Advanced And Safety FM200 Fire Extinguishing Agent System
The fire extinguishing effect of FM200 is less affected by environmental factors, mainly due to its fast response time and efficient fire extinguishing ability. However, it is important to note that FM200 has a high global warming potential (GWP), so although it is not harmful to the ozone layer, its environmental impact is of concern. To reduce the environmental impact, steps are being taken to promote the responsible use of FM200 and to explore alternative fire extinguishing agents with lower GWP.
Physical and chemical properties
Chemical Formula: The FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) Fire Suppression System uses a synthetic, organic compound called heptafluoropropane (HFP) as its active agent. The chemical formula for HFP is C3HF7.
1.Colorless and Odorless: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) is a colorless, odorless gas that is difficult to detect without specialized equipment.
2.Non-Corrosive: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) is non-corrosive, meaning it does not react with or damage metals, plastics, or other materials commonly found in buildings and equipment.
3.Low Toxicity: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) has a low toxicity level, which means it is safe for human occupancy when used in accordance with design and installation guidelines.
4.High Boiling Point: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) has a high boiling point of 16.4 °C (61.5 °F), which means it remains in a gaseous state at room temperature and pressure. This property allows it to quickly disperse and distribute throughout an enclosed space to suppress a fire.
5.Non-Conductive: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) is non-conductive, which means it does not conduct electricity. This property makes it safe to use in areas where electrical equipment is present.
6.Low Global Warming Potential: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) has a low global warming potential (GWP) of 0.02, which is much lower than other commonly used fire suppression agents such as halon.
7.Rapid Extinguishing Action: FM200 (Heptafluoropropane, HFC-227ea) can extinguish fires quickly by removing heat from the fire triangle, interrupting the chemical chain reaction, and reducing the concentration of oxygen in the protected space.

Advantages
The FM200 Fire Suppression System is a popular choice for protecting sensitive and valuable equipment and materials in a variety of settings. Here are some of its advantages:
1.Environmentally Friendly: FM200 is an environmentally friendly fire suppression agent that does not harm the ozone layer and has a low global warming potential. It is a sustainable choice that can help companies reduce their carbon footprint and meet environmental regulations.
2.Cost-Effective: FM200 systems are cost-effective compared to other fire suppression systems, such as water-based systems. They require less space for installation and maintenance and have lower cleaning and restoration costs after a fire.
3.Flexible Design: FM200 systems can be customized to meet the specific needs of different facilities and industries. They can be configured to protect large or small areas, and the agent can be stored in tanks or cylinders depending on the space and application.
Packages
We always pack it with polyfoam firstly and then put it into a wooden case. Sometimes, in order to meet with customers or the safety requirement, we will make a pallet for the goods.
