In today’s
global business
environment,
the need for
clean agent
fire suppression
has never
been greater.
Pem All
Critical
electronics are
extremely
vulnerable
to fire.
Pem All
A fast-acting
fire suppression
agent can
prevent
catastrophic
consequences.
Surviving a Fire
The cost of not doing business:
$17,000/sec

Surviving a Fire
The survival of your business
depends on the type of fire
protection you choose.
FM-200 is the Right Choice
FM-200 is the best
protection for your business
• Prevent catastrophic damage
• Protect people
• Resume business quickly

Human Safety
FM-200 is
completely safe
for use in
occupied spaces.
FM-200 Safety Testing
FM-200 has the most comprehensive
toxicity database of any clean agent
• The most thoroughly tested fire
extinguishing agent ever
• Millions of $ invested in testing
Human Safety Concerns
NOAEL – Highest concentration at
which no adverse effect is observed
• Clean agents are safe for occupied spaces
up to the NOAEL
Human Safety Concerns
LOAEL – Lowest concentration at
which an adverse effect is observed
• Use of clean agents up to the LOAEL
can be permitted in occupied areas with
– Adequate time delays
– Pre-discharge alarms
– Class B fuels

Human Safety
FM-200 is so safe,
it has been designated
as a replacement for
CFCs as propellant in
medical inhalers.
Environmental Responsibility
FM-200 is the
environmentally
responsible
choice for clean
agent fire
suppression.
Environmental Responsibility
FM-200 is the responsible choice by
any measure
• Zero ozone depletion potential
• Low atmospheric lifetime
• Efficient use of resources
• Voluntary reduction of emissions
An Environmental Perspective
All human activities have an
environmental impact
An uncontrolled fire will have a
greater impact than the use of a
suppression system
Fire suppression systems rarely
discharge
The Future of FM-200
FM-200 is
the most
accepted and
specified fire
suppression
agent in
the world.
