FM-200 Fire Suppression Systems

FM-200 Fire suppression systems consist of fire alarm initiating devices, notification appliances and fire suppression agent. Upon activation of initiating devices, fire suppression agent will be discharged to protected premises. Amount of FM-200 fire suppression agent needed to extinguish fire calculated based on volume of a room (computer room, paint booth, art storage etc.) As of today Halon is banned in the United States and Halon systems cannot be installed, but existing Halon Systems can be recharged in case of discharge. FM-200 Clean still can be installed in US, but is banned in other countries such as Denmark and Germany due its negative effect on the environment. In case of activation of Fire suppression system all occupants must leave protected area. All Fire Suppression systems must be inspected semi-annually. Fire Bell provides compete service, inspection and installation of suppression systems.
