Special Hazard Fire Systems We Service
At Safetytech Fire Services, we deliver end-to-end solutions for special hazard fire suppression systems — from initial design and DFES submission through to installation, certification, and ongoing maintenance.
Our capabilities include:
Inert Gas Systems – IG-55, IG-541, IG-100, IG-01
Environmentally friendly and electrically non-conductive, these systems are ideal for protecting sensitive equipment and occupied areas. They work by reducing oxygen levels to suppress fires without damaging assets.
Clean Agent Systems – Novec™ 1230, FM-200®
Fast-acting suppression agents that leave no residue, making them perfect for data centres, control rooms, and high-value storage facilities where downtime must be minimised.
CO₂ Suppression Systems – High & Low Pressure
Highly effective for unoccupied hazard zones, CO₂ systems quickly displace oxygen to extinguish fires. Suitable for industrial plants, marine environments, and process equipment protection.
Water/Nitrogen Hybrid Systems
Combining the cooling power of water mist with the inerting capabilities of nitrogen, these systems deliver rapid knockdown with minimal water damage — ideal for specialised industrial applications.
Marine & Offshore Fire Suppression Systems
Designed and installed to meet maritime safety regulations, our systems provide reliable fire protection for vessels, offshore platforms, and marine infrastructure.
All systems are engineered to comply with:
- AS ISO 14520 – Gaseous fire-extinguishing systems
- NFPA Standards – International best practice for fire suppression
- DFES Submission Requirements – Ensuring approval and certification in WA
With Safetytech, you get a fully compliant, expertly engineered, and precisely maintained special hazard fire protection system — built to perform when it matters most.

Why Special Hazard Systems are Essential
Special hazard fire suppression systems are designed to protect mission-critical assets, sensitive equipment, and high-value facilities where traditional water-based sprinklers could cause damage or fail to control the fire effectively.
These systems use inert gases, clean agents, CO₂, or hybrid solutions to suppress fires quickly, minimise downtime, and prevent costly damage — often without leaving residue or harming delicate equipment.
Typical applications include:
- Data Centres & Server Rooms – Protecting essential IT infrastructure and preventing costly data loss.
- Telecommunications Facilities – Safeguarding network equipment that requires minimal service disruption.
- Power Generation Plants – Ensuring continuity in critical energy supply operations.
- Marine Vessels & Offshore Platforms – Addressing the unique fire risks of maritime and offshore environments.
- Chemical Storage Areas – Containing fires involving volatile or hazardous substances.
- Industrial Machinery – Protecting high-value equipment and reducing downtime in manufacturing environments.
By installing a properly designed and maintained special hazard suppression system, you ensure rapid fire control, limit damage, and maintain compliance with industry standards such as AS ISO 14520, NFPA, and DFES requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a special hazard fire suppression system?
A special hazard fire suppression system is designed to protect high-value assets, sensitive equipment, and critical operations where traditional water-based sprinklers may be ineffective or cause damage. These systems use agents such as inert gases, clean agents, CO₂, or hybrid solutions to suppress fires quickly and safely.
Do I need a special hazard system if I already have sprinklers?
Yes, in certain environments sprinklers may not be suitable — for example, in data centres, server rooms, chemical storage, or marine vessels. Special hazard systems provide rapid suppression without damaging sensitive equipment or creating water-related downtime
Are your technicians certified to work on gaseous suppression systems?
Absolutely. All our technicians hold an Extinguishing Agent Handling Licence (EAHL) issued by the Fire Protection Industry (ODS & SGG) Board, ensuring they are legally qualified to handle, install, and maintain gaseous fire suppression systems.
What types of special hazard systems do you install and maintain?
We work with a wide range of systems, including:
- Inert gas systems (IG-55, IG-541, IG-100, IG-01)
- Clean agent systems (Novec™ 1230, FM-200®)
- CO₂ systems (high & low pressure)
- Water/Nitrogen hybrid systems
- Marine & offshore fire suppression systems
How often should special hazard systems be tested?
Annual system testing is required under AS ISO 14520 and NFPA standards to ensure correct operation. We also perform system integrity testing to confirm the protected area can maintain agent concentration during an incident.
Can you provide DFES documentation for compliance?
Yes. We prepare and submit all necessary DFES documentation, compliance certificates, and test reports to ensure your system meets all Western Australian regulatory requirements.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency services?
Yes, our EAHL-certified technicians are available 24/7 across Perth and regional WA for urgent call-outs, system faults, and emergency repairs.
Which industries benefit most from special hazard fire suppression?
We regularly work with data centres, telecommunications facilities, power generation plants, marine vessels, offshore platforms, chemical storage facilities, and industrial manufacturing plants.
Do you provide system relocation services?
Yes, we can safely decommission, transport, and reinstall your special hazard suppression system at a new location, ensuring it is re-certified for compliance.
