Hi all,
Some companies are persuading the end users to use condensed aerosol fire
suppression systems instead of Halocarbon/Inert extinguishing agents for local
application or total flooding protection.
I have seen many end users buying aerosol systems for server rooms/archive
rooms and don't use any other kind of protections.
The big companies like Tyco, Kidde, Fike & Chemetron are not offering aerosol
systems and usually say it is not a good and even toxic! they
say halocarbon/Inert extinguishing agents are the only choice.
Aerosol manufactures are usually Asian companies like www.pyrogen.com.my
(Malaysia)or www.firepro.info (Cyprus) www.granit-salamandra.ru (Russia) with
even UL listed products.
Aerosol manufactures say this a new technology and much better than others,
they say the big companies like Tyco, Kidde, Fike & Chemetron have already
invested too much on halocarbon/Inert extinguishing agents and that's why they
are not approving aerosol systems.
I personally think aerosol fire extinguishing generators are good for some
small spaces like electrical cabinets, but they can't be used as a total
flooding solution instead of FM-200 system in a server room as they can't
penetrate everywhere like FM-200 and also they are not clean that much.
Thanks for sharing your valuable experience & professional comments.
Reza
