FM200 Low GWP Fast Acting Fire Suppression System

Product Specification

FM200 Low GWP Fast Acting Fire Suppression System

Fire extinguishing agent FM200, also known as heptafluoropropane (HFC-227ea), is a cleaning agent that can quickly and effectively extinguish fires in different environments. It absorbs the heat of the fire source and interrupts the chemical chain reaction of the flame to extinguish the fire. It is a colorless, odorless, no residue gas, safe for electronic equipment and data, and basically harmless to the human body.

Physical and chemical properties

Chemical Formula: The FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) Fire Suppression System uses a synthetic, organic compound called heptafluoropropane (HFP) as its active agent. The chemical formula for HFP is C3HF7.

1.Colorless and Odorless: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) is a colorless, odorless gas that is difficult to detect without specialized equipment.

2.Non-Corrosive: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) is non-corrosive, meaning it does not react with or damage metals, plastics, or other materials commonly found in buildings and equipment.

3.Low Toxicity: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) has a low toxicity level, which means it is safe for human occupancy when used in accordance with design and installation guidelines.

4.High Boiling Point: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) has a high boiling point of 16.4 °C (61.5 °F), which means it remains in a gaseous state at room temperature and pressure. This property allows it to quickly disperse and distribute throughout an enclosed space to suppress a fire.

5.Non-Conductive: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) is non-conductive, which means it does not conduct electricity. This property makes it safe to use in areas where electrical equipment is present.

6.Low Global Warming Potential: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) has a low global warming potential (GWP) of 0.02, which is much lower than other commonly used fire suppression agents such as halon.

7.Rapid Extinguishing Action: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) can extinguish fires quickly by removing heat from the fire triangle, interrupting the chemical chain reaction, and reducing the concentration of oxygen in the protected space.

Components

A complete fire suppression system has two parts, one is fire extinguishing part and the other is electrical elements part. Because there is a part focus on eletrical elements, so here will not talk about it anymore. The fire extinguishing part is list out as followings:

1/ Fm200 cylinder

2/ Container valve

3/ Solenoid actuator

4/ Flexible hose

5/ Liquid flow check valve

6/ Cylinder frame

7/ Manifold

8/ Safety valve

9/ Pressure switch

Application

Electronic computer room, a data processing center, telecommunications facilities, process control, expensive medical equipment, industrial equipment, library, museum and art gallery, clean room, anechoic chamber, emergency power facilities, flammable liquid storage area, etc.

The place where the fire is easy to happen, like paint-spraying production line, aging-electrical equipment, rolling machine, printing machine, oil switch, oil immersed transformer, melt impregnating tank, tank, large generators, drying equipment, cement pro duction process of pulverized coal, and the ship's engine room, cargo hold, etc.

Advantages

The FM200 Fire Suppression System is a popular choice for protecting sensitive and valuable equipment and materials in a variety of settings. Here are some of its advantages:

1.Quick and Effective Suppression: FM200 is a fast-acting agent that can quickly suppress fires without causing harm to people or the environment. It can extinguish fires in as little as 10 seconds, which can help prevent significant damage and downtime.

2.Safe for Human Occupancy: FM200 is a clean agent, meaning that it does not leave any residue or damage to equipment, electronics, or sensitive materials. It is also safe for human occupancy since it has low toxicity levels and does not displace oxygen in confined spaces.

3.Non-Conductive: FM200 is a non-conductive agent, which means that it can be used in areas where electrical equipment is present, such as data centers, server rooms, and other critical facilities. It can effectively suppress fires without damaging sensitive electronic equipment.

Packages

We always pack it with polyfoam firstly and then put it into a wooden case. Sometimes, in order to meet with customers or the safety requirement, we will make a pallet for the goods.
