Hi,

FM200 is a synthetic/chemical fire suppression gas and extinguishes a fire by removing the free radicals or heat elements from the fire triangle. (Oxygen, Heat and Fuel). The typical concentration of an FM200 system is normally between 7.9% to 8.5%.

I know a site named Halon.Us which purchase Halon from public By giving the best price for it.

Fire detection and protection system description?

A system which is networked with extinguishing and detection devices to ensure that the danger of fire is low. Smoke/Heat detectors, sirens, bells, sounders and call points are in place to detect any fire and alert you if there is the need to evacuate. A person can manually activate the call point if they discover a fire. When the fire alarm sounds, extinguishing apperatus such as sprinklers, CO2 gas release will activate, in order to quickly put the fire to a halt.

Do you need 2 cylinders to install in fm200 system per electrical room?

In an FM-200 fire suppression system, the number of cylinders required for installation in an electrical room depends on the specific design and size of the room, as well as the total volume of space that needs protection. Generally, more than one cylinder may be needed if the volume exceeds the capacity of a single cylinder to provide adequate coverage. It’s essential to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and relevant fire protection codes to ensure proper installation and effectiveness. Consulting with a fire protection engineer can help determine the exact requirements for your situation.

Why is engine room of ships isolated in case of fire in engine room?

The engine room is designed so it can be sealed off completely in case of fire, in order to: 1. Prevent the fire from spreading to other areas. 2. Starve the fire of oxygen. 3. Be able to pump in and maintain a fire fighting gas such as CO2 (which smothers it) or Halon (which inhibits combustion).

What is the FM in FM200?

FM in FM200 stands for "Fluorinated Medium." FM200 is a brand name for a clean agent fire suppression system that uses heptafluoropropane (HFC-227ea) as its active extinguishing agent. This compound effectively suppresses fires by interrupting the combustion process while being safe for use in occupied spaces and having minimal environmental impact compared to other fire suppression agents.

Is carbon dioxide the only gas that extinguishes burning?

No, carbon dioxide is not the only gas that can extinguish a fire. Other gases such as water vapor, nitrogen, and certain types of fire extinguishing agents like halon and foam can also be effective in extinguishing fires by either displacing oxygen or cooling the fuel source.


Design OF A fire fighting system for electrical control building?

we have to distinguish between firefighting and fire alarm system. fire fighting is mechanical work (either sprinkler system or Foam or CO2 or FM200) and there is fire alarm or detection system this is an electrical thing that includes ( detectors an fire alarm system) for electrical control building we use FM200.


Is hydrogen used in extinguishing fire?

No, it is not. Because hydrogen is flammable, it will burn in contact of the fire, instead of extinguishing it. So, generally the gas used for extinguishing fire is Carbon dioxide, which is neither flammable nor supports combustion
