FM-200 fire suppression system.
FM - 200 Extinguishing System
FM – 200 has established it self as one of the most popular clean fire suppression agents. This is due to its ability to quickly knock down Class A,B and C fires with no risk of thermal shock damage to delicate equipment. FM – 200 is electrically non – conductive and non-corrosive; it leaves no residue.
Another major consideration is the fact that, if discharged, the FM -200 gas does not itself pose any threat to human life, FM 200 exists as a gas in the earth’s atmosphere and is one of the by – products of combustion. It’s use has no environmental impact.

Clean agent
Fm – 200 not only prevents extensive fire damage but also virtually eliminates collateral damage to delicate equipment and instruments from the extinguishant itself :
- FM-200® is a clean agent containing no particulars or oily residues.
- FM-200® does not significantly reduce oxygen levels and is safe for occupied spaces where your most important assets, human resource reside.
- After FM-200® is discharged it can be removed from the protected space by simple ventilation allowing you to resume normal operations quickly.
