Why Use Halon & other "Clean Agent Gas" as your fire suppressant?
Halon 1211 (Bromochlorodifluoromethane) and a formulation of Clean Agent Gas, are simply put one of the best fire extinguishants known to man. The term "Clean Agent Gas" refers to Halon 1211,1301, HFC227 and FE36 among other gas formulations that are designed to deprive oxygen from a fire situation effectively taking away the ability of a fire to ignite & burn. This concept of fire suppression has been extremely effective for decades and is still the best way to stop fire in a closed environment and eliminating damage from fighting the fire.
Here are some facts about Halon and these "Clean Agent Gases":
- Clean Agent Gas has three times the fire fighting effectiveness of CO2 extinguishers.
- Clean Agent Gas does not damage the fire area as "Dry Powder" extinguishers do. The saying goes, "whatever is hit with a dry powder extinguisher, whether it is burned or not will usually need to be replaced due to damage from the caustic, corrosive dry powder itself." We understand that in the case of fire, the first consideration is and should be to put out the fire but you also must consider life after the fire.
- Clean Agent Gas is discharged as a liquid immediately converts to a gas with fast breakup into the atmosphere. This makes it easy to direct and it reaches into hard to penetrate places.
- Clean Agent Gas is non-conductive of electricity and is effective on all three classes of fires, A, B and C.
- Clean Agent Gas does not cloud vision so it does not affect the ability of the driver to see an exit in case of a serious accident.
