The TOTALPAC® N2 Cabinet

Factory assembly of the TOTALPAC® N2 cabinets ensures that all components have been carefully integrated. All systems are fully programmed and tested at the factory which facilitates the onsite installation and commissioning process.

The FireFlex® cabinets are of the freestanding type and are made of robust 14 gauge steel with a corrosion resistant fire red paint finish, polyester powder-coated and oven-baked on a phosphate base. Cabinets are also provided with two locked frontal doors that are removable without special tools, reducing space requirements for ease of installation and maintenance. Furthermore, all doors are provided with a neoprene gasket to reduce vibrations.

Technical details:

  • Factory assembled, programmed and tested under ISO-9001 standards
    Uses the Viking Model F-1 Straight Through Deluge valve
  • Optional Viking VFR-400 releasing control panel
  • Compact, aesthetic and easy to move
  • Neoprene gasket on all doors to eliminate vibrations
  • No open drain cup inside unit
  • Separate unlocked access hatch to
    emergency manual release
  • Serial number on every unit for easy
    reference
  • User-friendly standardized owner’s manual with every unit

PGEN-5FF Nitrogen Generator 

  • Handles up to 950 gallons (3596 litres) of nitrogen for sprinkler piping capacity
  • Initial sprinkler piping capacity lower than 250 gallons only requires the ECS® PGEN-5 FF compressor
  • Pre-filters and pressure regulator
  • Control panel with gauges, hour meter and power, bypass and vent switches.

Economical and Precise

The ECS® PGEN-5 FF system provide an economical, precise means of generating high purity nitrogen. Since air is comprised of ~79% N2, we simply and cost-effectively separate the N2 from the air. Nitrogen is an inert gas (noncombustible) and widely used in thousands of industries along with fire protection systems. The N2 is “generated” by means of the air compressor pushing air into the simple, safe membrane element, which in turn mechanically separates N2 molecules from other molecules found within air.

What TOTALPAC® N2 units are made of?

FireFlex systems are made of industry-recognized components. We’re proud to work with these amazing partners.

Renowned Control Panel

The Viking VFR-400 is cULus Listed, FM Approved and meets UL 864-9 requirements. It features onboard menu-driven programming with twelve pre-installed programs to facilitate set up.

The panel is compatible with multiple initiating devices such as: linear heat detection, smoke and heat detectors, waterflow indicators, low & high air pressure switches as well as manual pull stations.

_CAR6686_2
The Viking VFR400 is a microprocessor based multi-hazard releasing control panel for use on pre-action, deluge, Surefire® and Firecycle® multicycle sprinkler systems.

Aligned with key NFPA Requirements

We are actively involved in supporting and training the fire protection practitioner at all levels—including industry-related associations such as NFPA, SFPE, AFSA, NFSA and ASPE.

Releasing Circuit Disconnect Switch

Required by NFPA 72 - 2010 Edition, this feature is standard on all ourTOTALPAC® N2 units and prevents accidental discharge during maintenance or inspection. Operation of the key switch physically disconnects the release circuit wiring and causes a trouble signal at the releasing control panel.

RCDS-1
The releasing circuit disconnect switch is used to disable the releasing solenoid.
