How does it work?
FM-200® extinguishes fire via a combination of chemically based fire inhibition and cooling. It is environmentally acceptable, safe to use with sensitive equipment, fast-acting, efficient and effective.
FM-200 is used in total flooding fire suppression systems. It is stored in steel containers, and is super-pressurized with nitrogen to aid in expelling the agent. The discharge time is 10 seconds or less. The maximum fill density ofthe agent storage is 70 lb./ft3.
