Halotron I
is a "clean agent" HydroChloroFluoroCarbon discharged
as a rapidly evaporating liquid which leaves no residue. It effectively
extinguishes Class A and B fires by cooling and smothering and it will not
conduct electricity back to the operator. Halotron is pressurized with Argon gas
and is an EPA approved HCFC blend agent approved on Class A, B and C fires. It
has a low GWP of 0.04 - 0.24, low ODP of 0.014 (twelve times lower than the EPA
maximum allowable ODP of 0.20) and low Atmospheric Lifetime (3 1/2 to 11 years).
Halotron is intended for use in areas formerly protected by Halon 1211 hand
portable extinguishers such as computer rooms, telecommunications facilities,
clean rooms, data storage areas, offices (for protection of sensitive electronic
equipment), boats and vehicles.
Firefighting foam agents
suppress fire by separating the fuel from the air (oxygen). Depending on the
type of foam system, this is done in several ways:
1) Foam
blankets the fuel surface smothering the fire.
2) The fuel
is cooled by the water content of the foam.
3) The foam
blanket suppresses the release of flammable vapors that can mix with the air.
Halotron has
a very low Ozone Depletion Potential.
