According to an exemplary embodiment, an inerting and pressurization system for a fuel tank may be provided. The inerting and pressurization systemmay include an inert gas supply network, a number of valves and a number of air separator modules. The inerting and pressurization system may further include a programmable controller that may automatically increase the proportion of inert gas in the inert gas supply network. According to a second exemplary embodiment, a fire extinguishing system may include a number of air-separation modules that may supply an inert gas to a supply network and a programmable controller that may be operatively connected with the inert gas supply network to control how the inert gas outputs may be distributed in response to a fire threat signal.
