Oxygen Reduction Fire Prevention for Nuclear Facilities
Protect critical infrastructure and designated areas within nuclear facilities with FirePASS® oxygen reduction fire prevention. Designed for suitable controlled environments, FirePASS maintains a precisely regulated low-oxygen atmosphere that significantly reduces the risk of ignition and provides a proactive layer of fire protection.
Unlike conventional fire suppression systems for nuclear facilities, which respond after a fire has been detected, FirePASS focuses on reducing the conditions required for ignition within the protected area.
- Continuous fire prevention for designated nuclear facility environments
- No water discharge, helping protect sensitive equipment and infrastructure
- No chemical extinguishing residue or cleanup
- 24/7 protection for critical assets, systems and infrastructure
- Precisely controlled oxygen levels through continuous monitoring and regulation
- Engineered for suitable nuclear facility fire protection applications
More Than Nuclear Fire Suppression
Traditional nuclear facility fire suppression systems are designed to detect, control or extinguish a fire after ignition. FirePASS takes a preventive approach by continuously maintaining an engineered oxygen concentration within the designated protected environment.
At the controlled oxygen setpoint, conditions are created in which common combustible materials are far less likely to ignite. This makes oxygen reduction fire prevention a potential additional layer of protection for suitable nuclear applications where fire risk reduction and the protection of safety-related or mission-critical equipment are essential.
Protect Critical Nuclear Infrastructure Before Fire Starts
Fire incidents within nuclear facilities require robust prevention, detection and protection strategies. For suitable controlled areas, reducing the probability of ignition can complement other engineered fire safety measures and help protect critical equipment and infrastructure.
FirePASS provides continuous fire prevention for designated areas within nuclear facilities, helping reduce ignition risk without relying on water discharge or chemical extinguishing agents within the protected environment.
