Advantages over other agents

- Less agent needed
Only 50 - 100 grams of agent are required to protect a space of one cubic meter. This is very low compared to other agents. A space protected by 25 pounds of dry chemical needs only about 2.5 pounds of solid aerosol material.
- No storage pressure and piping
Aerosol is created when needed. Only the solid agent is stored in a generator. Therefor, unlike other agents, no pressure vessel or distribution piping is needed. It is easily introduced as a modular retrofit system in operational facilities
- Simple and dependable activation
Actuation can be mechanical or electrical, manual or automatic. It is easy to combine the activation and various detection and activation controls
- Low temperature
The agent can be actuated at low temperature as long as a spark can be generated. Therefor the solid aerosol can be used a very low temperatures
- Long shelf life: +15 years
- No ozone depletion potential, no global warning potential
- No toxic decomposition products
