The total flooding solution uses FM-200

Firetrace International – best known for its in-cabinet tube based suppression systems – launched a new ‘total flooding’ system at International Firex.

With this addition, the company now claims it offers the widest range of agent cylinder sizes, ranging from less than 0.45kg to 544kg.

“We remain committed to the principle that the majority of business-critical assets are most cost efficiently and effectively safeguarded by providing them with dedicated in-cabinet protection” said Bill Eckholm, president and CEO of Arizona-based Firetrace International. “However, we recognise that there are some applications that may be best suited by a total flooding system. Now the customer can have one company evaluate the best approach and supply the best solution, without the bias of offering only one solution or the other.”

The new engineered and pre-engineered Firetrace Total Flooding system is UL listed and uses DuPont FM-200 which, says the company, is one of the most popular clean fire suppression agents due to its ability to quickly knock down Class A, B and C fires with no risk of thermal shock damage to delicate equipment.
