H3R Perfomance, Inc. has introduced the HalGuard Automatic Fire Suppression System, featuring an EPA-approved “clean” extinguishing agent, consisting of a steel cylinder charged with a non-toxic, non-conductive and non-corrosive clean agent gas.

The company advises the system should be mounted in the center of the ceiling, as the cylinder securely mounts to the ceiling frame of a trailer or the studs in a building. The head should be closest to the likeliest source of a fire. When it detects an ambient temperature higher than its rating, the system will activate and flood the space with an inert and invisible gas, extinguishing the fire, said the company.

“Our system is very easy to install with common tools, and there is no piping or electrical power connections to consider,” said Chris Dieter, vp of marketing & distribution, H3R Performance, Inc. “Plus, should a system discharge occur, the clean agent provides total flood protection of the space to extinguish the fire, and it does not leave a mess or damage vehicles or surfaces as compared to traditional dry chemical or water-based fire sprinkler systems.”
