Operation of the Fixed Fire Suppression System with Fluid 3m® Novec 1230® or Fluid fk5112
- 3M® Novec 1230® Fire Protection Fluid or Fluid FK5112 is stored in steel cylinders connected to a properly dimensioned hydraulic distribution network, provided with diffusers at its ends.
- The dimensioning of the network, quantity of extinguishing agent for fire suppression and diffuser diameters are obtained through hydraulic and isometric calculations elaborated in a specific software and with international approvals.
- The total discharge of the fire suppression agent takes place within 10 seconds after the firing which can be: manual, manual / automatic or automatic by smoke or heat detection.
- The fire suppression system with Fluid 3M® Novec 1230® or FK5112 acts uniformly in the protected environment, completely flooding the environment, fighting the fire principle by remaining active in the environment for up to 10 minutes.
Typical Applications of Fixed Fire Suppression System with Fluid 3m® Novec 1230® or Fluid fk5112
Essential for the protection of environments that house data, equipment or goods of high added value and that require continuous and uninterrupted operation, such as:
- Data centers, internet service providers, internet hosting sites, telecommunications facilities, hospital facilities, control rooms, clean rooms, electrical rooms and replacement of existing Halon 1301 systems.
