Hygood FM-200 fire suppression systems are internationally accepted as providing reliable and effective fire protection solutions for high value assets, processes and locations, as well as the people who work in these protected areas.
FM-200 is an electrically non-conductive alternative to FK-5-1-12, effectively extinguishing fires by removing heat from the fire triangle. It works by preventing combustion and chemically inhibiting re-ignition. FM-200 (heptafluoropropane) and FK-5-1-12 (fluoroketone) differ in composition, with FK-5-1-12 being more environmentally friendly due to its lower Global Warming Potential (GWP).
FM-200 and FK-5-1-12 both safely suppress Class A, B, and C fires in occupied spaces. FM-200 systems are LPCB- and UL-approved, meeting high safety standards while ensuring reliable protection for continuous operations.
When considering both initial and long-term costs, FM-200 tends to be more cost-effective upfront, while FK-5112 offers environmental advantages that may lead to future savings and regulatory benefits. The choice will depend on your specific needs, budget, and sustainability goals.
Heptafluoropropane (HFC-227ea) is a type of halocarbon and is widely used as a clean agent fire suppression system. Here are some of the key properties:
