Key System Features

LPCB Approved or UL Listed system designs for high assurance projects
Super fast fire knockdown - discharges and suppresses fires within 10 seconds
Zero cleanup and zero water/residue damage, preventing downtime
Acceptable toxicity limits allow installation in occupied control/data rooms
Equipped with standard manual release overrides for emergency operation
Pressure monitoring via integrated pressure gauges for ease of maintenance

Chemical vs Physical Extinguishing

Unlike dry chemicals or water, FK-5-1-12 (fluoroketone liquid) and HFC-227ea gas work by extracting heat from the fire zone at the molecular level, alongside stopping chemical chain reactions. Because the agents gasify instantly upon discharge, they require no cleanup and are non-damaging to electronics, delicate papers, or paintings.

Typical Applications

Clean Agent systems are standard solutions for high-tech spaces where safeguarding data integrity and continuing operations without interruption are critical.
