The MX 200TM Fire Extinguishing System uses DupontTM FM-200® extinguishing fluid that is stored in the system’s extinguishing agent container(s) until system activation. The container assembly includes a welded steel cylinder filled with FM-200® fluid, assembled with the following components:
Cylinder valve with burst disc
Contact pressure gauge with pressure switch, protective neck ring, protective cylinder cap and valve cap
Three cylinder sizes are available: 130, 270, and 370 lbs. (52, 106, and 147 l).
Cylinders are designed, manufactured, and labeled in accordance with the US Dept. of Transportation Standard DOT 4BW-500. Cylinders can only be installed in the upright position. To create the pressure necessary for the agent to be released, the extinguishing agent container is superpressurized with nitrogen at a pressure of 360 psi (25 bar).
The fire extinguishing agent concentration to be used depends on the fire load expected in these areas.
