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
