Frequently Asked Questions
Q: FM200 or Novec 1230, which should I choose?

A: Clean agent systems designed to NFPA 2001 with full documentation are accepted for fire safety clearance, and we provide the hydraulic calculations and test reports reviewers ask for.
Q: How fast does the system discharge?

Q: Do you provide design support?
A: Yes. Our engineers prepare hazard analysis, flow calculations, nozzle placement and pipe sizing, then supply the full documentation pack with the equipment.
Q: Can it connect to the building fire alarm?
