HALI GAS FM-200 (UL approved HFC-227ea) is non ozone-depleting ideal alternative for Halon 1301, which is a suitable fire extinguishing agent for total flooding, portable, and local application systems.
HALI GAS FM-200 is noncorrosive, electrically nonconductive, free of residue, and characterized by low toxicity. It is ideally suited for protection of high-value assets such as those found in computer rooms, data control centers, telecommunication facilities, and museums. The fire extinguishing concentrations of FM-200 allow it to be used as a total flooding agent in normally occupied spaces for the protection of Class A (solid), Class B (liquid and gas), and Class C (electrically energized) hazards.
FM-200 is also suitable for use as an inertion agent in explosion suppression applications. In addition, HFC-227ea leaves no residue on valuable equipment after discharge. HFC-227ea contains no chlorine or bromine atoms, presenting no ozone depletion effect, but its global warming potential is high. Its atmospheric lifetime is approximated between 31 and 42 years.
