Argon calculation program 7.3

Argon calculation program by VdS Schadenverhütung GmbH is a specialized engineering tool for planning and verifying argon-based gaseous fire extinguishing systems in enclosed spaces. Designed for fire protection engineers, installers, and reviewers, it streamlines the sizing of IG-01 (argon) systems by guiding users from project inputs to clear, auditable results aligned with VdS guidelines and recognized international design practices.

Key capabilities:

• Calculates required argon quantity based on enclosure volume, design concentration, and hazard class
• Applies corrections for temperature, pressure, and elevation to reflect real site conditions
• Evaluates discharge and hold-time criteria against design targets
• Provides cylinder quantity and basic storage configuration guidance
• Generates structured calculation reports suitable for submittals and approval processes
• Supports SI and US customary units with consistent rounding and safety margins

Typical applications include mission-critical rooms such as data centers, archives, control rooms, and electrical switchgear spaces, where clean, residue-free fire suppression is essential.
