FM-200 systems..offer cost-effective, safe protection

DuPont’s advanced fire suppression solutions at Intersec

DUBAI, January 14, 2015

DuPont, a leading innovation and market-driven science company, is set to present its leading range of clean agent fire suppressants a trade fair for safety and security in Dubai, UAE.

The 17th edition of Intersec will run from January 18 to 20 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

Bashar Abu Sitta, Fluorochemicals sales manager - Middle East and Africa, said : “Intersec is an excellent platform for showcasing DuPont’s state-of-the-art solutions and promoting greater regional awareness on fire protection.

“When it comes to the protection of sensitive, expensive and mission-critical assets from the ravages of fire, FM-200 waterless fire protection systems are the most widely specified clean agent systems worldwide.

“Since their introduction over two decades ago, FM-200Æ systems have provided the peace of mind that comes with proven performance, a perfect history of safety in use, and the most cost effective waterless fire protection available.”

FM-200 systems offer the most cost-effective, safe and sustainable protection offering the best combination of the properties desired in a waterless agent characterised by extremely low toxicity, said a statement.

FM-200 is being treated differently than HFCs in other more emissive applications due to its negligible emission, as evidenced by the recent regulatory decisions of the US EPA and the revised F-Gas II Regulation, which recognise the value, importance and sustainability of FM-200 and impose no restrictions on its use, it said..

Fire extinguishing systems using agents that do not deplete stratospheric ozone fall under Section EA, Energy and Atmosphere, in the latest version (V3) of the Green Building LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Rating Systems Guides introduced by the US Green Building Council (USGBC) in 2000.

DuPont FM-200 does not deplete stratospheric ozone and hence total flooding fire protection systems utilising FM-200 can contribute to obtaining LEEDÆ certification.

In the Middle East, DuPont offers the FM-200 Falcon Customer Protection Program (CPP). Falcon CPP gives customers in the region the assurance that they have chosen the best fire protection for their critical applications.

The Falcon CPP provides a 20-year warranty for DuPont customers and is currently available in Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen.

FM-200 retains its status as the safest, highest performing, most cost-effective clean agent for a wide range of critical applications, saving lives and protecting property.  It remains a viable choice of clean agent fire extinguishant after the new revised regulations come into force and for the foreseeable future. - TradeArabia News Service
