Fenwal Phoenix FM-200

Fenwal FM-200® Phoenix Series Engineered Fire Suppression Systems are Listed by the Underwriters Laboratory, Inc.(UL) and tested by Factory Mutual (FM). These systems are designed for total flooding in accordance with NFPA 2001, Standard on Clean Agent Extinguishing Systems. These systems have been tested to UL 2166, Standard for Safety; Standard for Halocarbon Clean Agent Extinguishing System Units, and other parameters established jointly by UL and FM. The Phoenix system uses a unique method for propelling the FM-200 agent from the storage cylinder, through the piping system and out of the discharge nozzles. Nitrogen gas pressure from a separate storage cylinder is introduced into the vapor space of the FM-200 cylinder at a controlled rate. This nitrogen pressure acts to propel the liquid FM-200 agent through the pipe at a higher flow rate. It can also propel theFM-200 agent farther through the pipe network allowing for the placement of storage cylinders remotely from the protected hazard. The FM-200 Phoenix is extremely well-suited to applications involving remote agent storage and situations which limit the maximum pipe size to be used. The Phoenix is capable of using smaller pipe sizes to discharge large quantities of FM-200. This system can be successfully applied to many existing Halon 1301 system pipe networks, providing easy retrofit of these systems to a new agent with long-term availability.
