Clean Agent Fire Suppressions
FM-200/FE-227 FE-25 Sapphire Novec Sinorix
DuPont™
FE-227™ same as FM-200
HFC-227ea is
the leading chemical agent replacement for Halon 1301 in the special hazards
suppression market, globally. DuPont markets HFC-227ea under the trademark of
DuPont™ FE-227™. It has been preferentially selected by the market due to its
unique combination of efficiency, cost, environmental properties, people
safety, and its ability to prevent or extinguish fires. For a system
installation in an existing or new facility, DuPont™ FE-227™ is the Halon 1301
replacement agent of choice.
DuPont™
FE-227™ is:
Safe for
people
A clean agent
that does not leave a residue
Electrically
nonconductive and non-corrosive
An
environmentally preferred alternative to Halon with zero ozone depletion
potential (ODP)
DuPont™
FE-227™ is safe for use in applications where people are normally present
(normally occupied spaces) for both Class-A and Class-B fire assets. DuPont™
FE-227™ is intended to prevent or extinguish fires in situations where
conventional extinguishing agents such as water, dry chemical, and carbon
dioxide are unacceptable because they may cause collateral damage,
significantly interrupt business productivity, or present a safety risk. These
situations exist primarily where there is electrical or sensitive electronic
equipment servicing a critical operation, the loss of which would not only be
the value of the equipment but also the cost of business interruption. Other
situations involve delicate or irreplaceable materials such as those found in
museums, libraries and historical sites.
Applications
where DuPont™ FE-227™ is an excellent choice for a total flood fire suppression
system also include computer rooms, telecommunication switch stations and
facilities, semiconductor manufacturing facilities, data processing centers,
clean rooms, and industrial process control rooms. Other examples of
applications include pleasure craft engines compartments, petrochemical
facilities, chemical storage rooms, paint lockers, and other applications with
hydrocarbon-based materials.
