NATURA™-Micro Inert Gas Fire Suppression System
Self-Contained Fire Protection for Cabinets, Enclosures, and Critical Equipment
The NATURA™-Micro Inert Gas Fire Suppression System is a self-contained fire detection and suppression solution designed to protect cabinets, enclosures, and localized hazards. By combining early detection with clean IG-100 inert gas suppression in a compact, integrated unit, NATURA™-Micro enables rapid response directly at the source of a fire.
As part of the KiddeFenwal NATURA™ portfolio, NATURA™-Micro extends inert gas protection to smaller, high-value environments—helping prevent incidents from escalating while minimizing downtime, damage, and disruption.
Key Advantages
- Self-Contained Detection and Suppression
Integrated detection and IG-100 inert gas suppression in a single unit simplifies installation and accelerates response time - Early Fire Detection at the Source
Detects fire conditions within cabinets and enclosures before escalation, enabling fast, targeted suppression - Clean, Residue-Free Protection
Non-particulate inert gas discharge protects sensitive electronics without leaving residue or causing corrosion
- Minimized Downtime and Business Impact
Suppresses fires in the incipient stage, supporting operational continuity and faster system recovery - Simple Installation and Operation
No special software or commissioning tools required, reducing setup complexity and deployment time - Modular and Scalable Design
Up to 8 units can be connected toget
Applications
NATURA™-Micro is designed for localized fire protection in enclosed environments where sensitive equipment and continuous operation are critical, including:
- Electrical and control cabinets
- Server racks and data enclosures
- Telecommunications equipment
- Industrial control panels
- High-value or mission-critical equipment
System Architecture
System Overview
NATURA™-Micro integrates detection, activation, and suppression into a compact system designed for direct, localized protection.
Suppression Method
- Utilizes IG-100 inert gas to reduce oxygen concentration and extinguish fire
- Non-particulate discharge preserves equipment and eliminates cleanup
- Rapid suppression at the source of ignition
Cool Gas Generator (CGG) Technology
- Generates low-pressure nitrogen at ambient temperature upon activation
- Disperses clean gas directly into the protected enclosure
- Provides reliable, maintenance-friendly suppression with a 10-year life time
System Integration
- Includes activation module, internal power supply, and battery backup
- Provides three relays (pre-alarm, alarm, and fault) or two relays (alarm and fault) for system monitoring, depending on system type chosen
- Designed for standalone operation or integration into broader safety systems
Detection Options
NATURA™-Micro is available in two detection configurations to meet different application requirements:
NATURA™-Micro ASP (Aspirating Smoke Protection)
Designed for early warning detection, ASP continuously samples air using multiple optical sensors to identify smoke at the earliest stages.
- Three optical smoke sensors for continuous monitoring
- Ideal for high-sensitivity environments and critical equipment
- Enables rapid detection before visible fire develops
NATURA™-Micro LHS (Linear Heat Suppression)
LHS provides reliable heat-based detection for applications where robust, straightforward detection is required.
- Linear heat detection cable for direct temperature sensing
- Ideal for harsher or less controlled environments
- Simplified installation and dependable operation
Available Models
NATURA™-Micro systems are available in multiple sizes to match enclosure volume and protection requirements:
ASP Models
- ASP 750 – up to 44.1 ft³ (1.25 m³)
- ASP 1500 – up to 88.3 ft³ (2.5 m³)
- ASP 2250 – up to 132.4 ft³ (3.75 m³)
LHS Models
- LHS 750 – up to 44.1 ft³ (1.25 m³)
- LHS 1500 – up to 88.3 ft³ (2.5 m³)
- LHS 2250 – up to 132.4 ft³ (3.75 m³)
Up to eight units can be connected to protect larger combined volumes up to approximately 1,059 ft³ (30 m³)
