ORR Protection supplies FM-200 FE-227ea Heptafluoropropane - a fast-acting, clean-agent fire suppression gas - from Ansul, Fike, and Kidde.
FM-200 systems reach extinguishing levels in 10 seconds or less, stopping ordinary combustible, electrical, and flammable liquid fires before they cause significant damage.
When fire is extinguished this quickly, it means less damage, lower repair costs, and an extra margin of safety for people. It also means less downtime and disruption of business by the way systems are designed.
FM-200 is an important part of an environmentally-responsible clean-agent fire suppression system with zero ozone-depleting potential. This makes it a suitable choice for new installations using total flooding systems, and for Halon 1301 replacement applications.
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.
FM-200 provides fire protection in a wide range of applications from sensitive electrical equipment to industrial applications using flammable liquids and storage space. FM-200 is clean, leaves no residue, thereby eliminating costly after-fire clean-up, and keeping expensive “down-time” to a minimum with waterless fire protection.
FM-200 fire suppressant can be safely used where people are present when used as specified in the EPA’s Significant New Alternative Policy (SNAP). This clean agent extinguishes a fire by a combination of chemical and physical mechanisms. It does not displace oxygen and therefore is safe for use in occupied spaces without fear of oxygen deprivation. This allows personnel to see and breathe, permitting them to leave the fire area safely.
