Oxygen Reduction
LOX® provides 100% protection against fire by reducing oxygen levels so that fire cannot occur. Ideal solution where water and other extinguishing agents can cause irreparable damage to the contents or building.
- Does not hinder work and does not require 100% sealed spaces
- Requires few structural adaptations
- Environmentally friendly
- Energy-friendly
- Real time monitoring
- Provides the same protection everywhere in the room
Modular design means that LOX® can be used in both small and large projects.
Particularly suitable in:
- Data rooms/data centers
- Cold storage/cold storage
- Automatic warehouse
- Li-ion battery storage
- Archives/Museums
- Celluloselager
- Storage for hazardous substances

LOX® is the most effective and profitable solution for preventing fires in cold stores
Due to the extremely dry air that occurs in a cold storage, the risk of fire is extremely high, despite the fact that the temperature is below zero degrees Celsius.
By lowering the oxygen level to a value where ignition is impossible, the risk is almost completely eliminated.
The LOX® fire prevention system reduces the oxygen level in the protected area from the normal level of 20.9% (at sea level) to the desired level. This is done by constantly adding a controlled amount of additional nitrogen to the air in the protected area.
The LOX® protected area remains accessible to those working in space, because the oxygen level is only lowered to a level of between 15% and 17%, which corresponds to the natural oxygen level at an altitude of 1750 – 2000 m.
Preventing a fire from occurring is much better than extinguishing the fire after it has occurred and has led to a halt in business and extensive damage to the building and assets.
Therefore, the LOX® fire prevention system is the best available fire prevention solution available for refrigeration and cold storage.
Some of the key benefits of using LOX® Low Oxygen System refrigeration and cold storage:
- Permanent prevention of outbreaks and the spread of fire;
- Continuous fire prevention without the need for refilling or replacing components as well as the possibility of having a fully redundant system;
- Easier and less costly installation process compared with traditional fire suppression system;
- Environmentally friendly – no toxic or harmful chemicals are used;
- Reduced risk of environmental damage thanks to active and preventive fire prevention;
- Employees have full access and can stay in the protected area at all times;
- Modular design means that a LOX® – Low Oxygen Systems can be configured for both small and large needs;
- The full capacity of the warehouse can be used and the entire warehouse is equally well protected – including inside hard-packed pallets etc;
- An environment with reduced oxygen levels reduces oxidation (rust) and slows down the rate of degradation of products, materials and equipment.
