Condensed Aerosols NFPA 2010 ISO 15779 |
| Space | Occupied & Unoccupied | Occupied (a) & Unoccupied |
| Safety to humans | Highest Safety Margin Remarks: –Novec 1230 has LOAEL of >10% but at the same time has a LC50 also at >10% (j) – When Novec 1230 is inhaled and crosses the lung air-water interface, can hydrolyse (react with water) and produce Perfluoropropionic acid (k) (l) (g). Perfluoropropionic acid is known as strong acid, which attacks steel, forming iron salt (Ferric & Ferrous). According to its MSDS, it may cause eye and skin burns, severe & permanent damage to digestive tract. Also it’s known as tumor promoter (a carcinogenesis process) and peroxisome proliferator (liver damage). Peroxisome proliferation in liver has been observed at LOAEL = 0.0997% (l) – At high temperatures Novec 1230 decomposes to produce COF2 (carbon monoxide di fluoride or carbonyl fluoride) and HF (hydrogen fluoride). COF2 has a Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) Reg NO. 353- 50-4, which is highly toxic to humans and causes serious Lung Damage with a delayed effect (see attached internet info). HF is a very strong acid with possible hazardous effects for humans and equipment (n)(o) – High pressure cylinders (25, 42 bar) pose a hazard to operating or maintenance personnel |
Non toxic (b) (c) (d) FirePro Condensed Aerosol consists of K2CO3 in suspension in N2, CO2 and H2O. K2CO3 (Potassium Carbonate) is the active extinguishing Agent. Does not react with water. It is soluble in water and the resulted pH is slightly alkaline. No effects on human health are expected when humans are in contact with low concentrations or amounts of the substance. The substance is neutralised in the environment and therefore it is not persistent. Furthermore it does not accumulate in organisms. (q) |
| Residues | No (gas) Remarks: No solid residues but, due to thermal decomposition, liquid residues of a HF solution |
Residues are minute (1-5 microns), easy to remove and non-corrosive to electronics (e) |
| Heat Generation | No heat generation Remarks: Sudden temperature drop caused by discharge may cause thermal shock to sensitive equipment |
FirePro Condensed aerosol utilizes natural ceramic coolant. Stream temperatures are determined (f) |
| 10min hold time (NFPA) |
Guaranteed with every system Remarks: Design very dependent on enclosure integrity significant leakage will cause system to fail. Also, pressure vents must be provided as negative peak pressure of -800 Pa may be created within the enclosure at discharge |
FirePro is a non-pressurised agent. 10 min. hold time is ensured in non.-tight enclosures. No door-fan test required (d) |
| Visibility | May form fog for short time if room temperature below dew point |
Reduced visibility |
| Critical Applications |
Yes Clean. Leaves no particles. Approved for critical applications. Typical applications: Computer rooms, Data storage, Switchgear, Servers, Telecommunication, Electronics. Specified by major power utilities. Remarks: Possible decomposition of Novec 1230 to produce HF which is can be corrosive. |
Yes Particles in the size of 1-5 μm, non-corrosive, no damage to electronics (e), no restrictions (NFPA 2010), typical applications: control rooms, data storage, switchgear, servers, telecommunication, electronics, specified by major power utilities (h) |
| Risk of Conductivity |
No | No Tested for up to 75 kV and installed in HV applications up to 132 kV (i) |
| Risk of Corrosion | No(8) Remarks: Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) which can be potentially produced as a result of decomposition of Novec 1230 is highly corrosive- acid (p). |
No (e) Tested on electronics by accredited Institutes. |
| Chemical Reactivity |
High (reacts with water, alcohols, amines) (g) | Low Chemical reactivity. FirePro Condensed Aerosol consists of K2CO3 in suspension in N2, CO2 and H2O. K2CO3 is stable, non-reactive and slightly alkaline |
| Storage | Contact with water or solvents, either polar or hydrocarbon, could render Novec 1230 fluid ineffective (m) |
FirePro generators are not pressurised and they can be stored under normal conditions without deterioration of their performance. |
| Chemical Decomposition |
– At high temperatures Novec 1230 decomposes to produce COF2 (carbon monoxide di fluoride or carbonyl fluoride) and HF (hydrogen fluoride). COF2 has a Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) Reg NO. 353- 50-4, which is highly toxic to humans and causes serious Lung Damage with a delayed effect (see attached internet info). HF is a very strong acid with possible hazardous effects for humans and equipment (n)(o) |
FirePro patented FPC compound produces upon activation atmosphere gases (N2, CO2 and H2O) and K2CO3. The products of the extinguishing action are the same. |
