Description

FM-200 provides excellent fire protection in a wide range of applications from sensitive electrical equipment to industrial applications using flammable liquids. FM-200 agent is used in total flooding fire suppression systems. FM-200 is ideal for applications where clean-up of other media presents a problem, where weight versus suppression potential is a factor, where an electrically non-conductive medium is needed and where people compatibility is necessary.

FM-200 is an odorless, colorless, liquefied compressed gas. It is stored as a liquid and dispensed into the hazard as a colorless, electrically non-conductive vapor that is clear and does not obscure vision. It leaves no residue and has acceptable toxicity for use in occupied spaces at design concentration. FM-200 extinguishes a fire by a combination of chemical and physical mechanisms. FM-200 does not work by displacing oxygen and is safe for use in occupied spaces without fear of oxygen deprivation.

How an FM-200 Clean Agent System Works

Features & Benefits

  • Colorless, odorless, liquefied compressed gas
  • Stored as a liquid
  • Electrically non-conductive
  • Discharges as a gaseous vapor (due to its relatively low boiling point)
  • Zero ozone depleting potential
  • Included on the U.S. EPA Significant New Alternative Policy (SNAP) rules
  • Requires minimal storage
  • Safe for people

Extinguishing MethodFM-200 Clean Agent Nozzle Discharge

FM-200 extinguishes a fire primarily through Heat Absorption that occurs as the agent changes from a liquid to a vapor during discharge. In addition, FM-200 also disrupts the combustion reaction which aids in the extinguishment of a fire. FM-200 does not use the depletion of oxygen to extinguish a fire.
