Safety, effective risk management, and limiting downtime are top priorities for all types of businesses.
Most of these businesses rely on sprinklers for protection against fire, but what they may not realize
is that while sprinkler systems provide a base of protection, the collateral damage caused by water and
the associated clean up are often as damaging and expensive as the fire itself. In fact, 43 percent of
businesses that suffer a significant fire never reopen.
FM-200® waterless fire protection systems can actually detect and eliminate fire within seconds, long
before smoke damage occurs. Unlike water, FM-200 is non-conductive and non-corrosive, so it's safe to use
around electrical equipment. FM-200 is also safe for people that may be working in the area. There is no
residue to clean up and no need to employ expensive disaster recovery processes. After all, you shouldn't
need to protect your valuables from your fire protection system.
Originally developed to replace ozone-depleting fire suppressants such as halon 1301, FM-200 systems are
used to protect computer rooms, communications equipment, automotive assembly plants, medical facilities,
defense equipment, and numerous other mission critical operations. FM-200 has been used in over 100,000
applications worldwide to reduce risk and maximize fire protection. As a matter of fact, priceless works
of art and historical artifacts such as the Eiffel Tower and the original draft of the Declaration of
Independence are entrusted to FM-200 waterless fire protection systems.
Today, business moves at the speed of light. Continuous operations are expected. And unscheduled downtime can mean the end of the road. When it comes to fire protection-speed counts. FM-200® detects combustion at its earliest stages and extinguishes a potential fire in mere seconds ...
