Zero Water Damage

FM200 suppresses fires as a gas, leaving no residue or water. Your equipment, documents and data stay dry and undamaged.

Extinguishes in Seconds

FM200 reaches extinguishing concentration within 10 seconds of discharge, stopping fires before they spread.

Safe for Occupied Spaces

At design concentration, FM200 is safe for occupied spaces. No evacuation needed before discharge.

FM200 Gas Suppression Systems

FM200 (HFC-227ea) is one of the most widely used clean agent fire suppression systems worldwide. It extinguishes fires by absorbing heat energy faster than the fire can generate it. C4 Fire & Security designs FM200 systems to SANS 246 standards for server rooms, UPS rooms, archives, laboratories and any space where water or powder suppression would cause more damage than the fire itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. At the design concentration used for fire suppression (7-8% by volume), FM200 is safe for occupied spaces. However, we always integrate detection and alarm systems to alert occupants before discharge as a safety precaution.

FM200 systems require 6-monthly inspections, annual full-system testing, and room integrity verification. The gas cylinders should be weighed annually to check for leaks. C4 provides maintenance contracts covering all requirements.

The gas is non-toxic and leaves no residue, so there is no cleanup needed. However, the system needs to be recharged before it can protect the room again. C4 provides fast recharge services to minimise your exposure window.
