METHODS AND SYSTEM FOR FILLING A SUPPRESSANT CONTAINER
20200038699 · 2020-02-06 ·

Systems and methods for filling and pressurizing a container with liquid suppressant and nitrogen gas. A pressurized receiving container of nitrogen gas is initially provided at a transformative pressure and liquid suppressant is subsequently added to the pressurized receiving container. The transformative gas pressure provides a sufficient amount of nitrogen to saturate the added liquid suppressant and provide an operative head space pressure within the receiving container without the need for mechanized mixing of the nitrogen and liquid suppressant solution.
