u FK5112 China Chemical Composition
FK5112 China belongs to the chemical family of halocarbons and is a fluorinated ketone with a structural formula of CF3CF2C(O)CF(CF3)2. It neither removes nor reduces oxygen, and it only requires a concentration of 4-6% of the room volume to be effective. The chemical compound also evaporates extraordinarily fast, meaning there is no residue left to be concerned about.
FK5112 China complies with UL, ULC, and NFPA 2001, the Standard for Fire Extinguishing Systems. It also meets all requirements of the US EPA SNAP Program for toxicity.
FK5112 China compound has the largest safety margin for human-occupied spaces with a No Observable Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) of 10%. It causes zero ozone depletion, less than one global warming potential, and has a very short atmospheric lifetime of 5 days, all of which make it a significant improvement upon previous clean agent chemicals.
u How Does it Work?
FK5112 China is stored as a liquid and super pressurized with nitrogen. An automatic detection system is set to trigger the release of the FK5112 China when the ignition is in its incipient stage. The gas will discharge within 6-10 seconds of the fire’s detection, going to work before the fire even gets a chance to really start.
Once discharged, FK5112 China’s chemical composition suppresses the fire by cooling effect which quickly removes the heat, enabling it to extinguish the fire within seconds.
Benefits Over Other Clean Agents
The fact that the composition of FK5112 China targets the heat element and not the oxygen element of a fire is just one reason why it is a safer agent in human-occupied facilities, along with the very low concentration required to extinguish a fire.
Following are some of the other benefits of FK5112 China over other clean agents:
Less than 1 on Global Warming Potential
Short atmospheric lifetime (only 5 days)
0 ozone depletion potential
Highest safety margin for human-occupied spaces among clean agents
Less volume of the agent is needed to extinguish a fire which also means less space is needed to store it
Another benefit is that FK5112 China is not part of the Halon 1301 phaseout or the HFC phasedown programs. Consequently, you won’t have to worry about being required to change agents again anytime soon due to environmental or safety concerns.
Ultimately, you can also have the peace of mind knowing that, in the event of a fire and activation of your fire suppression system, your clean agent will neither cause damages to your equipment nor harm your employees or the environment.
u Benefits Over Traditional Fire Suppression Agents
Odds are that if you are investigating clean agents, you already know the numerous benefits and differences they have from traditional fire suppression options. However, here are some of the specific benefits of FK5112 China over other options like water mist:
Extinguishes faster than either water mist or inert gas
Evaporates fifty times as fast as water and leaves less residue than other agents, minimizing downtime
Safe for use with delicate electronic equipment
Safe for delicate and sensitive materials such as paper, art, and artifacts
Requires less space for storage
Potential Applications for FK5112 China
Because FK5112 China’s composition is unique enough to be used on electrical and sensitive equipment and materials, but safe and powerful enough to also protect human life, it can, and is used where technology and sensitive equipment need to be protected, even where human occupants are present.
