure integrity, evacuation and personnel safeguards form part of the system design. The manufacturer identifies 200 bar and 300 bar storage variants. Cylinder capacity, discharge network and selector-valve arrangements are selected for the protected spaces.

Selection and project integration
Share the protected-space drawings, hazard description, equipment schedule and project specification with UDCT. The technical review should establish the selected system configuration, required quantity, installation constraints and interfaces with the detection and control equipment. For gaseous suppression, enclosure integrity, pressure relief, discharge acoustics and personnel safeguards must be assessed as part of the engineered design.
The published model designation is a product reference, not a final bill of materials. Agent quantities, pipe sizing, nozzle selection, storage arrangements and release logic depend on the approved design. Use the current manufacturer instructions for installation, testing and maintenance, and confirm availability with UDCT before procurement.
