NOVEC 1230 Fire System FM200 Fire Suppression System
FM200 Fire Suppression System (HFC-227ea) and NOVEC 1230 / FK5112 Fire Suppression System are advanced clean agent fire suppression systems designed in accordance with NFPA 2001 standards, for fast, reliable, and residue-free fire protection. These systems are widely used in critical environments where water-based fire fighting systems are not suitable.
High Pressure Water Mist Fire Suppression System
A water mist system is a fire protection system which uses very fine water sprays (i.e. water mist).
The small water droplets allow the water mist to control, suppress or extinguish fires by: Cooling both the flame and surrounding gases by evaporation---Absorb Heat&Cooling Displacing oxygen by evaporation---Isolate Oxygen Attenuating radiant heat by the small droplets themselves---Isolate Heat.

FAQ
1. What is the High Pressure Water Mist Fire System and how does it work?
The High Pressure Water Mist Fire System works by converting water into fine mist particles under high pressure. These mist particles absorb heat and reduce temperatures, quickly extinguishing fires while preventing water-related damage to sensitive equipment.
2. What are the main differences between FM200 and NOVEC 1230 systems?
FM200 and NOVEC 1230 are both clean agent systems, but NOVEC 1230 is an environmentally-friendly agent with higher global environmental ratings, making it ideal for environments with strict environmental standards. FM200 is a well-established extinguishing agent suitable for many industrial applications.
3. Which fire suppression system should I choose for my data center?
For server rooms, battery rooms, and UPS rooms, FM200 or NOVEC 1230 are ideal for protecting equipment. For cooling rooms and areas where water sensitivity is a concern, the High Pressure Water Mist Fire System is the best choice.
4. How does the Clean Agent Fire Suppression System help save on maintenance costs?
The Clean Agent Fire Suppression System quickly extinguishes fires without causing damage to equipment, reducing repair and replacement costs. This leads to lower long-term maintenance costs.
5. What are the advantages of a Water Mist Fire System?
The Water Mist Fire System is highly effective at controlling fires while using very little water, which reduces the risk of water damage to electronic equipment. It is particularly suitable for areas like server rooms and sensitive environments where water use must be minimized.
6. Can the system function effectively in high-temperature environments?
Yes, our fire suppression systems are specifically designed to work in high-temperature environments and provide fast responses to potential fire threats, ensuring the safety of the facility.
7. Are you a factory? Can you provide design services?
Yes, we are factory, with 20+years experience of fire system production, fire solution design, technical support, installation guidance, one stop services.
