Fm 200 Extinguishing Systems
FM 200 gas extinguishing systems, which are included in automatic fire extinguishing systems, are preferred due to their colorless and odorless features. FM200, which is filled into cylinders under 25 bar pressure, is stored in liquid form. The reason why FM-200 gas extinguishing systems, which are widely used, are preferred so often is that they do not cause any damage to the area where they are applied visually and do not pose a threat to human health. The gas, which is in liquid form, is applied to the flammable area by spraying and FM200 gas forms a layer by covering the flammable surface in the form of glaciers. FM 200 gas, which has a structure similar to Halon gas, is a physical fire extinguishing system, not a chemical one like Halon gas.
FM200 gas, which is included in FM200 fire extinguishing systems; It is the most effective gas in extinguishing fires with approximately 7% performance it creates with air. Especially because it does not reflect the physical damage left by other extinguishers; It is one of the most used automatic fire extinguishing systems today. This is also an advantage of FM 200.
FM 200 GAS | FM 200 GAS EXTINGUISHING SYSTEMS
In order for the fire that has emerged not to cause too much loss; it must be extinguished as soon as possible. Otherwise, various systems and units in the area where the fire broke out will be destroyed in a short time. FM 200 gas extinguishing systems are valued for their quick response. After the fire alarm is activated, the ignition system automatically intervenes and the flammable surface is sprayed in approximately 8 seconds.
One of the most important features of FM 200 fire extinguishing systems is that it does not leave permanent damage on the flammable surface and various equipment. Serious physical damage occurs on the surfaces where fire extinguishing systems containing water, foam or chemical powder are applied. Due to this problem, FM200 gas was developed and has become widely used because it does not leave physical damage on the surface it is applied to. The most important factor in the widespread use of this system is that no cleaning is required after the fire, especially in areas where FM200 gas is used. It does not pose a problem even in areas where electrical devices are located.
If we list the main features of FM200 gas;
– It is a colorless gas.
– It has a scent-giving feature.
– It has no conductivity.
– It does not harm the ozone layer.
– Since it is not a chemical gas, it does not contain elements that threaten human health.
– FM200 gas, which is a physical gas, does not cause the damage to the flammable surface that other extinguishers do, if used appropriately.
– It spreads in the relevant environment in a short time.
– It is more economically profitable than other extinguishers.
Areas where FM200 fire extinguishing systems are widely used are as follows;
Computer Rooms, Telephone Switchboards, Communication Centers, Museums, Art Galleries, System Control Rooms, Generator Sections, Power Distribution Centers, Bank Vaults, Libraries, Storage Areas such as Tape, Floppy and Disk, Flammable Liquid Storage Tanks such as Acetone
