FM200 is a clean fire extinguishing agent rated for use on Class A, B, and C type fires. It is typically used in concentrations ranging from 6.25% to 9% per volume and is offered by all major fire suppression system manufacturers in the USA and worldwide. FM200 works by interrupting the fire triangle at the molecular level. It is odorless, non-conductive, and leaves no residue after release. FM200 has good flow characteristics and can be designed for modular or manifolded (combined) system use.
FM200 is a fire suppression agent containing the compound HFC-227ea, a colorless, odorless, and non-conductive gas. This agent suppresses fires through a combination of chemical and physical mechanisms.
When activated, the FM200 agent is discharged into the protected space and rapidly diffuses, filling the space with a concentration of gas that displaces oxygen required for combustion, effectively extinguishing the fire. The FM200 agent does not leave behind any residue or cause damage to sensitive equipment.
FM200 fire suppression agents offer several advantages over traditional water-based systems. They provide rapid, effective fire suppression without the associated water damage or drying time. They are also ideal for spaces where water could cause additional harm or where downtime needs to be minimized.
In addition to their effectiveness, FM200 agents are environmentally friendly and meet strict regulatory requirements. They have low ozone depletion and global warming potential, making them a popular choice for facilities looking to reduce their environmental impact.
FM200 fire suppression agents are commonly used in server rooms, data centers, museums, medical facilities, and other areas where sensitive equipment, artifacts, and documents need to be protected from fire damage.

HFC-227ea is a clean gas agent that completely vaporizes without residue in the atmosphere and provides excellent electrical insulation in the gas phase. It is suitable for extinguishing electrical fires through total flooding, as well as fires involving fusible solids, liquids, and solid surface fires. It can be applied in computer rooms, communication rooms, transformer rooms, precision instrument rooms, generator rooms, oil depots, chemical flammable material warehouses, online libraries, libraries, archives, treasuries, and other similar environments. HFC-227ea fire suppression systems feature reasonable structure and reliable operation and have been widely used in computer rooms, archives, program-controlled exchange rooms, TV broadcasting centers, financial institutions, government agencies, and other important places.
