FM - 200

Are you responsible for.......................

- Protecting high value assets?

- Assuring business continuity?

- Security irreplaceable data?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above questions, then you know how quickly fire can devastate a business. Selecting the right fire protection is critical to your success.

PYRO-CHEM has integrated state-of-the-art detection technology and clean -agent chemistry to provide cost effective fire protection for applications containing high-value critical data and sensitive electronic equipment.

Fast.......

PYRO-CHEM offers two programmable releasing panels (PCR-100 and PCR-400IP) that are compatible with fast acting smoke detectors to sense fire in its early stages. Upon system release, the Pyro-Chem system will discharge the FM-200 Clean-Agent Suppression System in 10 seconds or less. The gaseous agent then spreads throughout the hazard area to suppress the fire. This fast reaction can make a lot of difference between a minor incident and a major loss.

Effective..............

Similar to Halon 1301, FM-200 agent extinguishes Class A, B and C fires by interrupting the chemical chain reaction. Additionally, FM-200 agent has the ability to absorb heat, further spreading up the suppression process. In other words when you opt for FM-200 as compared with other Halon alternative agents, less agent can do the same job.

Safe.........

The U.S. EPA has accepted FM-200 for use in occupied spaces at concentrations up to 9% by volume and up to 10.5%  by volume for normally non-occupied spaces. Therefore, people can be evacuated from the protected area in the presence of FM-200 at design concentration.

Clean......

When protecting valuable assets or sensitive equipment, FM-200 agents stands above conventional agents. Unlike dry chemical, FM-200 is a colorless, odorless gas that leaves no residue to clean up. Unlike water, FM-200 is an electrically nonconductive agent that will not short-out electronic equipment. And unlike the very cold discharge of carbon dioxide, FM-200 will not thermally shock delicate circuitry.

Earth Friendly.........

FM-200 will not deplete stratospheric ozone - has a short atmospheric lifetime (31-42 years) - and has minimal global warming potential. As such, it is part of the EPA's SNAP list of acceptable Halon alternatives that are approved for use in total flooding, special hazard, fire suppressed systems.
