FM200

Another gas fire extinguishing system is the FM200 system.

This system is chemically known as Heptafluoropropane and is a colorless gas that is stored as a pressurized liquid in FM200 cylinders.

When a fire occurs and when the system is activated, the liquid flows inside the system and turns into gas, and by absorbing heat from the flame and reducing the temperature, it extinguishes it and after extinguishing, it does not leave oily waste and water particles.

One of the advantages of this system is achieving fire extinguishing time in less than 10 seconds.

This gas does not significantly reduce the amount of oxygen, and as a result, it is suitable for environments where humans are present, and after activating the system, it can be removed from space with the help of ventilation measures.
