FM 200 is a colourless, odourless gas containing only carbon, hydrogen and fluorine, thereby lacking the ozone-depleting presence of bromine atoms. Highly penetrative and achieving an homogeneous dispersion in the hazard zone, it acts on fires largely by physical means, lowering the temperature of the flame and fuel to a point at which combustion reactions cannot be sustained. There is no significant obscuration on discharge and this non-corrosive and electrically non-conductive agent causes no damage to sensitive equipment with no post discharge clean-up required.
BENEFITS
Fast and effective against a wide range of Class A, B and electrical fires
Safe for occupied areas
Non-corrosive and electrically nonconductive
No post-discharge residue and clean-up
Environmentally acceptable
25 bar system
Range of system release options
Low installation and maintenance costs
Computer design maximizes effectiveness of system
APPLICATIONS
FM 200 systems are ideally suited to the protection of high value assets from both loss by fire damage and the accompanying catastrophic plant down-time. Applications include:
Computer suites, EDP facilities and telecommunications hardware
Control rooms such as railway signalling centres and air traffic management centres
Stores and archives
Heritage sites such as art galleries and museums
Medical and laboratory equipment
Petrochemical plant, offshore oil and gas installations, pipeline pumping stations
Ship machinery spaces, rail locomotives and rolling stock
