Invisible Protection for Critical & Irreplaceable Assets
The
Clean Agent Fire Suppression System with FM-200 is engineered to safeguard high-value, mission-critical environments where traditional water or powder-based systems would cause catastrophic secondary damage. FM-200 (HFC-227ea) is a colorless, electrically non-conductive gas that extinguishes fire primarily by removing heat, with a secondary chemical interruption of the combustion chain. It leaves absolutely no residue, ensuring sensitive electronics, historical artifacts, and data remain unharmed by the suppression agent itself.
Key Features & Benefits:
-
- Zero Residue: Completely evaporates after discharge, preventing costly damage to servers, switchgear, control panels, and archival materials.
Rapid Extinguishment: Achieves extinguishing concentrations in as little as 10 seconds, minimizing fire damage and business downtime.
- Safe for Occupied Spaces: FM-200 is of low toxicity at design concentrations, allowing for use in normally occupied areas with proper safety precautions (pre-discharge alarms, abort switches).
- Environmentally Considerate: Zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and a relatively low Global Warming Potential (GWP) compared to older halons.
- Total Flooding Design: Engineered to achieve a uniform extinguishing concentration throughout the entire protected volume (room, cabinet, or sub-floor).
- Automatic & Manual Activation: Can be triggered by smoke detection systems or via manual pull stations located at exits.
System Components:
A complete system includes: FM-200 agent storage cylinders, pneumatic or electric release valves, stainless steel pipe network, discharge nozzles, smoke detectors, control panel, audible/visual pre-discharge alarms, and manual abort station.
Typical Applications:
- Data Centers & Server Rooms
- Telecommunication Switches
- Museums, Libraries & Archives
- Medical Diagnostic & Laboratory Equipment Rooms
- Control Rooms for Power Generation & Manufacturing
